First it was a tuxedo that combined black pants and a white blazer. That was in 1984. The event, a concert of Genesis in the city of Birmingham. The picture was news in some British newspapers. It was not usual for a woman to wear such a masculine piece (although Yves Saint Laurent had already immortalized his iconic tuxedo nearly two decades ago). Less usual was that he was worn by a member of the kingship. Of course, Diana of Wales was never another princess. Four years later, Lady Di arrived at Wembley Stadium – where a dog competition took place – dressed, again, in a tuxedo. This time, the suit was all black with an emerald green vest. The director of both ensembles was the English designer Margaret Howell. Princess Diana – the wife of Charles, the mother of William and Harry, who died in an accident in Paris in 1997 – was an avant-garde woman; his style remains, decades later, a reference; and his image appears from time to time compared to that of his daughters-in-law.
It's been 30 years since Diana chose to wear a tuxedo. But the piece, in 2018, it seems that it is not yet the most compatible with the protocolary and public life of the British royal family.
"Meghan was told that she had to stop dressing like a Hollywood star and start dressing up as a member of royalty," a source told Reuters. Costumed team who visited Kensington Palace in recent weeks. .
All indications are that the costume choices of a duchess / princess / queen should be closer to the classic concept of femininity. This is, in short, take pollera, dresses and opaque stockings. Or, at least, that's what Queen Isabel II prefers and, of course, she's waiting. That's what the Daily Mail says.
The conflict is that the style – modern, sophisticated, Hollywood, highly praised by more specialized fashion voices – is made up of clothes that are considered masculine. In recent months, the duchess wore many pants and, from time to time, accompanied them with blazers.
Who wears the pants?
The images show her smiling, relaxed, charismatic, at the right point between sober and striking, very precise in her choices. Some of the recent photos show it with the following models: a trench-type dress from the Canadian nonie house; oversized pants with a Ralph Lauren striped shirt; an ivory shirt from Givenchy; a dress with belt and Altuzarra buttons with a blazer on the shoulders; a black suit from Alexander McQueen. Markle understands that of course, if you have to be smart, adaptation is a safe place. And if you add to that total access to the best fashion house in the world, failure is difficult.
But in this world of extreme demand that is British royalty with the fashion of understanding is not enough. You must be up to it. And for that we must adhere to a series of rules that are, among many others, the following: give up, forever, his acting career (Markle has been protagonist for several seasons of the Costumes series) ; not having social networks or blogs (the Duchess had the site The Tig from which she had to give up when she got engaged to Prince Harry); Of course, do not take selfies; paint your nails light colors; that the skirts are never above the knee and that the skin of the legs is always covered with socks; Wait for the queen to take the first bite and start eating.
Among them are the evidence, the protocol, and the others, which are not written. Kate Middleton, already a veteran in this area of royalty, had to expand her skirts because, in a moment, the queen felt that she was showing too much skin. Markle had some acts of rebellion in those real life months like, for example, not wearing a hat when he had been informed that Isabel II was going to wear one. But, now it seems that the guideline comes from her husband who, although having always been rather unorthodox in his behavior, seems to have matured. According to the Daily Mail, Markle has already shown his frustration with the inflexible traditions of the royal house. For the moment: it is forbidden to smoke.
