    Camilla, Duchess Of Cornwall Visited Dior Headquarters And It Was Awkward

    To be fair, making a "let them eat cake" joke about French models is tough to recover from. (That didn't actually happen, but, you know, it could have.)

    Camilla wore a simple housedress for her tour, perhaps assuming she'd pick up some couture freebies along the way.

    Here's a Dior designer creating some oversize couture nipple pasties. They're not for Camilla.

    Oh look, here's Camilla laughing at the nipple pasties. "Ha ha ha, fashion."

    This lovely pale lime creation isn't for her either.

    Nor this lovely pleated something or other.

    And nope, not this artfully tailored couture bodice-in-progress. None for you, Duchess Camilla.

    "Wait a crown-wearing second. What do you mean one doesn't get any new clothes?"

    "Listen Ralph, you seem like a nice enough Frenchie but this just won't do."

    It's Raf. And I'm Belgian."

    "Whatever Raffles: French, Belgian, Icelandic... it all blurs together when one plans to rule Europe entirely. Now, about my couture."

    "..."

    Dior CEO Sidney Toledano steps in. "Wait, Stanley, this is the best you have to offer?"

    "I wouldn't even wish this upon my least favorite maids."

    Post-Dior, Camilla goes for a stroll with French Ambassador Sir Peter Ricketts.

    Unrelated, but here's a lovely picture of Camilla enjoying some salami in a Parsian market.
