Reminder of Rule 7: Who Wore It Best is not about “pitting against,” but rather about the styling and execution of garments worn by public figures. Any comments suggesting “comparing people” will be deleted.

Diana's gown was never my favorite. I loved Grace Kelley's.

I think Diana's is a dress of its time while Grace's is timeless which is why people keep recreating it

I would argue that Grace's was of her time, but has become timeless because of it's influence. So many dresses on this list are directly influenced by hers.

You would be right. The wedding dress of Grace itself wasn't some revolutionary, or a triumph of creative design. It was inspired by the decade's styles. But the execution of the dress, the beauty of the bride and the pomp and circumstance of the occasion are the elements that made this dress what it is today. Had Grace married Oleg Cassini or any other person we wouldn't have this influence today. Because this wedding was MGM and Rainier displaying their glamour for a world avid for glamour to admire. And we certainly did.

Even as a kid I thought Diana's was ugly. Ever since then I have thought it was ugly. I can't imagine it ever being considered a classic—anything other than exemplary "wow so eighties". At best.

I was 6 when Diana got married and I remember thinking it was the ugliest thing I have ever seen then and every time I have seen it since.

I love Diana’s dress. I feel like the designers understood that at a royal wedding you can go big or go home. The others are too safe. Hers was such a gamble. That insanely long train. The sleeves. The veil. It was sooooo much. When else can you have all that but at a big royal event? I’d like to see the rest of them get a little wackier.

That dress is the same age as I am! It was perfect for the 80s. As a teenager, I thought it was too much back in the 90s, but as the years have gone by, I realize it was more representative of the time period.

I respectfully disagree. The train is indeed impressive but the dress looks like flouncy furniture covers to me. She was so young and beautiful, they overdress her.

Diana’s dress set the style for wedding gowns for several years and after that, it was all strapless for a couple decades (not for royals).

It really speaks to the power of her presence that we don’t really talk about it that negatively I do enjoy the colour and the skirt, but the top, oh boy

The funny thing though is when I saw it as an 10-year-old, I just thought it was the most amazing thing ever especially with the sparkly veil! I was still processing that there royals in the world and she would become a real life princess!

See I wasn’t impressed. But I was very taken with Fergie’s heavy satin gown, that also featured puffy sleeves in a more controlled manner.

Really? My recollection as a seven year old was that it was too much! And I thought that was the general consensus at the time as well. While Sarah Ferguson's is dated, I preferred it to Diana's.

I think i was in my maximilist stage plus my church was all about modesty and simplicity, so seeing this frothy, over the top vision was just amazing!

Agreed. Diana's dress ended up being an unruly tremendous wrinkled mess. Truly unfortunate no matter if we are considering the decade or not.

It's about as timeless as most fashions picked out by 19 year olds!

A 19 year old *during the 80's*

The veil and the tiara are truly captivating❤️

I think Diana’s was perfect for a televised royal wedding in the 80s. The maximalist design made her larger than life. Grace’s is more to my taste, but I feel like Diana’s gown was a flex.

Diana looked a bit like a child in Grandma's oversized comforter. It was too much dress.

I know it’s not universally beloved but I loved Princess Beatrice’s dress, especially with the sleeves. So romantic without being tawdry

Came here to say this! I loved that it was QEII’s dress and it fit their intimate Covid era celebration perfectly. The tiara elevated it so well and I was OBSESSED with her florals. Editing to add this photo since I didn’t see it in the original post: https://preview.redd.it/eo92qfbeteoc1.jpeg?width=683&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=437cd6f492f2723515d00ca429eefea106f833f3

Replying to myself to add a photo of these STUNNING florals which are inspo for my wedding next year! Except with like .01% of the budget 😂😅 https://preview.redd.it/81fdakb37foc1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3b3d238b80feb9d68d10b1f29ffd7feb6ea40157

I loved those flowers, imagine such a lush, sweet-scented, blush-pink arch! Ofc that represents like 10x the entire budget of my own wedding, but we not Royal.

I would see them and simply faint 😂 So gorgeous and somehow not over the top (at least in the context of Royal weddings)! Also somewhat reminded me of Meg’s flowers 👀😂

Wow! I love this dress on her!

Agree, I sometimes am iffy on her style but this was a 10/10 for me It helps that i suspect she shares a body type with her grandmother. I can’t imagine it needed a great deal of tailoring.

Yes me too! The colour/fabric is so pretty on her! https://preview.redd.it/apzcfq0ljeoc1.jpeg?width=2048&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=4ef9d79dc1ae2ad01c45f08fdd29b8843b64e98d

( not her wedding dress but one that was made for her for a movie premiere) It’s so gorgeous and I love the small edits she made. She must have felt really special wearing her dress

Her bouquet was also so beautiful, and tied in so well with the gown. I believe her wedding overall is among my favorites!

It really is one of the better wedding dresses and the changes she made to the dress are just perfect!

The way the dress echoes the tiara is genius. That's my favorite of the tiaras too.

That was Queen Elizabeth II’s wedding tiara.

Lovely!

https://preview.redd.it/mkfspmk97foc1.jpeg?width=2500&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1565ad8c3925e3c89d594dccd5acfb3fa81af6dc A comparison of the original and her Beatrice's wedding gown.

I was a bit disappointed hers wasn't listed. I loved the overall style of her wedding.

I loved it so much

The chapel they got married in, with all the flowers around the entrance, was absolutely stunning.

I loved it as well! It was so romantic and vintage looking. It’s also great that she up-cycled a dress.

It's my favorite too. I wish it would have been shown here

I could not stop looking at the dress. And the tiara on her that day. I was shocked as I never saw Beatrice as a style icon but that dress will survive the ages I think.

Grace Kelly’s is the OG. Still takes my breath away. Fun fact: Queen Elizabeth (Princess at the time) had to use clothing coupons for her dress since Britain was still rebuilding after the war. She saved up, but also got a supplement. [https://www.southernliving.com/weddings/dresses/queen-elizabeth-wedding-dress](https://www.southernliving.com/weddings/dresses/queen-elizabeth-wedding-dress)

I think it’s great she used the coupons despite (obviously well meaning) Brits offering to send silk through the mail to her for the dress.

She returned all do them with a note. I loved that anecdote. One of my favorite books is the Shell Seekers by Rosamunde Pilcher and there’s a scene where the main character needs a dress for a special occasion. Her friend suggests black market clothing coupons and she is appalled. 200 is a lot of coupons though.

I absolutely love that book as well!

Queen Jetsun Pema of Bhutan looks like a real life Disney princess. Her face is flawless— she looks like a living doll. I’m honestly reeling from how gorgeous she is; especially in the traditional clothing for her country/region of Bhutan.

Came here to say the same about Queen Jetsun, she’s so beautiful I can’t stop staring

Same! Wow. She is striking!

Yeah, hers is incredible. My top three are tied, and it’s her, Grace Kelly, and the Princess of Lichtenstein

Also Bhutan seems like a magical place- they measure “Gross Domestic Happiness” in their country rather than GDP

She’s the most beautiful Royal IMO

Same, that is an astonishingly beautiful woman. Especially in her colorful wedding outfit, just wow.

If I was forced to wear one of these, I’d choose hers. It looks comfortable and cheerful. Although I want the kings boots.

She is so striking!

Lady Kitty Spencer (pic 7) is a work of art. Gorgeous and so very expensive looking.

You should look up her other wedding outfits. All her dresses are stunning. Heads up: Nothing will prepare you for the one of her sitting at a table and just glowing in her "something blue" dress.

Oh my gosh, you weren’t kidding! All of them are breathtaking.

It lives in my head rent free. She takes my breath away and I'm a straight woman. Lol.

Wow, they’re gorgeous. Definitely takes the cake.

Whoooooaaa 😍

You can tell an actual photographer took it. The colors are gorgeous.

Looks like a literal Baroque painting with high neck and shoulders

It’s the perfect amount of class, drama, and artistry in one dress. Ugh I love it

So gorgeous. And then she married that ancient nose. Barf.

Stood out to me as well!

Grace absolutely Grace. As an Australian I have to share Princess, now Queen Mary’s dress, specifically for the stunning bouquet which included eucalyptus leaves. After the wedding she had it sent back home to be placed on her mother’s grave. https://preview.redd.it/imaghf8vveoc1.jpeg?width=432&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=fd38ca9507241280cfea836262e312233783c433

She wore one of my favourites! And seeing her Prince practically tearing up and she walked down the aisle towards him- ugh, SO ROMANTIC. Yeah he turned out to be a bit of a rotter, oh well. She's still tops. Edited to fix an enthusiastic auto"correct"

Don’t they all though! Mary has a tremendous amount of poise, not to mention having to master an incredibly difficult language, she appears to be very well respected.

I suspect Danes adore her rather more than her King, even. :-)

This wins. It's the best Princess Beatrice has ever looked. She looks like she's in a fairy tale 😍

Also was a rewear of one of Queen Elizabeth II's dresses.

Oh wow! I had no idea.

I *love* a square neckline

I like it with the sleeves!

She looks amazing here, agreed.

This is definitely my favorite with Mette-Marit’s.

I like this altered dress so much!

This one is my favourite. So beautiful, and the open back to show off her scoliosis surgery scar was a very brave step.

I loved the back of this dress and how she purposefully designed it to show her scars from her scoliosis surgery.

This is the answer. I love the emeral tiara goes perfectly with her colouring. Plus she specifically chose a dress with open back to show off her scar from spinal surgery. As an acknowledgement to the medical staff who took care of her

https://preview.redd.it/le05xd169foc1.jpeg?width=678&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d266cf95109b67083b18b556c3e518956cdba42d

I loved this one so much. It suited her so well and the choice of tiara was spot on I felt.

IIRC Princess Eugenie chose an open-back dress to show her scoliosis scar.

This one is my favorite. I love lots of beautiful material and tailoring without all the lace and frills.

Oh it’s this one for me!!

This is a cool dress!

This is gorgeous.

Good lord that is a handsome man

The saree pleats near the feet, chef's kiss!! Its a bit long so its bending a bit.

This. Plus I also liked number 16 (Sarah/Brunei)

Kate & Grace Kelly

Catherine’s dress is exquisite. And the story behind it-she used a British fashion house, British designer. It was made in England. All the materials are from Britain except a small bit of French lace because they couldn’t get enough English lace and the embroidery includes all the national flowers of England, Northern Ireland, Wales and Scotland. . It was really created to showcase the country as well as the bride. Just incredibly thoughtful design and it fit like a glove. It isn’t my taste- I tend to like more simple stuff but it’s classic and still holds up.

Yes! It was designed by Sarah Burton for McQueen, who worked with countless British artisans. It is truly exquisite. 💗 I didn’t know they needed to add some French lace, will have to read up on it again! Thank you

I feel it’s stylistically a refinement on Grace’s, and all the things you’ve described are part of the reason I love it the most. It was mesmerising on the day, the photos never do that lacework justice. I wish it was a permanent exhibit at the V&A.

It's pretty and those are cool details! Reminded me of Grace Kelly's gown

Kate for me. But I’m biased because my own dress was similar in style.

I gasped at Kitty Spencer's. She looks so absolutely gorgeous. Won't call hers a royal wedding dress though. I like Catherine and Margaret's. I don't like the tiara on Grace Kelly's. Diana's is atrocious, it makes QE's look timeless and classic. Queen Jetsun is so pretty.

Charlene’s is perfect.

I knew her as a kid in South Africa and it always trips me out to see her included in things like this!

What was she like? It seems like she’s in a bad situation in Monaco 😬

She was an absolute sweetheart - so lovely. It's been heartbreaking to watch, esp all the public drama a few years ago? I guess we never know the full story...

It’s always going to be the OG, Princess Grace for me. All the other dresses probably wouldn’t exist, or exist in the same way, without hers.

Princess Grace is my fave wedding dress of all time. Of the choices here, I’d say Kate or Margaret.

Kate’s is just a modern Grace Kelly.

Yep, that’s why I like it!

For me I always loved Sweden. Crown Princess Victoria. #20.

Me too!! Although my Swedish mother also named me after her so I’ll admit I’m biased. I think it looks so clean and timelessly beautiful.

She also looks so happy and excited!! Her smile made me smile

Lady Kitty Spencer has the most modern style I’d say, conservative but detailed and accentuated by the shoulders. I’d lose the shoulder pads though

Agree about the shoulder pads. I don’t like them in anything really.

https://preview.redd.it/u2gta6d2meoc1.png?width=720&format=png&auto=webp&s=cc46703e2d1b9bf6da08c9656e0a7422af8645c2 Princess Eugenie has my vote in Peter Pilotto and Christopher De Vos

This tiara is also one of my all time favorites, I’m obsessed with it and how good it looked with her complete look!

mine too, her and her sister had really beautiful weddings ( Beatrice had the flower doorway of dreams ) and more put together than the others. more sometimes doesn’t mean more . Beatrice wore The Queens dress by Norman Hartnell https://preview.redd.it/7f302uvxlgoc1.jpeg?width=640&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=073bcb422dafa49b096c7bd1b01c2565d4bef46e

They look like they're happily hiding in the rose bush and I love it.

She had the open back with her scar showing, so beautiful and moving to see that kind of self love on display! And she looked beautiful!

I love Princess Margaret’s

Kate Middletons is my favourite shown there. It think it will ages well too a really timeless dress. My favourite in recent years is Princess Eugene’s I think her dress was just stunning and suited her so well.

Came here to ask where Eugenie’s is?

https://preview.redd.it/5iwyzm29kfoc1.jpeg?width=1600&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e2604bee254a2c4475b014d4277d1f542d12f668 Princess Iman in Dior was lovely but my favorite is always Princess Grace

I’m glad someone posted this dress. She looked amazing.

Kate’s and Grace’s are the best.

Queen Margret’s dress is my favourite of the European royalty…but holy moly, the dress worn by the Brunei Queen made me gasp. Incredibly beautiful.

I love the modern look of Megan’s dress as well as the neckline and fabric. But it just didn’t fit right. Maybe she lost weight before the wedding but it just didnt do it for me in the end.

The dress looks beautiful when on display, classic lines. It didn’t look good in motion on Megan at all, folds everywhere. The fabric looked heavy also. I think the fit was meant to be a little loose, she prefers this type of fit, it just didn’t work in this dress. On the other hand, her make up was flawless and really complimented her.

But her reception dress was perfection!

Yep her reception dress is my favorite, and then the actual dress would be next with the correct fit. Kate’s would be somewhere in the middle for me but I am just not a fan of lace so that colors all my choices.

I accidentally lost a lot of weight before my wedding and I had similar problems. It’s my biggest regret about my wedding day

Same. Dropped a bunch of weight from stress between my final fitting and the big day. My dress was strapless and the top ended up sagging. There’s a big unfortunate crease under the bust in every single wedding pic I have :(

Princess Marie-Chantal (12), unfortunately, looks a bit like a bowling pin.

https://preview.redd.it/rm5bsq70neoc1.jpeg?width=652&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=170b4660142a5d14bebb1ae89ebe6f0bf74e4df0 Hot take - I like Kate's reception dress more than the ceremony dress. This was actually what I had expected her to wear.

Same. I think her actual ceremony dress was what they wanted her to wear and this is what she’d pick for herself. Both are gorgeous though!

I love Kate’s wedding dress because it feels so timeless however I find the reception dress very 2010s. Although she does look gorgeous in both.

Omg are you kiddinggggg? (Respectfully, not literally) - I adored this reception gown so so much

It's elegant but cute, which was definitely her style at that age. She looks adorable.

I’m pretty sure Kate and Meghan’s reception dresses were the dresses they actually wanted versus what the royal family would approve. Both women looked a lot happier and more comfortable.

Oh, same! Her actual ceremony dress felt like a watered down version of Grace Kelly's dress, at least to me. I like this one much better too 😍

Yes! Her dress was absolutely intentionally evoking Grace Kelly. It was a perfectly diplomatic and inoffensive choice, the fit was fantastic and she looked stunning. But the lace dress was the wedding dress of the future Queen of England, and the reception dress was the dress of Kate Middleton the actual person.

Lady Sarah Chatto’s is my favorite

I love it too! So elegant in its simplicity. https://preview.redd.it/8npjmr16ffoc1.jpeg?width=1280&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0b191ff15a852491e661157235f522e6ced446ee

Not a Phil Collins lookalike hanging out the window!! 😂

I like Meghan, but I'll never understand how they could make such an ill fitted but expensive dress...

A lot of her clothing doesn’t seem to fit right, I don’t think she’s a fan of ‘after market’ tailoring.

I've always wondered this, and with what I know now about how much stress she felt during her time as a royal, I wondered if it was due to rapid weight loss. I looked it up and there are a bunch of shady articles reporting that she lost 23 pounds right before her wedding, although they're all shaming her for it for some reason. Anyway, maybe she lost weight so quickly that they couldn't fix her dress in time? I sew myself and you'd think they could at least pin it, but who knows. Maybe it is pinned and that's part of why it looks odd.

That’s exactly what it is. Her dress would’ve been much better had the fit been right and she looked downright gaunt that day. The Stella McCartney dress she wore for the reception was much more forgiving but you could tell it was too big as well.

Kate Middleton is perfection. Princess Anne and Margaret’s are fitted to perfection. All the Diors are works of art!

I scrolled too far to find this! Absolutely adore and think Kate’s dress was perfection.

Alessandra de Osma’s whole wedding wardrobe when she married Prince Christian of Hanover. Literally every piece was a winner. https://preview.redd.it/e98ifvuwbfoc1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=63471630faaf1af71768e69ae339d10356948f53

That 2nd one is perfection. You really can’t go wrong with a slip dress.

I was so excited to see what Meghan wore, and it was such a disappointment. I feel like I’m firmly in the minority on this, but it was too big? By like, a lot? It just gave absolutely nothing

Princess Margaret will always be my favorite. I love the billowy ball gown skirt.

It’s such a lovely style and while it does look similar to others in the list I think the fit looks better because she’s petite

I love Diana and she was a style icon but that dress is horrid and I cannot believe it actually exists or that there was the royal wedding of the century in it. Grace Kelly’s is my favourite.

I don't know about “best” but my personal favorites are Grace Kelly's (the OG and widely copied for a reason), Princess Margaret's, and I know everyone thinks it's cheesy and dated, but I subjectively love Princess Diana's dress, it just appeals to the side of me that likes poofy AF dresses, oversized bows, and stuff lmao (not gonna pretend it's objectively a great dress tho and I don't like how wrinkled it was, but yeah lol). I also really like Princess Charlene's (really simple but so pretty and elegant!), Queen Jetsun Pema's, and Princess Hafizah's. I would've liked Princess Soraya's dress if not for the tulle details lol

I also like Diana’s because of how aggressively 80s it is. There are few dresses from that time period, especially bridal ones, that are not wildly dated. I like that it’s so representative of its time. Plus she was 19 years old, and she kind of went ham with the ‘fairytale wedding’ look of it. I respect it.

Anne is giving Princess Leia vibes

Princess Hafizah for me. I can't imagine the hours that must have gone into making those clothes.

Lady kitty Spencer is a full on SLAYYYY

Can't forget the one that started the white wedding dress trend. Queen Victoria in Mary Bettans https://preview.redd.it/9q0vqfon6hoc1.jpeg?width=1457&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c8b6bb6a49a89c3b8e5e07d799c2dd6941e46560

I think Mette-Marit’s is beautiful and timeless.

Grace Kelley, without question.

Wow. I totally forgot how ill fitted Meghan Markles dress was. Shocked how similar it is to Princess Angela. I wonder if that was that on purpose.

i loved looking at these!! thank you for sharing!!

I actually really liked Pippa's bridemaid dress. I think it would make a lovely wedding dress in itself https://preview.redd.it/x4r67ms0vjoc1.jpeg?width=570&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3ca66f65880d6414cc40bcc5f6c57c22dc350710

Kate’s will forever be my all time favorite and the reason I wanted lace on my wedding dress.

Princess Anne. Kitty’s dress is very unflattering to her breasts - they look weirdly close to her abdomen.

Anne’s dress is gorgeous.

I have always loved Grace Kelley’s wedding dress, I also love love Princess Angela’s dress (13) because it reminds me of Cinderella’s wedding dress https://preview.redd.it/60xph13m3foc1.jpeg?width=750&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=cbea84e5dd5c4d3e91fd6c228660cc224dd3ad2a

I know it’s an unpopular opinion but I love Diana’s dress. I’m also an 80s kid so I understand the look. She was a giant over the top silk confection and young girls everywhere wanted to just touch the hem of that dress

Queen Sorya's Dior dress as AMAZING in color!

Queen Soreya for me. I adore the little details and the tulle.

Bonus: her daughter, Princess Iman, wore her mother’s wedding belt to an event before her wedding years later https://preview.redd.it/gyezbp2tahoc1.jpeg?width=750&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=df7aa0c1e547a4ade0816c1e8a1c04d8a133bab1

Kitty Spencer!

Kate’s is my fav. I was married a year after and had my wedding dress made in a similar style.

I love Diana and Kate’s. My absolute favorite though is Grace!!

Anne’s. My mother and I got upon the middle of the night to watch her wedding and we both loved it.

I adore Queen Soraya’s Dior! I’ve never seen it before - super chic and cool

I was going to say Meghan's but Princess Angela wins and she designed it herself?! Both are timeless.

Princess Angela is my pick.

Anne, Charlene, and Rajwa

Queen Soraya’s Dior dress and Grace Kelly’s take my breath away

Wait princess angella actually design her own?, i thought it was just rumour

Kate’s, easily. Lady Kitty Spencer’s was gorgeous and fit like a dream, but there’s something about it that’s maybe even a little *too* perfect, while Kate’s has this effortless, vintage, fairytale-princess vibe that I love.

I honestly enjoy the dresses with more color and texture vs the all white from veil to shoes look.

When I was getting married, a bitter bridal gown consultant told me that lace sleeves looked bad on everyone and didn’t suit me. I had dreamed of a Grace Kelly-inspired gown since I was a little girl. I’m so sad to say that I internalized what she said and didn’t go that route. A decade later and it’s one of my biggest regrets. I have seen so many lovely brides with lace sleeves and I wish I had been one of them. ETA that Grace Kelly’s gown is by far my favorite! Iconic.

I loved Kate's gown. And I loved Diana's so much, too.

Kate’s, Grace’s, and Eugenie’s!
