Philippos - What's The Deal?

[Celia]

Too bad Elena's marriage didn't work out.  He was really in charge of her wardrobe (as we can tell).

So it seems her father actually dropped off Forbes' billionaire list in 2018, but I'm sure they are still super rich. Someone has gone to town giving her her own wiki page as "Princess Nina of Greece and Denmark" and going into detail about the wedding.

Having watched the video of the arrivals, got to say huge respect to Queen Sofia for simply ignoring the photographers asking for her to remove her mask.

Someone *really* doesn't approve of a Greek "royal"!

Yes the brides father is a billionaire I think

Must say knowing some about the "American Brides" (see "In a Gilded Cage" by Marian Fowler) whose fathers bartered them in marriage>   $$$ for a title, happy to see it's now gender neutral.  Good to the couple look so happy.  He certainly looks smitten and she's glowing.   

I'm still stuck on the Jack pics, I hope it isn't a clue to his real personality. Before they were married I'd never seen him not all perky and smiling, now his whole stance and persona feels different (I first noticed at DOE funeral, he wasn't as comforting to her as I expected).  Hope it's just me.  I want those girls to be secure and happy, their parents are a mess, they deserve a safe harbor.

I noticed that when they left the service on the steps the York girls didn't seem to be particularly chatty with each other or standing together much. Not trying to be a conspiracist but felt a bit off to me.

October 24
Post wedding - Philippos and Nina host lunch for their wedding guests in Athens

[Principessa]

I keep wondering where Theodora's fiance is

[LadyBunion]

odd outfit to wear to the lunch - everyone else wearing lighter weight clothes and this is neither here nor there length and style wise

[Princess MS]

Yes... looks more suitable to a cool weather day much more north than Athens .... I’m almost sorry for her but she is going for something that doesn’t suit her..... style and fabric and everything

The most items I have seen her wearing weren't my taste. Or as in many cases weren't just the right thing for the occassion etc. The outfit she was wearing at the after wedding lunch would be more suitable for an older lady in a colder surroundings/climate IMO.

Dishers, I think we have found our new Royal fashion victim.

She should make for good sartorial dishing.

A little confession:

My first sighting of Anne Marie's dress during the religious wedding ceremony reminded me of garbage bags. Later on the dress grew on me, but still...

Well it seems we have all learnt one thing from this wedding - money really doesn't buy taste.
