Nice trouser suits, ladies.

Casdon is right in that Victoria Starmer's brown trouser suit was the one she stepped off the plane wearing. She did a quick change into the white (cream?) dress for the posed greetings photos with the Macrons. I think Giorgia Meloni wore the same outfit? And today she wore a different trouser suit in buttery yellow for the traditional G7 group photo where the other wives were obviously not present.
PS I'm lifting these photos from French rags, so hope they show up.

I am not sure but Lady Starmer's dress up dress is even worse than the one she was wearing when she got off the plane.

Once again the dress is too large for her, while you could make a bell tent for a whole pack of boy scouts out of the skirt. It looks a bit 'ethnic' and is more for wafting through woodlands thinking beautiful thoughts than accompanying the Prime MInister on an important visit.

LadyStarmer is tall and willowy, like the Princess of Wales. She should study how she dresses.

Surely she should just be herself M0nica. She isn’t a politician, or a coat hanger wife, she is an independent woman. I’m not keen on her dress either, but I’m glad she doesn’t model herself on somebody else.

As an aside, why does Macron always manage to look cool, when we’ve never had a PM who possesses that skill?

I preferred the brown linen traveling outfit to the dress but that's just me. What I will say is from the video the Starmers were greeted with what appeared to be genuine warmth and enthusiasm by the Macrons, which can only be good for our relationship with France and by association the rest of the EU. Another reason to stick with Starmer?

That's why the French often call MM "le charmeur" or "séducteur" Rosie51. !!

So we have to stick with Starmer ‘cos he gets on with Le Macrons? 😂
Good job this is a light amusing thread.

I said nothing about _modellimg her self on others, heaven forfend, but she could consider how others her build dress and look and see if there is anything she could incorporate into her style.

One of the features of people who always dress well and for the occasion, is that they are always looking and learning from other people. In fact isn't that what anyone who likes to look presentable does?

Haha 😁
I definitely felt 'our two' got the most enthusiastic welcomes. He is very good looking!

Merci for the update MartavTaurus I think that VS is wearing a very charming dressing gown and the butter yellow trouser suit worn by GM is another Showaddywaddy outfit.
Zut alors!

I'm just relieved to see the Starmers looking relaxed and happy. They were very stiff and miserable at Trooping the Colour.

Well I do think a good relationship with France and the rest of the EU is important for the success of the UK. We may be an island but can't survive totally apart from and indifferent to the rest of the world. Yes the 'another reason' was meant light heartedly.

How very shallow 🤭 ….but I fancied him myself about ten years ago.

France could def do worse than Macron👍🏻

I don’t think you could say she doesn’t look presentable M0nica? Her dress is modest and unremarkable. In fairness to her, she usually dresses well I would say, and has a style which is quite ethnic, absolutely nothing like that of the Princess of Wales.

3 pairs of floppy trousers in my case for wearing in Puglia from Thursday onwards- lovely and cool and cover my cornbeef legs.

Very jealous... Puglia is one of my favourite places to go.
😍

If I had lovely straight legs like BM I would wear what she is wearing. Very smart. I don’t like the other two outfits, makes them look dumpy

I prefer the brown outfit to the dress on Lady Starmer but not keen on either.
IMO Mrs Carney looked the best, smart, cool, comfortable.

I agree the cream suit looks a bit too baggy but as an aside would benefit if the sleeves were pushed up slightly.

I like the trouser suits, but I’m not a fan of the very wide trouser look, I think they’d look better slightly tailored, but I like the colours. Not keen on MM outfit but think it suits her.

At least Lady Starmer shops where ordinary people shop. tuclothing.sainsburys.co.uk/product/tuc147502486 They have the matching jacket, too.

That outfit came from tu at Sainsbury’s?

BM always wears nice above the ankle, slightly tapered legged trousers. Not many people can carry that look

Top lady: it was my fave anyway, but that 👍
Love the colour, she looks both comfortable and smart, like..oh, she doesnt need to make an effort and plaster on haute couture, she is just a beautiful woman naturally.

I can't say I like any of the looks. I'm not familiar with their names, but Mrs. Starmer looks too casual, second lady in baggy suit looks overwhelmed, and Mrs. Macron, while always correct, looks a bit stiff.

I do like what Mrs. Carney wore; it looks like a off white linen shift with linen jacket with trim.
