Prince Haakon of Norway

Yepp I think so, I see so many fails (don't they have custom tailors who makes their suits and help them with outfits?) I mean people here on SF dress way better.

But of course we have good ones aswell

I don't mean to defend the way royals dress in general, but this thread's batting average is way above WAYW's.

What strikes me (and HRH The Prince of Wales is at an intermediate or transitional stage) is how Royals have stopped dressing conspicuously and now dress very conventionally. Best example being Prince W's wedding night dinner jacket with black brogues. Exactly what their contemporaries from school or Sandhurst would wear, whether or not SF would approve.
