The strict dress code Kate and Meghan have to follow at Princess Eugenie’s wedding
Step aside Kate and Meghan, it’s Princess Eugenie’s time to shine as her long-awaited wedding on October 12 to Jack Brooksbank fast approaches.
And while it’s not expected to be as popular as the Duchess of Cambridge or Duchess of Sussex’s big day, it is a royal wedding after all, and strict dress code rules apply.
All female guests attending the wedding are required to wear a hat, according to The Express – and no one is exempt, including Kate, Meghan and even the Queen.
Women must also don a day dress for the special occasion, while men are expected to arrive in a three-piece morning suit.
Princess Eugenie and her older sister Princess Beatrice made headlines in 2011 when they showed up to Prince William and Duchess Kate’s wedding wearing unflattering headpieces.
Eugenie broke her silence on the criticism last month when she admitted that the backlash really affected them.
“There was a horrible article that had been written about Beatrice and she got really upset,” the 28-year-old told Vogue.
“We were just about to step out and she had a bit of a wobble and cried. I was looking after her. And then about an hour later, I had a wobble and started crying and Bea was there for me.”
The sisters made sure they didn’t repeat the same mistakes, as they arrived in more subdued attire for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s wedding in May.
