"Having chosen a glamorous green Marchesa gown studded with crystals, she was no doubt hoping to attract some admiring glances. Unfortunately for Princess Beatrice, it wasn't the frock that turned heads. Arriving for a party, she stepped out of her car and her bodice slipped down – revealing rather more decolletage than royal protocol might allow. The 19-year-old princess's accidental slip happened after the Fashion Rocks extravaganza at the Royal Albert Hall on Thursday night. Having left the fashion and rock show, held in aid of the Prince's Trust, she repaired to the after-party at the nearby Baglioni Hotel. Beatrice, who had shared a box with Dame Shirley Bassey and designers for Marchesa earlier in the evening, was ushered into the venue by her hosts and a bodyguard who tried to ensure that nobody stood on her trailing pale green gown....Alluding to her earlier difficulties, Beatrice remarked: "I love it but I keep on having to lift it off the floor and pull the bodice up." When the party stared to fill out, Beatrice was whisked into a cordonedoff area where billionaire Topshop boss Philip Green was holding court. Despite most of her party leaving shortly after midnight, Beatrice stayed beyond 1am to mingle with young guests such as Oscar Humphries, whose father Barry performed at Fashion Rocks...."
""She pulled the train up and wrapped it around her to make the dress a mini – just as Kate did with a Dior dress she wore at a recent bash," says my mole. Luckily, Beatrice's dress escaped intact – unlike Kate's, which ripped. Sounds like Bea, who I recently revealed is setting up her own clothing label, is quite the sartorial expert. "
Beatrice is always caught looking like a bug-eyed deer caught in the headlights or with a 'wonk' eye. I think she doesn't just need fashion lessons but how to smile & pose for the cameras and not be caught in such unflattering poses.
