Royal Fashion Choices at King Charles and Queen Camilla’s Coronation
With the highly anticipated coronation of King Charles and Queen Camilla at Westminster Abbey just over a month away, all eyes are on the Royal Family’s fashion choices for this historic event.
One person whose outfit has been the subject of much speculation is Catherine, the Princess of Wales.
Reports suggest that her coronation ensemble is still under discussion, leading to fears that she may break with tradition.
Traditionally, royal women at past coronations have worn tiaras.
Even young Princess Elizabeth and Princess Margaret wore coronets at George VI’s crowning in 1937.

However, there are whispers that this time around, the dress code may be more low-key.
Rumors suggest that tiaras may be replaced by hats, as Charles is said to be following the example of some of his European counterparts who have opted for a daytime formal dress code for their own coronations.
This speculation has left many royal watchers anxious as they eagerly anticipate seeing the royal ladies, including Catherine and Sophie, the Duchess of Edinburgh, donning their finest gowns and jewelry for this momentous occasion.
One royal jewelry expert, Lauren Kiner, who runs the popular blog The Court Jeweller, pointed out that this could be part of the trend towards de-formalizing the British royal world in recent decades.
“I’m certainly hoping we’ll see coronation tiaras, but it’s possible that Charles is setting a daytime formal dress code for the event,” explained Kiner.
“That would mean that we could still see some grand jewels like necklaces, brooches, and earrings, but no tiaras.
It’ll be sad if that’s true, but it may be just another part of the changing times in the British royal world.”
Amidst the speculation and uncertainty, there are two people who will definitely be wearing glittering crowns on the day of the coronation: King Charles and Queen Camilla.
In a departure from recent history, Camilla will be wearing Queen Mary’s crown, which has been set with the Cullinan III, IV, and V diamonds, previously part of Queen Elizabeth’s personal jewelry collection.
The Cullinan III and IV diamonds were worn together as a brooch and are estimated to be worth over £50 million.
Additionally, four of the crown’s detachable arches will be removed to give it a refreshed look compared to when Queen Mary wore it over 100 years ago.
On the other hand, Charles will be crowned with the traditional St Edward’s crown, a historic symbol of monarchy that has been carefully preserved and modified for the occasion.
The crown had been temporarily removed from the Tower of London for modification work but has now been returned to display, adding to the anticipation and excitement surrounding the coronation.
As the royal family continues to plan and finalize their outfits for this historic event, there is a sense of tradition meeting modernity.
While some anxiously await the inclusion of tiaras in the royal ladies’ ensembles, others may see a potential departure from this tradition as a sign of the royal family adapting to changing times and setting new trends.
It is worth noting that throughout history, fashion has always played a significant role in the portrayal of royalty, and the British royal family is no exception.
From Queen Elizabeth II’s iconic outfits to Princess Diana’s groundbreaking fashion choices, royal fashion has often been a reflection of the times and a way for the royal family to connect with the public.
As the monarchy evolves, so does its fashion, and the coronation of King Charles and Queen Camilla could be another milestone in this evolution.
Of course, with Catherine known for her impeccable sense of style and her ability to effortlessly blend sophistication and modernity, her outfit for the coronation is highly anticipated.
