On the evening of November 6, 2026, Prince Albert II and Princess Charlène attended a gala concert at the Grimaldi Forum, celebrating the 60th anniversary of the Prince's Carabiniers Orchestra. Founded in 1966 at the initiative of Prince Rainier III and Princess Grace as a small ceremonial band, the ensemble has since evolved into a fully fledged orchestra.
Primarily military personnel, the musician Carabiniers combine their duties in service of the Princely Family and the Prince's Palace with a passion for music, performing at venues throughout Monaco and around the world. For the occasion, Princess Charlène wore a silk tuxedo dress by Ralph Lauren.

Quite stunning. An avant garde look.
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely sublime. Love the outfit and the hair and makeup. LRB
ReplyDeleteSublime - “not to be excelled; supreme” - is as high as praise can go! (I don’t see the same… I think she looks great but reserve sublime; but I love your enthusiasm.)
Delete"Sublime" has yet another - kind of: additional undertone, something like "refined" , something that is awe-inspiring not by being all too evident or striking or overwhelming in an everyday sense of the word. Maybe the Latin origin helps to understand: sublimare means 'elevate'. In this sense, I think the word fits this appearance composed of Charlene + this really very, very simple outfit quite well. Not everybody could wear this with the same effect.
Delete9;02 your definition of
Delete"sublime" not taking into account
Delete9:02 Your definition of "sublime" is superficial in that it does not take into account its etymology and level of significance/ use in different fields.
Charlene’s having fun with daily hair changes I think. I wish she’d open the top of the blouse, it would look so much better… that said, I see that she’s chosen the fully buttoned look as her unique fashion choice so who am I to argue with a human who has their own valid choice! She’s certainly on a Ralph Lauren kick this week .., it’s feeling more like marketing than anything else. I’d prefer rewears of her substantial wardrobe of suits.
ReplyDeletePrincess Charlene is gracieux..."GRACE"
ReplyDeleteFabuleuse
ReplyDeleteSublime look. I love the white blouce under the dress. The earrings are just stunning. Hair and make exquisite. Princess Charlene has really been on a roll these last few years. She’s never looked as good as she does these days.
ReplyDeleteLowri.
* blouse (not blouse)
Delete* blouse (not blouce)
DeleteAgree with everything you wrote evept for the blouse - I wopuld prefer that dress without it.
DeleteBlouse is nice.
DeleteWowee! She puts the men's suits to shame. As you can tell.. I love her look
ReplyDeleteI like it better on the model, but the model is slouching with bad hair. Her hair is good and she's wearing excellent earrings.
ReplyDelete23:16 I like the outfit and am glad you pointed us to the model, who also looks good. But her hair looks healthy and clean … I don’t understand how you call that “bad”?
DeleteCharlene is utterly beautiful. She has really come into her own these past couple of years. The suit is appropriate but beautifully styled with feminine details like fabulous earrings and perfectly curled hair.
ReplyDeleteYes she has had her look/looks almost continuously worked on since her name hit the media linked to the Prince. Her changes have been radical.
DeleteWow! She looks amazing!
ReplyDeleteShe looks fabulous!
ReplyDeleteI like the flip of her hair rather than the dangling curl wisp.
ReplyDeletePrincess Charlene never disappoints. Every single detail of her outfit is absolutely to perfection. Soft make up matches her whimsical hairstyle . She makes her fashionable style appear so effortless.
ReplyDeleteThis silk tuxedo dress by Ralph Lauren looks incredibly beautiful. I prefer this outfit worn by the Princess. Her white silk blouse worn with this outfit, is a clever choice. These earrings are stunning. Her hair looks gorgeous, soft, and natural, makeup on point. One of the most lovely presentations, she has the height to really wear this so well. Love her shoes.
ReplyDeleteThe pink jacket looks good here, the buttons are interesting, all different, clever addition and adding interest, which it did to me! I like the style and design of this jacket. The fit is wonderful, love the fit of her pants.

Such a beautiful "tuxedo" look - yet so feminine! hair, jewellery and exquisite makeup, all coalescing in a unique look that seems straight off a runway, yet belongs only to her.
ReplyDeleteWhen Charlene gets it right, no-one else comes close. Lyra
D'accord avec vous à 100%

Black tights would have given a more sophisticated look. The dress is elegant the way it is worn by the model but with the addition of a white shirt it gives 5* hotel maitre d' vibes!
ReplyDeleteThe silk tuxedo dress is stunning and combining it with a white shirt is perfect for a concert.
ReplyDeleteCharlene has beautiful taste, wonderful figure and lots of money ! however, I wish she would re-wear some dresses from the past as Queen Mary of Denmark does so brilliantly
ReplyDeleteJe n'aime pas faire de comparaisons avec sa belle-mère, Grace Kelly, mais sur ces photos, la princesse Charlene est aussi belle et gracieuse que ne l'était sa belle-mère. Cette coiffure et cette couleur lui vont à merveille et quel port de reine, dans l'avant-dernière photo. Lorraine G. Fortin
