Let's go there since Charlene wants it. In this thread we'll talk about who really is the Princess of Fashion. Why the title? Charlene's own fan page declared it long before Charlene admitted that it's what she wants. You be the judge. In her Vogue interview Charlene claims to want to be the Princess of Fashion. She's failing miserably.www.vogue.com/magazine/article/fit-for-a-princess-charlene-wittstock/I think it's apparent who the real Princess of Fashion is and it's not Charlene. I know we all have opinions, but also assemble the facts for the sugars who have their blinders on and the new readers who don't know any better. “I want to make Monaco one of the fashion capitals of the world. It would be wonderful to team up with some of my international fashion friends, like Stella McCartney and Ralph Lauren, and get the place buzzing with energy again,” she says. “Grace Kelly forged a link between Monaco and the movie world, and I would like to create a strong bond between Monaco and the fashion community.” AdminNote: Changed title of thread to be more inclusive of various topics for opinions

I want to point out that after "we" picked up the Facebook post on various boards that it has changed to "Charlene Fashion, hair" or "Look Book" etc. Still, Charlene is obviously making a play for the style stakes but is not making the impression that Kate Middleton is making. If Kate wears it, it sells out instantly.
Charlene allowed Vogue to photograph her while she was dressing, in curlers and still in bathrobe simply to get into Vogue. She's done Vogue more times than any other magazine. Kate has not done any interviews to promote her fashion sense (or anything else). It wasn't necessary
Cost wise, Charlene spends an average of 10k or more per outfit. You can see that in the who made it thread. Kate is (comparably) more frugal spending less than 300.00 on average, using local designers and off the rack clothes. There have been no "spending sprees" like the one Charlene reportedly took in Ireland where she spent, like Mary the bogan, more than most people make in a few minutes.

Hehe, there's a blog about Kate, "What Kate wore" that follows every step she makes in fashion department. Chartard only has a similar thing in her fb fan page. whatkatewore.com/Of course, after posting this, i can expect in a few days, not to mention hours, that flying monkies flunkies, kool aid drinkers/sugary crack addicts will try to make a page for her trashy plastic doll too.

There are dozens of tumblr sites dedicated to Kate and many blogs, but found no site for Charlene. Wonder why?

Some people's taste is all in their mouth. Charlene's lips are now so big she can't even have that. MrsZinch, I agree. The day Charlene has true style or taste will be the day I look for the horseman of the apocalypse.

Stylish: The wearer wears the clothes. Fashionista: The designer's personality takes over the wearer. So, I'll make Charlene's day - She's a fashionista and Kate has style. JMO

The evdiance is clear-kate can wear anything and people will buy it whereas whatever charlene wears no one will buy it because she dosent dress for her body type and that is why her dress and grooming looks awlful,unkept,and she can even get her shoes to match her outfits. What will slove this is for her to hire a personal. And stylist can she can't dress herself So I think kate is a fashion icon and charlene is a wannabe

If Charlene had ever been a fashion model - but this is a woman who, by her own admission said she knew nothing about fashion or style until a couple of years ago - after she learned the hard way by showing up at a few functions looking like- as she said at one 'looking like a Christmas tree". She didn't have a clue about how to wear makeup or do her hair. Now she suddenly feels she knows enough to "BE A FASHION ICON" , "A STYLE SETTER". Please this woman's ego is unbelievable!
She didn't even have the smarts to stay under the radar and have her plastic surgery done quietly - in private - so there wouldn't be soooo many before and after photos of her around. If she had done it right she could have made her entrance after the fact and it would have been harder to PROVE she did anything. (Although she looks sooo strange now, it's obvious she's done something drastic.) Plus with her strange body - the designers aren't going to run after her to be a model - she has to be forced down their throats. And NOW after all this bad publicity it's going to be even harder to get a designer to back her. She's an idiot and now the entire world will know it! Toast! Burnt toast!!

Bottom line: Kate has not subrogated her personality in an attempt to become Diana or anyone else but herself! On the other hand, Trampolina has completely transformed her physical appearance in a very shallow attempt to become Princess Grace. Sad, sad state of affairs

are there any upcoming engagements where kate and charlene will meet? I think the firm will try very hard to avoid them. They sent Sophie and Edward to the wedding, and it was Sophie and Edward who were sent to the Princess Grace exhibition last year. I think that tells us where the firm ranks them. If they do show up at a dinner or party together, you can bet Charlene will try hard to get her photo op. I bet there will be people there running interference. JMO

Last time Trashy and the Duchess were in the same place was at the Duchess' wedding. If Charlene didn't do anything to have a pic near her, she missed her chance. As paca said, i don't think Trashy will be Princess of Monaco very longer to have an opportunity to meet officially Kate again.

I changed title this thread to be more inclusive of various topics for opinions about Kate versus Charlene since there has been a lot of discussions about the two in various threads. So, please do not feel that you have to limit the discussion to just fashion.

OMG!!!! Is it possible, that Point de Vue - who has written books about Charlene and placed her on their cover more than any other magazine - is about to turn on her? Although this week's cover of Point de Vie indicates a comparison of all the princesses, their summary seems to be focusing on a comparison between Kate and Charlene. More specifically, Point e Vue praises Kate's prestigious college education as a big plus in helping her transition in her job successfully. Is this a leeway in noting that Charlene is a high school dropout who has only focused on her looks (which have been drastically surgically altered) and expensive clothing in defining and transitioning into her role? Point de Vue Cover: Week of July 26 to August 2, 2011
And if it was just a "wedding-blues"? Melancholy tinged tiredness that may surprise is how n'im Bride full honeymoon. After focusing for months on the preparation of a fantasized event and saturated with emotion, she abruptly returns to the daily life of a typical couple. Except that when your name is Charlene now of Monaco and Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge, the head-to-face turns into a procession of official duties in which there is no question of escaping. To Charlene, the baptism of fire was more than tough: Atomic. It took even before the ceremony is over, face the rumors head up, and pronounce a loud voice, the "yes" that everyone was waiting. Know how to be beautiful, natural and happy when the flashes of photographers crackle thousands, when the cameras in mondovision retransmit any of your words, exercise is not easy. Their princes, them have been educated from the cradle. Kate Middleton got away with flying colors, almost less intimidated by his princely wedding in Westminster Abbey as her graduation from the University of St. Andrews. It appears to address his first official trip - 10 days in Canada and two days in Los Angeles - with ease, both loving and available to the public. It must be said that the English girl was in a good school and not just because her parents had offered him the best possible training at a college renamed.

Oh, losing against Kate is so bitter for Charlene. I´m not a fan of Kate, she is too stepford wife for me, but she is thousand times more suitable for the role of a Princess. And Point de Vue knows that. It would be odd to wright the opposite.
