Wearing this season's must-have material, lace, George flaunted his chubby cheeks in a beautiful full-length vintage gown that was just the right colour to hide baby dribble. (credit:PA)

"Could she BE more perfect?!" screamed the world's media, rhetorically. The cream mother (geddit?!) wore McQueen (geddit?!). We're holding back tears of pride just looking at her. (credit:PA)
Loser: The Duke of Cambridge / Winner: The Archbishop of Canterbury(03 of12)

While Justin made an effort with a gold-edged cassock that co-ordinated with Kate and George, William looked dull by comparison, wearing some sort of suit. (credit:PA)

Once again, Carole Middleton got it right, wearing a glamorous-yet-not-scene-stealing outfit that screamed "I belong here, please don't throw me out".

Lock up your mothers - there's a silver fox on the prowl! Yes, the George Clooney of the modern royal family didn't disappoint with an understated ensemble also known as 'a suit and tie'. (credit:PA)
Loser: Mike Tindall / Winner: Zara Tindall (06 of12)

Hey, the '80s called, Mike - they want their clothes back! Yes, the rugby star disappointed with a 'contrasting collar' shirt and Don Johnson suit. The permanently surprised Zara, meanwhile, made up for it in a chic maternity outfit that was just the right side of 'is she at a funeral?'. (credit:AP)
Winners: The Queen and the Duchess of Cornwall(07 of12)

Both ladies looked great in this fashion face-off - although Liz just pips Camilla to the winning spot, we feel, with a turquoise coat, matching hat and co-ordinated accessories that oozed "I'm the boss!". (credit:PA)
Loser: Prince Charles (08 of12)

Charles covered his curves in a blue suit which was disappointingly creasy. (credit:PA)

James rocked this season's must-have accessory - a beard - while Pippa opted to go without. Instead, she chose a typically 'pretty-in-fact-bordering-on-show-stealing' outfit that looked equally good from the front... (credit:PA)
