    Lovely though I would have liked a pearl necklace on the collar. The swish of the dress looks good. The shoes, if only the vamp was a bit lower.

  5. La princesse Kako est magnifique dans cette robe dont la jupe à plis doit montrer du mouvement quand elle marche ; j’ai essayé de mieux voir ses boucles d’oreilles mais en vain ?!

  6. While this is still on a very conservative side of dressing, she almost always manages to look as lovely and youthful as possible. I like her very much.

  8. The skirt of her dress has nice movement and swish, very feminine and elegant overall. The bodice and neckline of the top, I love as are the sleeves, very pretty. Her hair back off her face, looks splendid. She has such a lovely face, beautiful smile and engaging personality. She is always enthusiastic, interested and gives 100% to all her visits, a marvelous asset to the Imperial family.
    Any reference to her facial features that may not appeal to the commenter on this blog are really unnecessary, not interesting and lacking in substance pertaining to fashion. Thank you.
