Queen Letizia's dress is a masterpiece of Spanish haute couture, every detail of the dress is a tribute to Spain's culture and history. The problem is that it was too much for the bride. Letizia is too petite and too thin for so much dress, which swallowed her alive. Also, the pointy neckline made her already pointy facial features even pointier. Maybe some modifications, like a softer, more open neckline (Spanish royal brides are allowed to show their shoulders) and shorter sleeves would have worked better.

[@nicoleroth3127]

Let's be honest, none of the dresses in this video is anywhere near the worst, not even remotely. Some people just didn't like the one or other dress and commented about it. Fair enough, since tastes differ, that is to be expected. I didn't like some of them all that much either, but still wouldn't say they were the worst. They were just not to my taste. In short, there will never be the one universally perfect dress, that everyone on this planet will love and not criticise even a little bit. As long as the bride loves it, it's the perfect dress for her. Yes, people are allowed their opinions, and may voice them, but in the end, with the wedding over, they are irrelevant, as is this video. It's nothing but clickbait, especially since most of the gowns aren't even royal wedding dresses. Nobility and ex-nobility/ex-royals aren't royal, not even if they are related to actual royalty. As for some of these dresses being outragously expensive, if they've got the money, why not? They are allowed to spend it however they wish, be it on a wedding dress, a car, or a wine cellar.

[@cheriem432]

Just a triggering headline to get viewers to click on . . . sigh.

[@myriamickx7969]

Did you notice that, in this video, every single dress, except MM’s, was illustrated with the same 4 excerpts from Twitter critics, pertaining to... Meghan’s dress and wedding ceremony. This was very poor work indeed, coupled with the fact that every dress was criticized for being either too simple or too embellished. There was also no consideration for the brides’s origin. Of course, every bride marrying into a European royal family had to be a show-off of all that country could produce, in terms of lace, jewelry, etc. And of course, Raina marrying the heir to the king of Jordan had to have a lot of golden embroidery and stuff, because that's what Middle Eastern people consider as beautiful and royal.

I've always felt Diana's dress was influenced by the Gunne Sax dresses of the late 70'-early 80s. It's what her bridesmaids were wearing. The look hasn't aged well at all. Diana's dress was simply too busy.

[@babs5968]

My mum & I went to Chester to view Diana’s dress which was on a tour of the UK. We both were so disappointed in it. It was every bit as crushed as when she got out of the carriage at St Paul’s. This happened because the Emmanuel’s didn’t have the experience to produce a dress that could be worn whilst travelling in a horse drawn carriage and still look perfect when getting out.

[@cheriem432]

I *loved* my gown. I was to be married in late April in Boston. This time of year has historically seen temperatures from the low 40s to the high 70s. I thought I wanted an off-the-shoulder lace gown, in case the day was hot, because of this. I went shopping alone, because I never saw the point of dragging other people, whose opinions I would never listen to in the first place, with me to critique my choices. I found and purchased a gorgeous Bianchi designer A-line gown made of Schiffli lace with full, fitted sleeves and a high collar. Definitely *not* what I was looking for, but definitely what I wanted. My mother, the narcissist for whom I never did anything right, cried when she saw it. So, this is my very long agreement with your statement!

I'd agree. I know it was the 80s, but it was just too much. Puffed sleeves, bows, embroidery, what wasn't on it? It was also in the absolutely wrong fabric. I know Diana was involved, but she was very young. Her dressmaker should have told her that between traveling in a car and carriage, the fabric would have looked like crinkled tissue paper. In all, it was just too much skirt, veil, and emblishment.

I disagree when people say lack of embellishment makes a dress bad. The wrong Embellishments make dresses difficult to alter & can date a dress prematurely. A simple design makes it easy to jazz up with accessories or other items. As much as I love Princess Diana, you know that style of dress would not fly today. However, Meghan Markle, Princess Margaret & other simpler dresses are seen more often.

[@MSjackiesaunders]

@ShinbiBelldandy That is the main thing wrong with Princess Diana's dress. All those flounces, ribbons, bows, and other 80s- style frufraw took the attention away from that beautiful face. And the fabric! Besides there being entirely too much of it, it also wrinkled badly.

Let's be honest. The criticism comes mainly from Americans who believe that their wedding tradition of showing a lot of bare skin as a bride and being the center of attention is universal. They simply cannot imagine that royals are not something like Hollywood stars, but representatives of the individual culture of their country. Example: Marie Chantall married in a Greek Orthodox ceremony, in the presence of the Queen. In such a setting you don't show yourself half naked. With her dress, Kelly of Saxe-Coburg takes up the traditional German Tracht of the Coburg region, in which the hip long bodice is worn on top, like every Bavarian Dirndl. And by the way: a clearer pronunciation instead of your hectic nasal sing-song would be better. You Americans are not the only ones on this planet.

[@MSjackiesaunders]

@Frohds14 Hey, don't blame all Americans for having bad taste! I hate the half-naked look, myself. Hollywood starlets like it because it gives them free press, but people like Meryl Streep and Anne Hathaway are much more tasteful in their styles. Yes, I will agree that there have been some American brides who chose appalling wedding dresses, but they are the exceptions, not the rule. And a lot of those fashion choices are directly off of French runways. Cathedral or even church marriages are becoming increasingly rare in most Western countries. Royals, however, are a different story! They are expected to marry in a church and usually are "encouraged" to wear more conservative styles.

No insult to you intended, but the drawback to that advice is that the bride-to-be's mindset can be cluttered with a lot of excitement and fantasy and excess that, in the years to follow, could make her look upon her wedding photos and wonder: "What was I THINKING?!? Why didn't anybody stop me from doing that?" Some dresses just don't go with some people. Chances are near zero that a dress will look the same on you as it does on a model in a photograph. Other folks can see you as you are unable to see yourself. Other folks may have made the same mistakes you seem intent on making, and want to save you from yourself. You don't HAVE to do what anybody else says to, but being able to listen to opinions from others, no matter how unwelcome or unwanted, could turn out to be constructive and beneficial.

1. Like so many other things, opinions are a dime a dozen. My opinion of the most hideous wedding gown for royalty? Princess Dianas'. That one was a hot mess. 2. As long as the bride likes it, everyone else needs to keep quiet.

[@hillarydesmond-mcnaughton8839]

Princess Madeleine of Sweden was my favorite, tied with Queen Mary's. Love the lace neckline and overall silhouette of Madeleine's dress. I loved Queen Mary's dress. It was her veil I found extremely distracting. I think the overall line and shape of the veil by her face seemed abrupt or unfinished in a way. Zara's was my second favorite. I loved the A-line and dropped waist, as well as the fabric serving as "straps".

[@CALLMESIR...]

Where is he getting these prices? A couture Valentino wedding dress will START about about 500k

[@littlechris5656]

Ha ha ha. the first dress was criticised because it was 'cheap and boring' the second one criticised because it was too elaborate and expensive!!!! you can't win!

[@ShannonR1969]

I don't know which "experts" are picking these, but Queen Mary's dress was beautiful, and I also liked Lady Serena's dress. And Princess Madeleine's dress was gorgeous, apart from the dust ruffle on the skirt. Meghan Markle's dress should have been #1, no question. Boring, inappropriate, and ill-fitting.

[@claudiacoy5518]

Princess Mabel's dress is, by far, the ugliest dress in this collection. The "fern dress" is a close second.

[@agnesdix-dehert9454]

So let me get this straight... not just that the "criticisms" shown were identical, and - I suspect - all, every single one, being about Harry & Meghan's wedding... a) simple is too plain. b) embellished is too fussy/ostentatious. c) comfortable fit is too loose. d) fitted makes it look like the bride can't breathe. e) classic is boring. f) modern is not traditional enough. By the way, Lady Serena Armstrong-Jones' gown was made from different materials, only the ballgown skirt was silk organza. And a lace overlay over a solid bodice is more beautiful than so many brides I've seen flaunt in "Say Yes to the Dress", where way too much skin is clearly visible between bust and knees - and at least none of these royal brides wore strapless gowns. The price of the gown is irrelevant, since the cost is usually borne by the bride's family (the exception being Meghan). The only two bridal gowns that I'd agree with being 'bad' were the Princess Napoléon (I found the cut-out lace motifs too large, individually, otherwise it was fine. But the biggest no-no was Meghan's, and that was not due to the dressmaker or the designer - the bridezilla changed her mind so often that the end result, even if it turned out how she intended was never going to fit properly (besides, speculation is that she'd copied what she'd seen Princess Angela of Liechtenstein wear - and the newly-minted Princess of Liechtenstein wore it better). And the sloppy hairdo, with those 'signature strands' flying about her face were also by Meghan's diktat... she tried to "explain" them after the backlash really hit, by claiming she felt the hairdo made her "more relatable"... I also assume that she'd shown Her Late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II the proverbial finger by ignoring the diplomatic advice: "no white gown or veil for a divorcée" - it was already a huge concession that she was marrying in a full church ceremony, and none of it was paid by her (the alleged multi-millionaire) or her family (which she'd already disowned by then, as being beneath her).

[@tooma4886]

I completely agree with everything you said about Meghan and her awful wedding dress. I cannot imagine going against Queen Elizabeth's requests for no white gown or veil. Just could NOT imagine doing that! But this was only one of the times she gave Her Majesty and the Royal Family the middle finger (she's an immature contrarian)! So she wore her hair in a "relatable" style? Well, how was anything about that wedding that cost millions relatable??? Nothing about her lifestyle choices are "relatable!" She buys ridiculously expensive UN-RELATABLE designer clothes, but 9 times out of 10 manages to look like crap. She's so full of it!

[@agnesdix-dehert9454]

@@tooma4886 Once the backlash about the wedding really kicked in (and she who "never reads social media" 'got' the criticism about the ill-fitting dress and the hairdo mess - she applied a bit of damage limitation: of course there was the question as to why the hairdresser had let her go out with those straggly stringy bits hanging down, and hey presto! there was the explanation... she'd wanted to have that hairdo because "it made her more relatable"...

Meghan Markle‘s wedding dress is pretty much an exact copy of the wedding dress of Princess Angela of Lichtenstein, who happens to be the only black princess in Europe. It’s not by accident. I agree with you, but the dress did not fit her properly although I do love a bateau neckline.

[@Kate-lk6tw]

The costs of all the wedding gowns was ridiculous..

[@MSjackiesaunders]

I liked Meghan's dress. It was elegant without being overpowering. The focus was on the veil, which was stunning. As for it not fitting, considering all the garbage she was put through during the preparations, it isn't surprising that she would lose weight.

[@cheriem432]

@5:37 - There are "no degrees of "unique". Something is either unique (one of a kind) or it is not. There is no "more unique" or "less unique". The word you were looking for is "unusual". And, please work on your French name pronunciations. The mispronunciations of "Chevallier" and "Ducruet" are like fingernails on a blackboard.

[@CALLMESIR...]

I really liked Meghans dress. So simple and elegant. The problem wasnt the dress. The problem was meghan. She was completely unstyled. Lousy hairdressing, yesterday's makeup and chapstick. No jewelry. And no real bouquet. A gown like that needs to be dressed up.

[@zulaynavapinerua1997]

The dress might be elegant but on her was big...too big.

[@CALLMESIR...]

@zulaynavapinerua1997 People have said that, and I don't think so. Perhaps maybe in the waist area but I still think it was lovely. If you know the house of Givenchy, they're known for simplicity and elegance. She was under alot of stress too. She could have lost a couple pounds. Givenchy wouldn't let a dress leave their work rooms unless it was flawless. Especially a couture very important gown

[@katarinasvensson9801]

​@@CALLMESIR... she was a divorcee so long White traditionell wedding dress with veil and train was ridiculous. And its costum in britain to use a british designer from a british fashion house.

[@CALLMESIR...]

@katarinasvensson9801 She's not a brit so she didn't have to follow that tradition of British designers and her being a divorce. Maybe she didn't have a big wedding with her ex. The wedding was mainly for Harry anyway being the kings son. It was a show. What we the public always want to see. A royal wedding. Stop the Meghan bashing already. It's really old. I don't care much for her either but her life does not impact mine whatsoever. I could care less. That's Harry,s problem. Not mine. But I will say that Harry will eventually REGRET what he did blowing his family off. I'm a family man and you NEVER take sides against the family. That was stupid, unnecessary, and just plain wrong. He's a culkold so he's possessed.

[@angeladavies993]

It's a good job we all have different tastes. The bride should wear what she likes stuff everyone else. No dress is worth the amount of money some of these cost it's obscene.

[@tonidozier4573]

If a wedding dress was deemed expensive, people gripe. If it’s deemed low budget, people gripe. These brides don’t plan to have ugly wedding gowns made for their special day. Lots of thought and meticulous design are involved. Some people would gripe if they were hung with a new rope. Those people need to stop tearing others down to feel puffed up about themselves. The world doesn’t need Debbie Downers and my apologies to Debbies who are positive people.

[@MG-es2no]

DUCHESS MEGHAN'S dress had embelishments sewn in to the fabric of it. Don't remember what it was but it had it's "embelisments" sewn in. Diana was married in 1987. It was quite stylish for the time. And anything would be a wrinkled hot mess if it was literally stuffed into a carriage. Somehow somehow that was not thought of somewhere along the line. Not that it really matters now. But I'm really happy she never made it to be queen. SHE WOULD HAVE BEEN MISERABLE. She was in an unhappy marriage as a Princess.

[@nancyhammons3594]

In MY opinion, the people that were criticizing these dresses are jealous. The brides were beautiful.

Dresses number two and three on the list were just plain and ugly. Cannot understand why anyone criticized the rest. They were all beautiful, especially Zara’s and Madeline’s. Whomever made this list , doesn’t know what they’re talking about. They only got two right.
