Here is something in the NY Post about Charlene dumping Armani. I'm sure that she is thrilled that she was able to fight to the top and also get her photo from the wedding in the paper. She was the first story in Page Six while Kate had a tidbit on her dress as the second. Of course, Kate was on page one with the banner headline. www.nypost.com/p/pagesix/royal_fiancee_snubs_armani_SNxSL1ggmQnhvjGzpoVHTJ

Thanks a lot for the article Scout! Charlene's dumping of Armani in the manner that she did it is so typical Charlene and so typical of a con artist user. Charlene's dumping, snubbing and insulting of Armani - with whom she was paid ambassador for - started with the day of the engagement announcement when she chose to wear an Akris dress for her official engagement photo. One day people will realize who and what this girl is all about - a bitchy selfish arrogant self-absorbed narcissistic con artist who is NOT loyal to ANYONE but Charlene Lynette Wittstock.
Scout, the title says it all - this article was not meant to be a compliment to Charlene. Also, read the statement from the Armani rep - they are not pleased with Charlene. I wouldn't be surprised if Charlene will step out with an Akris wedding gown for the religious ceremony and perhaps (if at all) changed into the Armani gown for he dinner - just to appease him.
Charlene wants to be the Princess of Fashion and she will snub and use anyone to achieve this shallow goal. Charlene is getting bolder and bolder exposing her true self the closer she gets to her wedding date. On July 1st, when she officially becomes her Serene Highness Princess Charlene of Monaco, Conlene will feel that she definitely needs NO ONE - instead they will need her.

Here's the full article posted here from the New York Post article that Scout posted. A royal fiancee snubs Armani
Last Updated: 9:24 AM, April 30, 2011 Posted: 3:12 AM, April 30, 2011
While the mystery surrounding Kate Middleton's dressmaker was finally solved yesterday, controversy over another royal's outfit had fashionistas buzzing.
Charlene Wittstock, who's set to marry Prince Albert of Monaco this summer, is known as "a Giorgio Armani ambassador" among fashion insiders. So heads were turned sharply in London when Wittstock showed at the royal wedding looking stunning not in Armani, but in head-to-toe Akris -- the label by Swiss designer Albert Kriemler.
Armani has been reported as playing Henry Higgins to Wittstock, a former Olympic backstroker, who has said publicly that she used to be "clueless" about fashion. But she's become quite a clotheshorse, thanks, in part, to Armani, who said he plans on making Wittstock's wedding dress. But Wittstock chose Akris, which has a boutique in Monaco, for yesterday morning's ceremony in Westminster Abbey and also for a royal dinner Thursday night.
She wore "a dove-gray silk dupioni evening dress with laser-cut silk organza appliqué and a silk chiffon stole" on Thursday, according to a press release from Akris.
For yesterday's nuptials, she rocked "a light gray ensemble of a double-face coat and dress, with a hat and crocheted gloves."
"She was not on our press release today," snapped an Armani rep when we asked about Wittstock. The rep added she had "no information" about Wittstock's wedding dress. In January, Armani was reported as saying, "Yes, I will declare, I will make the royal wedding dress" for Wittstock, whom he dressed for Princess Victoria of Sweden's wedding last June.
Armani did provide the threads for Lady Frederick Windsor, HRH Princess Mathilde of Belgium and HRH Princess Tatiana of Greece and Denmark for yesterday's wedding.

Oh I expect alot of firings within the palace and temper tantrums when HSH doesn't get her every whim and wish on command. Armani will not allow his career to go down in flames so I expect some sort of statement. You can see Lagerfeld sucking up. Makes me disrespect him. Charlene is eventually going to run through designers and then end up with the flunky designers who need her to get their names out there. Charlene is not as smart as she thinks and things are going to turn quickly. The press has already started with Paris Match commenting on their being late for the Queen, and Charlene mugging for the cameras.

I don't see Conlene waiting until after wedding since she already has conned the Albert the Village Idiot of Monaco thinking that everyone hates her for no reason at all and it is their problem and not hers. I don't know if it is true, but someone had mentioned on Eringer blog that Charlene fired one of her "ladies-in-waiting"/assistance. I agree with everything that you said, especially the part that Charlene is not as smart as she thinks! I will keep repeating this because it is true - con artist like Charlene normally meet their downfall not because heir sucker gets wise, but because the con artist gets too greedy and someone other than their original sucker will expose them and pout them in their place. Someone besides Albert will expose Charlene for the true con artist that she is. Wouldn't it be just desert - karma - if Charlene's downfall is fashion related due to her shallow goal of being Princess of Fashion. eventually, Conlene will piss off the wrong person who doesn't need to suck up to Albert or her - so this person will put Charlene in her place.

What is really telling is that Armani agreed to work with her when she admits she had no fashion sense. He helped her big time when she needed it, but now, he is a nobody as far as Charlene is concerned. She got what she needed from him and so now it is time to dump him and move on. Albert and everyone else in the palace needs to pay attention to this split with Armani. Charlene is showing that she will dump people when she is finished with them, and Albert and the psychophants need to understand that she will do the same to them when the time comes. Her only loyalty is to herself. I've seen people like her in action.

Her only loyalty is to herself. I've seen people like her in action. So true Scout. Again, here's what Charlene had to say about loyalty and trust in her Tatler interview, which to me is very revealing about who SHE is. But the transition to life in this glittering enclave was challenging, painful and solitary. “The people I mixed with in Monaco didn’t relate to my South African mentality or humour,” she says. Then there was the inevitable language barrier – Charlene could not speak French. (She has, however, made a valiant effort to learn the language and is gaining fluency.) It was also difficult for a sporty, informal South African girl to form genuine friendships in a highly protocoled, frosty community that expected Albert to choose one of his own as his consort. “Of course I’ve been subject to jealousy, but that comes with the territory,” she says. “Although I have met some wonderful people since I’ve been living in Monaco, I regard them all as acquaintances. I only have two people I consider friends here. Above all, my true friends are my family. My mother and my two brothers are the only friends I need and the only people I trust. I’m very grateful to have them.”

Head of Akris Albert Kriemler made this comment in this German article about Charlene: "I am of course very happy," said Albert Kriemler to Glanz & Gloria. She, Charlene Wittstock regularly paid a visit to the Akris store in Monaco and I even got to know her personally.The dress that Charlene wore to the Peace and Sports gala in Monaco on 2 December 2010 was also by Akris. Here's a cream version of the dress in Akris spring 2010 Collection . None of the photos released of Charlene showed the back of her dress, but I wouldn't be surprised that it is exactly as this one - Charlene loves exposing her back as much as possible.

cm7007: Let's think logic: After the marriage (if it really takes place...) it is very likely that Charlene get's rid of Stahl and brings in a person of her trust - her mama? ( wait: her mama was diving and swimming- she is unable to do Stahl's job! ok: Charlene is unable to do the job of a Princess as well ;D)As I stated many times: CW is no trojan horse. Becauce in CW is only place for CW for CW for CW ... like a Matrjoschka. (That's what Stahl did'nt understand and that's why CW is so big and has no hips: she is so full of herself.) The Russians say: The person who disturbs us will be the one that helps us. We want Albert to get rid of CW and Stahl. But Stahl is protecting CW. And Albert thinks he does harm to Monacos if he dumps both. But he has to get rid of both before July!!! CW can't be loyal = once CW get's rid of Stahl (and she will)... she will have no strong protector ;D And this blondie is just too dump and pride to understand HOW uncapable she is and HOW MUCH Stahl helped her. Without Stahls support CW will collaps in MC. And Stahl will be happy to watch this tragedy And with CW ... will collaps Albert and Monaco? BECAUSE CHARLENE WAS MADE THE FLAG SHIP OF MONACO AND HIS WIFE. It's a vicious circle... The only one who can stop this is Albert. NOW!!! Because Charlene is not the saviour of Monaco but its final downfall. Once he understands this - he might really save Monaco and call it off. Still eight weeks time and 10 ways to do it But Charlene will fall anyway. The only question is: who managed to de-couple from her before.

Charlene's exs who dumped her were real men. Albert isn't and he won't do it. The wedding will go on and her "lay" will be worth it.
From the sugars about the whole incident:
I think we can safely surmise from the following that Charlene has been helped along with her fashion sense by the Queen of Fashion ~ her future sister-in-law, Princess Caroline of Hanover ~ whom better to have assisted her these past 5 years.
From this I can also deduce that Princess Caroline will in all likelihood be loaning or gifting Charlene several House of Grimaldi tiaras, jewels, etc. from her collection.
That said, I'm most curious to see if Charlene will wear a tiara at all because now that I think about it none of the Grimaldi women, except Caroline, have worn many tiaras over the years. Not even on their respective wedding days. A shame really, they have so many wonderful pieces. We shall see though, perhaps Charlene will be the first to wear one on her wedding day.
HOW IN THE f*ck DID THEY GO FROM Caroline having used the designer a few times to Caroline giving Trampolina all the family jewels? Caroline has probably used every single designer in the world at this point. From what I've heard she didn't like what Charlene has worn or that Charlene whored herself out. I doubt she "helped" her along.

sugahs gonna be disappointed JMO caroline may love tramolina, she ain't given up her jewels. the sugahs are delusional, i saw that tragic (gotta be a palaceflunkie) melinda, raving about caroline should turn over his tiaras. trouble was the silly girl was talking about the HANOVER tiara. i don't think the grimaldi jewels are going to be what the nutjobs think, grace always wore IMO dinky tiaras and that red egg one is the only one i've seen in official photos. the rest IMO were loans, Caroline did get Charlottes jewels and i'm sure she'll leave them to charlotte JMO

The Sugars dream that Caroline is friends with Charlene, and that has helped her all these yeras to wear the right outfits/dresses...and now they think like she will give her the jewels of her family? Of her grandmother?!! PLEASE!!! the sugars are everyday more delusional. Caroline can't stand Conlene, i doubt she will wear a tiara at her own wedding...did Grace wear a tiara?

Conlene probably told the Village Idiot Albert of Moanco she needed brother Gareth living in Monaco with her because she had no friends. Then, to get jer mother Lynette in Monaco, Conlene told Albert what she told the media - she needed her mother's support to help her until the wedding. The entire Wittstock clan were already "working" the Village Idiot Albert soon after the engagement. Recall in the first post engagement interview Charlene parents stated (among that they were happy their duagher was finally getting hitched), Lynette stated that they were waiting for the green light from Charlene so that they could go to Monaco. I guess Charlene must have only received a yellow light from Sucker Al because only the mother moved there. Now, Michael Wittstock has already started his sob story (probably where Charlene learned it from) of why he can no longer live South Africa - contaminate water and crime. But, as you mentioned Paca - perhaps Conlene, Gareth and Lynette have already decided that their gravy train might be in jeopardy if too many of the Wittstocks moved to Moanco, especially even before the wedding. So, get ready for stories (of course after the wedding since Conlene will need her father to walk down the asile for the photos) about how abusive the father is - that will kill two birds with one stone - allows Lynette to stay permanently an get rid of the father who by their actions and even words that they don't trust or seem to care about.

A divorced dad is a lose element and uncontrollable. He can do a tell all to get back at them. The incident with the car was a set up ploy to get media attention and have an excuse to move away to a more secure area. Saying that there are too many black people for the Whitestocks liking in SA won't work as we know that Albert prefers his women black. Also they can't say how terrible the dad was as the mother apparently saw no reason to get away from him with all kids grown and until the daughter sold herself to the highest bidder. Apart it would tarnish the coming from a happy family image she is trying to display. As a widow mom has the best reasons to stay and live in luxury, plus she can make sure that the dumpster bride will stay married at all costs.

I doubt she "helped" her along.I'm with you on this rant, MrPlowFan! The sugahs continually show their ignorance when it comes to promoting Charlene such that it makes me wonder if they even follow royalty or are just cheerleaders for Charlene. They assume that anything Caroline wears actually belongs to Albert and it is Grimaldi jewels. I'm sure that I can see Ernst allowing Charlene to steal one of the Hanover tiaras, simply because she is so special. Plus, any research would let one know that Caroline's grandmother left her the tiaras, not Grace, and not the Sovereign. I believe that these tiaras were bought by Caroline's grandfather for her grandmother and were never part of any Grimaldi family jewels. I'm sick of the sugahs expecting Caroline to just go hide somewhere and never show her face just so Charlene doesn't have any competition. If Albert really loved Charlene, she wouldn't feel so threatened by other beautiful women, even women who are his sisters are a threat to her. How pathetic!
