Princess Anne: the Frugalista Royal

July 23, 2008 By: missthrifty Category: Fashion No Comments →

I’m very impressed by Princess Anne, who dusted off the dress she wore to the Prince of Wales’ wedding in 1981 and donned it again for another royal wedding at the weekend.

I’m also impressed that the white and yellow dress still fits her, 27 years later.

Here’s a snippet from the BBC website:

When asked about her frugality, Princess Anne has said: “A good suit goes on for ever. If it is properly made and has a classic look you can go on wearing it ad infinitum.

“The economy is bred into me. My parents believe that things are not to be wasted.”

Snaps.
