Downright affordable. Too bad, I don't really like it. Which surprises me, because quite frankly I am such a sucker for Navy blue and dots, that any navy blue polka dot dress in a rather classic blouse-dress fashion should be a winner...

Agreed. The dress has no style. Maybe it’s the sleeves. Are puff sleeves back in style? Say 1983 style? Vic in Sweden just wore puffy sleeves.
At this rate, people will soon be saying Diana’s wedding dress is “timeless” and “iconic” and not “ 80s” and “doesn’t age well.”
I think that the polka dots are not round is what is not working for me.

Puff sleeves are back. At least the last 2 year's is hard to find a long sleeved dress or sweater without a slight puff. Overall I think it's a cute dress, even though I am very anti-puff sleeve.

I'm Ok with the colour and pattern but the rest is not very designer ... but then just look at Euro royals now... imo a safe choice for a mother of the son who had centre stage on the day. Family as a whole looked good and a church occasion imo was not a place for expensive fashion so I guess they all get a pass

IMO, the sleeves are very Popeye ... in shape (skinny and then a billow) and length (seems unrealistically long)

I rather like the dress myself. I'm a sucker for polka dots and if they are blue I'm a goner.  Her shoes are even good this time.

I think it would have looked better had she not buttoned the top button. I'm a bit of a sucker for a puffed sleeve, although I love the Popeye analogy here!

I saw on a social media account that Mary's red blazer from her Maryfonden engagement was an Alexander McQueen blazer priced at just short of $2000, is this true?
Nice blazer, but H&M or Zara would do a much cheaper version, no?
