Kate's power move at the BAFTAs: Royal's fairytale Gucci gown, princess hair and the late Queen's earrings were a 'strategic' reminder that she is the future of The Firm amid Andrew chaos, stylist say
The Princess of Wales glamorous BAFTAs look was a 'masterclass in understated power dressing' and a 'quietly strategic reminder of stability' following Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor's arrest, a stylist has said. 'In a moment where the Royal Family is under intense scrutiny, her appearance felt quietly strategic, a reminder of stability, grace and the composure expected of a future Queen,' she explained. When Margaret died in 1942, she left a spectacular bequest of jewels to Elizabeth, the Queen Consort, later the Queen Mother. The outing served as a reprieve from a turbulent time for the Royal Family. In events that rocked the Royal Family, he became the first senior royal to be arrested in modern times.
