National Post to Camilla: You're not as pretty as Diana, therefore we don't like you

So the heir to the British throne and his latest wife are on our continent for the first time since their wedding, and misogynistic royal watchers are eagerly gaping for any opportunity to list the ways that Camilla isn't a thing like the overexposed, uberexpensive, recast-Candle-in-the-Wind, bulimic Princess Die Di.

Oh, I'm sorry.  Was that in poor taste? If you thought so, you're probably still experiencing the aftermath of the "Diana can do no wrong" cult, founded on the principle that the stylish woman who took her gloves off to embrace AIDS hospice patients can be forgiven for all sins against propriety, gender or good taste.   

Certainly the National Post is still captivated by such echoes of the dead princess, choosing to recast Camilla with Diana's public identification of her as "the Rottweiler," and, despite the newfound surge, in "Camilla chic," chastising the Duchess of Cornwall's former "frumpy" duds:

For her part, the Duchess will play up her no-nonsense, hard-nosed charm, and with the help of her dressing staff, lend fresh meaning to the fledgling phrase "Camilla chic." Whatever it means, it at least marks the end of her frumpy public image, best characterized by Princess Diana as "the Rottweiler."

Whereas the preciously coiffed and ever-princessy Diana presumably made all of her clothing decisions herself, the National Post wants Canadians to note that Camilla has yet to master the complexity of buttons and zippers, and is helpless without "the help of her dressing staff." Whatever "Camilla chic" means, it's irrelevant to any of us New Worlders, really, since she used to be frumpy, the ultimate in unforgivable sins for a woman to commit.  What, be brash, dirty and actually ride in her riding clothes, instead of parading them down a red carpet? That old boot.  What a way for a woman to behave!
