Royal Family Fashion Faux Pas That Were Recorded on Camera

When Kate Wore a Green Dress

We get your perception: Duchess Kate’s outfit appears to be modest, fashionable, and breathtaking, correct? Indeed, we concur. However, despite being suitable for other events, she made a significant fashion blunder by wearing this dress to the 2018 BAFTA Awards. This is because all of the attendees of this event expressed their support for the #MeToo movement by wearing black as a sign of unity. Fans expressed their dissatisfaction when Kate appeared wearing a green outfit.

This undoubtedly stems from the royals’ need to uphold political impartiality. However, observant followers did notice the presence of a black belt that accompanied the green garment.

When Camilla’s Dress Blew up in the Wind

Kate Middleton is familiar with experiencing a situation reminiscent of Marilyn Monroe, but she is not the sole member of the Royal Family to have encountered a battle with the wind. In 2018, Camilla Parker-Bowles also had a similar situation when she participated in Princess Charlotte’s baptism. Despite receiving praise from fashion experts for her sky blue garment, Camilla Parker-Bowles did not anticipate the unfortunate event of the wind blowing it up.

Adding to the problem, Camilla wore both a large hat and a handbag at the same time. Consequently, she lacked sufficient hands to maintain control over everything.

When Meghan Didn’t Remove Her Tailor’s Stitch

Are you acquainted with the technique of a tailor’s stitch? You typically find these stitches on coats and in pockets. This stitch is intended to temporarily fasten fabric parts together while the garment is on the hanger, awaiting sale. Subsequently, after donning the garment for the first time, you undo the stitch, allowing the individual pieces of fabric to detach from one another.

However, people promptly criticized Meghan Markle upon observing that she had neglected to remove the tailor’s stitch from her coat in 2018. While it may not be a significant fashion blunder, it did manage to irritate several fans.

When Prince Philip Wore a Kilt

Throughout the years, the Royal Family has openly shown their fondness for Scotland. The Queen thoroughly enjoyed her leisure time at Balmoral, while Prince William pursued his higher education in Scotland. Prince Philip demonstrated his affection for Scotland in 2012 by wearing a kilt at the Highland Games. Nevertheless, he appeared to have overlooked the fact that he was donning the kilt when he took a seat beside his spouse.

When Queen Elizabeth II Broke Her Purse

Every ensemble requires accompanying accessories, and the deceased Queen Elizabeth II was renowned for consistently carrying a handbag wherever she went. Although she received many compliments for her selection of exquisite handbags, aesthetic appeal does not always align with functionality. In 2010, the ex-sovereign became aware of this fact and had to handle the consequences of her handbag strap snapping during a prominent occasion.

Exhibiting her true regal demeanor, she attempted to nonchalantly dismiss the entire incident and give the impression that it was of no consequence. However, the cameras captured the entire incident and disseminated the images globally.

When Princess Mary Got Her Shoe Stuck

The British Royal Family is not the only one to experience fashion disasters. It appears that members of royal families in neighboring countries experience similar issues with their clothing, as was the situation in 2017 when Princess Mary of Denmark encountered difficulties with her shoes. Despite donning exquisite high heels for a public occasion, she swiftly found herself standing shoeless on the grimy sidewalk after her heel became ensnared in a crevice in the concrete.

Princess Mary stooped down and retrieved her shoe from the crevice, demonstrating her commendable willingness to perform this menial task independently rather than delegating it to a royal assistant.

When Kate’s Dress Came Unwrapped

It is worth noting that Duchess Kate has a strong affinity for wrap dresses. Over time, she has ignited a revolution in the popularity of wrap dresses, leading to an increasing number of her fans opting to purchase comparable styles. In 2013, she showed the public that wearing such a garment can be dangerous, especially for a famous woman. The world saw her dress unwrapped.

When Meghan Wore a Creased Wedding Dress

The wedding of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry was undeniably a memorable occasion. That day, she assumed the title of Duchess of Sussex and officially joined the Royal Family. However, some of her followers also remember this day because of a fashion faux pas. More precisely, they criticized and belittled the newly appointed duchess when they noticed wrinkles on her bridal gown.

The dress underwent alterations prior to the wedding to accommodate Meghan’s breathing, despite her apparent indifference towards the wrinkles. This could have caused the formation of wrinkles.

When Camilla’s Slip Was Exposed by the Wind

Regal women frequently become prey to nature’s forces, as seen. To avoid the discomfort caused by the wind lifting their robes, many royal women wear slips beneath their garments to preserve their modesty. However, it remains mortifying when the general public witnesses a momentary lapse, and that is precisely what occurred to Camilla in 2018 during her attendance at the NHS Heroes Awards.
