Princess Beatrice wins major accolade after royal admitted to 'crying' and getting 'really upset'

The 35-year-old topped Tatler’s best-dressed list, despite going viral for the bizarre fawn-coloured hat she wore at Princess Kate and Prince William's wedding, which inspired numerous memes.

Tatler praised Beatrice as "a beacon of sartorial elegance" by "pairing vintage-inspired cuts with fresh-from-the-catwalk glamour".

However, it was noted that she was the "subject of much jest" for the Philip Treacy hat.

Both Beatrice and her sister Princess Eugenie admitted to having cried over articles criticising their hats at the wedding.

"There was a horrible article that had been written about Beatrice and she got really upset," Princess Eugenie said in a 2018 interview, recalling their infamous fascinators.

"We were just about to step out and she had a bit of a wobble and cried," she told Vogue.

"I was looking after her. And then about an hour later, I had a wobble and started crying and Bea was there for me."

The sisters wore unique fascinators by hat designer Philip Treacy to Prince William and Kate's wedding 13 years ago at Westminster Abbey.

Eugenie's was a blue headpiece with a massive purple flower topped with a white feather, which she wore with a Vivienne Westwood ensemble.

Meanwhile, Beatrice's was beige with an upright oval design and ribbon features that matched her nude Valentino Haute Couture dress.

The siblings landed on worst-dressed lists and The Mail called their looks "outlandish".

But Beatrice seemed to get the brunt of the backlash.

A Facebook page called "Princess Beatrice's ridiculous wedding hat" was created, however, it has since been deleted.

The full top 25 list can be seen in the September issue of Tatler, which will go on sale on Thursday, August 1.
