Well that point goes to Leti, however I am sad to see the unflattering wrinkles under the bust (where the darts should be) are also very visible on Caroline. Bad design...

The neck sits lopsided on Caroline- I think the fabric weight on the clothed shoulder, combined with the sash weight has pulled it squint, making it look odd. Letitia definitely looks better.

Not the same outfit, but a very similar neckline / cleavage

Maybe Charles insisted ("If you don't recycle, send it over, I've paid for it and will thus have Camila use it rather than it rests in your closet forever"). The bag has indeed just the size and style (handle) Camilla prefers.

Or perhaps it was a Christmas present? "From me to you with my best wishes??"

With a discount, perhaps?. Buy 2 for the price of 1 etc.

My idea was actualler somewhat meaner...after all the purse was used only once, so almost brandnew..and the protective covers had not been removed..

I simply don't understand why more of these women don't use personal dressmakers more - why on earth would anyone want to risk wearing the same outfit as someone else when they're in the spotlight like they are? The whole point is that they are rarefied. I understand that they need to be relatable but working with dressmakers is not that much more expensive and they would even spotlight the dying textile manufacturing in most countries.
Part of it, and I don't meant to sound snobby, is that most of these ladies come from backgrounds where they wouldn't have grown up with getting clothes made for them which is such a shame because there are so many talented seamstresses still doing amazing work and for a fraction of the cost of these often poorly fitted off the rack clothing.
