Not only did Kate Middleton’s dress captivate the audience, but her accessories also added to the regal ensemble.
She wore a magnificent three-dimensional headpiece made of silver threadwork, crystal, and silver bullion.
The hat, a collaboration between Jess Collett and Alexander McQueen, perfectly complemented her outfit.
It has been reported that King Charles and Queen Camilla preferred not to have the Princess of Edinburgh or Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh, wear an official tiara to the ceremony.
However, Kate Middleton adorned a Royal Victorian Order mantle in deep blue with a crimson edging, adding a touch of royalty to her look.
The choice of earrings was a heartfelt tribute to Prince William’s late mother, Diana, Princess of Wales.
Kate wore a pair of pearl and diamond earrings that once belonged to Princess Diana.
These exquisite earring studs featured a horseshoe-shaped setting made of baguette diamonds, with a leafy design wrapping above and below it.
A diamond piece was suspended from a pearl drop, creating a truly elegant and sentimental touch.
The significance of Princess Diana’s presence was felt throughout the coronation, as Kate Middleton paid homage to the beloved princess.
It is worth mentioning that both Prince William and Prince Harry’s brides have been seen wearing Diana’s cherished jewelry, carrying on her legacy.
Adding to the allure of her ensemble, Kate Middleton also wore Queen Elizabeth II’s George VI Festoon necklace.
This stunning three-strand necklace, adorned with 105 loose diamonds, was commissioned by King George VI in 1950 for his daughter.
The necklace held sentimental value as it was one of the late monarch’s favorites.
Social media erupted with praise for Kate Middleton’s coronation attire.
Twitter users praised her elegance and beauty, with one user, @atjer6728, describing her as “truly amazing.”
