Charlene Wittstock Style: From Swimmer To Royal Stunner (PHOTOS, POLL)

Prince Albert of Monaco's bride-to-be Charlene Wittstock may soon be our favorite royal, fashion-wise. The former Olympic swimmer clearly has the figure to test out the trends, and--in our opinion--she always looks impeccable when stepping out to a function. Take a look at her style throughout the years and tell us which ensembles are fab and which might be flops.

Women never cease to amaze me. They love being the most attractive in a couple and will marry an fugly man if his wallet and prestige overcompensate for it.

So what happened to the two African Baby Mamas Prince Albert has. He couldn't marry neither one of them? SMH

She is lovely, her fashion sense is usually perfect the young lady but doesn't look entirely comfortable. What a heavy mantle, replacing Grace Kelly! Or perhaps she is still thinking about the life she will have marrying a man with wandering ways.

I think her frog could have been alittle better looking.

Those royal Monégasques do love their tall, willowy, blonde princesses! Good for him!

Willowy? She is an Olympic level swimmer. She is hard as a rock with big feet and an incredibly wide lat spread.

Hardly willowy.

Willowy meaning long and graceful. Willows are strong, anyhow!

Why do the lives of people who have nothing to do with anything evoke such visceral comments?

Sorry, I don't think this woman is a "stunner", though the beauticians have buffed her to a high sheen. As for Albert, he hardly looks like Prince Charming - more like Ted in Accounting.

Perhaps we should pause and think about what others would say about ourselves before we pass judgement on the physical (versus fashion) attributes of others.

Well at least the Grimaldi's are far more better looking than the Winsdors.I personally think the Grimaldi household are classic and modern at the same time due to the American blood courtesy of the lovely Grace Kelly.At least the world would purge away a little bit from those not so attractive British Royals.

The only flop is the dork standing beside her.

The prince also has a daughter who lives in the U.S.

I thought Prince Albert was gay.

"Do you have Prince Albert in a can?". " Why yes we do.". "Well let him out."

ka nako.
it is is here. it is our time. South Africa is taking over the world.

Oh please! Albert heart is with a black African woman who has a son for him, and he wish he could marry her instead. He will never marry and all this stuff is all phony, for he is pressed to do this, and he has had many engagements and nothing happened.

I know I'm going to get flack about it but Diana was kinda homely and even though prince Charles isnt a handsome man himself couildn't he have done better?

[alaskan]

07:20 AM on 06/24/2010

Better? Exactly HOW? More plastic surgery and more eating disorders? Perhaps Charles could have found a woman who was less obsessed with helping starving orphans and more focused on fighting wrinkles and teeth whitening?

Men who make comments like yours are just pathetic.

Goss was that 'they' tried to put him together with Caroline, but there was no chemistry, and besides she is Catholic. Goss was that Grace Kelly herself would have liked Prince Charles.
