MEGHAN'S VEIL BELONGED TO A DIFFERENT DRESS SHOCK! WEDDING GOWN FASHION EDITION SPECIAL

What was missing from Meghan Markle's underwhelming wedding dress? The $157,000 dress that left everyone befuddled and deflated was criticized more than praised. The first big royal wedding since beloved Prince William & Kate's absolutely show stopping gown that was impeccable by all accounts, was bound to let a few people down but the Meg's wedding dress was essentially a disaster. So, I shopped alternatives for her, let's take a look! Also, the perfection of Catherine, Princess of Wales (Kate Middleton's) Wedding Gown one of the most beautiful, and famous, wedding dresses of all time and what makes it so special. Plus, Princess Eugenie's unique gown, Princess Beatrice's sentimental choice giving new life to the late Queen Elizabeth II's dress, Pippa Middleton's wedding gown, and the Jordanian Royal Wedding dresses! We also cover the reception dresses of Meghan Markle & Princess Kate, only one of which has been kept almost completely private, rarely seen and mysterious.
Today's Fashion Edition is full of some of the most beautiful moments in these ladies' lives and one highly problematic gown which we examine to see what exactly went wrong.
Upcoming 2+ part Fashion Editions focus on Royal Wedding Guest's fashion choices, as there are a relatively equal balance of excellent and absolutely disastrous styles. You won't want to miss it so be sure to subscribe!

    I think Beatrice's dress was my favorite. In the sense of how the dress itself looks and how insanely flattering it was on Beatrice, but the history behind the dress, etc. Then again I am a sucker for the stories about the past history of things. In fact, the only time I had an actual wedding I wore my grooms grandmother's dress (not a single alteration necessary) & his wonderful grandfather walked me down the aisle. Such lovely people. I'm glad that my crap marriage lasted long enough that at least his grandparents didn't see the end 😔.

    True. The whites were different shades of white. The dress was a blinding white that didn't fit at ALL, and the veil was more like an eggshell, and it flew everywhere, was way too long. The veil and dress didn't mesh well together at all. Two completely different looks that she put together. Plus, then her hair was a mess. That's the first thing I saw when she got out of the car. I said, "Why didn't she get her hair done"? It was sticking out all over the place. Not sure why she didn't GET her hair done by someone else? She needed some height to her hair, and volume. I liked the tiara, but that too didn't seem to fit well. She didn't wear the entire outfit very well. Not sure why she was so stubborn about not asking for help and not wanting input from experts. That was and still is ridiculously juvenile and insecure.

    Markle's dress looked to me like the tailoring staff were so tired of her that they let the dress look like that. It was the most unflattering dress I've ever seen. Her hair was atrocious, and the white color for a 2nd wedding was laughable. The veil made no sense either.

The entire dress was plain, just a straight, white plain TUBE of a dress. I though it looked like a roll of toilet paper. It just had NO "Wow" effect at all. For all that money, she could have had a spectacular dress, but this was what SHE wanted. Hmmmm. And, her taste in fashion hasn't improved since. So strange.......

It does look incredible on display though. Her ugly wedding look is actually what prompted me to google my way into the infamous Meghan Markle iceberg. I just wanted an explanation as to why such a pretty princess was sent out in something so abysmal. 😂 All the copycat and inspiration looks that followed Meghan’s wedding wear looked so much better then the original. They took her intended “concept” and improved it. That’s rather unusual lol. I’ve never seen a case where the original is actually the botched version!

    My favorite is Beatrice’s dress bc it was so sentimental, and so beautiful in its original form when the Queen wore it and in its updated form with puff sleeves. Next of course would be Catherine’s wedding gown which was perfect in every way for the occasion and her frame. Eugenie purposely drew attention to her back so as not to hide her scoliosis surgery scar which I thought was great. I didn’t love Meghan’s wedding gown - it did nothing for her figure, but with better tailoring it would’ve been fine. You’re right about the veil but I think she wanted something symbolic (flowers?) embroidered so OK. I did like her reception dress. I think Meghan has a certain image of herself in her mind when choosing her outfits and achieving that image outweighs selecting clothing that actually fit or flatter and she may be thinking just because something is a high fashion designer label it must be right, when often it’s not.

    Meghan was told Royal Protocol called for a colored fabric for a divorced bride. The Queen suggested a pale blue and NO VEIL. You can see how upset HMTQ was when Meghan entered the chapel. Meghan wanted St. George’s Chapel sprayed with fragrance, when told no, she wanted air fresheners hung up. When told no, she demanded a red carpet… again told no, then we got into the demands for her choice of tiara. The Queen’s assistants were trying to explain to her that brides marrying into the line of succession don’t wear colored stones. St. George’s Chapel is the private church of the Monarch. HMTQ went there to pray nearly every morning she was in residence. So, if you don’t see a smile on the faces of the Royal Family, they were worn out with battles from Meghan and Harry.

That’s the best she’s ever looked. Her gown initially didn’t wow me but the more I see it the more I like it. The back is divine. And her tiara was my favorite of any royal bride, ever. It’s absolutely stunning. All 3 of them looked perfect because they were true to themselves and were genuine. They weren’t just playing dress up with designer clothes like Migraine was….

    Hi Brit here. The veil took 500 hours to create. It was hand embroidered with the national flowers of the 53 Commonwealth countries and poppies to represent California. I think it was beautiful (but the dress hideous) but I believe the Queen questioned why Markle was getting married in white!. Markle did not respect the generosity of the RF, (attention given to her choices and cost of her wedding) whilst initially welcomed here with open arms. The ongoing disrespect, lies and cruel spite of the Sussex's makes me want to weep especially for the late Queen Elizabeth.

    I was a 13 y/o kid when Charles and Lady Diana were wed, I remember looking at her dress and thinking wow, that dress is an absolute wrinkle bombed mess. My mom would have told me to wear something else, it was too wrinkled to be seen out in. But Lady Diana herself looked just gorgeous.

    The highlight of the royal weddings is bride's arrival and seeing the wedding dress for the first time. Catherine's was so beautiful! The Jordanian wedding ceremony dress shows how stunning simplicity can be. Both Diana's and MM's were disappointing for different reasons. Diana's was of the time and her age - she was barely out of her teens, and they were really selling the 'fairy tale princess' angle in the press. MM's was ill-fitting but also BORING as hell. It looked like a bed sheet. The reception dress was batter, but not the best choice for someone with shoulders like a linebacker.

    I loved Catherine's & Beatrice's gowns; timeless chic & beauty. Eugenie's & Pippa's were also very nice. At first I was a bit let down that Eugenie didn't have a veil but in hindsight, she made the perfect choice. That tiara was incredible & didn't need a veil, it was a show stopper all on its own. No wonder Smeghan wanted to wear it so badly. Neener neener, you might be marrying #5 in line to the throne, but Queen Elizabeth had already promised that exquisite tiara to her royal born granddaughter by blood, not some LA born middle aged washed up mattress actress who schemed & swindled her way into Harry's trousers. I heard that the reason why Smeg's dress looked so horrible was because she kept demanding changes constantly, up until the very last moment. She refused to have additional fittings, the last one being months before the big day. She kept throwing fits & wanted changes but didn't bother to show up for a final fitting. Ridiculous, but I'm glad it turned out so badly. She THOUGHT she was Princess Ariel on her wedding day, but in reality she ended up looking like Vanessa/Ursula instead. I also heard that the Queen wanted her to wear a more appropriate color, considering she was already a divorcee. She showed up in that blindingly white dress much to the Queen's surprise & disapproval. The veil was just her trying to cosplay Diana again. She knew she couldn't do a 25 foot train like Diana's dress so she went for an over the top long veil. Something that's reminiscent of Diana's iconic gown, but in her own (non existent) style & delusions of being a modern independent woman. She made a fool of herself for all the world to see - Bravo, well done! 👏😆

    I have always disliked Princess Diana’s wedding dress. The color, the style, the size. It was awful and didn’t fit her well at all. From the neck up, she was stunning though. Princess Eugenie’s dress was such a thoughtful, economical choice. She looked very princessy in it!! I just thought she wore the wrong tiara for the dress. Princess Catherine’s dress will forever be iconic. Classic, perfectly tailored, and perfectly appropriate for the future Queen consort. Meghan’s dress could’ve been pretty with a softer fabric and better tailoring. I still don’t love the style, but you can’t dress for everyone. I also thought the color was a bit inappropriate. Few people can wear stark white (my daughter’s dress was a subtle blush), but it did her no favors for her coloring. Especially for her third marriage. The veil was the worst of her ensemble because it felt like she was mimicking Princess Diana in a way. So over-the-top and unnecessarily gauche (and yes, I felt that way about PD’s too!). A simple veil (without a blusher) that fell just past the waist would’ve been more appropriate. A neat updo would’ve helped too.

    Nice breakdown of the various wedding gown looks. I agree with your assessment. As a contemporary (in age) of Princess Di, I can attest to owning a Vogue pattern version of her wedding gown in green satin. It was beautiful, but rather voluminous. MM’s reported behavior leading up to the wedding was so cringe worthy. No one with manners behaves like she did. You don’t have to be in the aristocracy to understand how to act graciously. She has never,then nor now, shown gratitude for anything. Consequently, it’s easy to find fault with almost everything she does.

    Even in the 80's I thought Diana's wedding dress was awful, it was really badly creased when she stepped out of the car, her veil was 153 yards long and it just looked like a puddle in the official photographs, the ruffle round the neckline was too much with the big puffed sleeves.

That is the embodiment of the perfect wedding dress imo. As for Meghan, I was also star struck… by the fact her wedding dress wasn’t fitted at all. This is what shocked me the most. The dress was supposed to be a sleek look yet it looked so bulky on her, the skirt especially was so stiff idk it was so frustrating 😂

    Meghan was told that she should NOT wear white or have a veil. (this being her second or third marriage. BUT, of course she could NOT follow protocol or instructions. She went ahead and ordered the OTT veil with the Commonwealth flowers embroidered on the edges with the same motif as the Spencer tiara; then sent H to ask if she could wear it. Uncle Charles S said 'no, she's not a Spencer, and not marrying in to the Spencer family' That is why the veil is completely 'out of tune' with the awful dress. Also why HMTQ had that look on her face when she saw M.

She says "don't be ashamed of your scars." That is a true Princess talking. I believe scoliosis is one of the charities she supports. Also to be noted, her sister Beatrice not only wore the Queen's gown, but also wore the Queen's own Wedding Tiara. That was such a sign of Granny Approval.

    Meghan's dress was inappropriate for the occasion. The neckline especially was all wrong. Because the Royal Weddings are in the church, and for these churches the shoulders need to be covered, that Meghan's were barely covered is actually quite offensive, and as she was marrying in the Queen's church it was not only an insult to the church but to the Queen. On the drama around Meghan, well most of it is not surprising, but the most interesting one was on the tiara. There are multiple stories, but the first one I heard was after the tiara had been decided on, and it was that Meghan didn't have an appointment and just turned up demanding the wedding tiara for a 'rehearsal' with her hairdresser, she was told no. I remember a number of people wondering why she didn't do what Catherine's hairdresser did for her wedding hair practices and just buy a cheap plastic tiara to practice with. I think that showed the type of person Meghan was, and it makes many of the stories about her in the lead up to the wedding quite believable. Oh, and the drama over the bridesmaids was apparently first reported when someone overheard one of the dressmakers telling her friends about it in the pub! Lesson there is twofold, one don't piss off people because they will gossip, and two don't talk about stuff like that in a pub because it can be overheard. Anyway, this is the first time I have seen your channel, about to go and look at your other videos, this was very good and interesting. Also, I agree with you on your thoughts about the dresses.
