Amazing the difference color makes; it is a very forgettable dress in that nude/beige tone MM is wearing and it looks like Mary is wearing in the first pic. Good catch! It's actually a style of dress I'd very much like to own; alas, a teacher's salary does not extend to $969.17 dresses. That's a very specific number because I looked it up on the Beulah website, by the way!  You saved me to trip to their website then! I love Sophie and Beatrice's colors; I didn't even notice it was the same dress because it looks so good on both of them in the very different tones. They both accessorized it very well too. It's a really flattering, adaptable dress - I quite like Mary styling the white one with a different belt. Also, although Beulah isn't cheap, it's less expensive than, say, Catherine Walker bespoke ahem, and the company has v good ethical credentials. There's a dark green version of the same dress we haven't seen yet - I wonder which royal lady will snap it up? Wow, so many royals, one dress . . . who knew?  It's also a classic style that will hold up for years. It would look great on Zara too. |

That’s a great catch and a pretty dress! I like it better on Mary. It kind of washes Zara out.
I think it's the lighting, because here she looks fabulous in it.  It does look well on Zara too, and we don't usually see her in smaller prints. I'd like to have that dress. Lighting and background make all the difference. Mary was not in strong sunlight and had the colorful rhododendrons behind her. |

At the same event: Sophie Winkleman, the wife of Lord Frederick Windsor, the son of Prince Michael of Kent. & Princess Beatrice   Probably the two best dressed there!! Just saw on Royal Fashion Police that the dresses are by Beulah London. M-M wore the beige short-sleeved version of the same Beulah 'Ahana' dress to Roman Garros  https://www.beulahlondon....na-beige-crepe-midi-dress  |

Sally Ann Provan boater hats worn by PRincess Eugenie in 2018 Speaking as a super-fair redhead, I look at the silliness that is Eugenie's hat and my first thought is what a goofy sunburn line that would give! That is a ridiculous design...I like it much better with the gap closed. |

It's less avant garde but more flattering in kate's version |

Not quite two royals in the same dress, but Mme. Macron and Beatrice wore the same dress: Bea to the funeral, Brigitte to the state reception.

Indeed? I haven't noticed. And I can't find a decent picture of the dress....
