The Princess of Wales paid a sweet tribute to Diana and Queen Elizabeth as she arrived for the coronation. Kate arrived at Westminster Abbey with her husband, the Prince of Wales, and two of their children, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis.
She looked regal in a deep blue Royal Victorian Order mantle edged in scarlet over an Alexander McQueen embroidered ivory silk crepe dress. The princess wore a silver bullion, crystal and silver thread work three-dimensional leaf embroidery headpiece by Jess Collett x Alexander McQueen, Liverpool Echo reports.
Kate, who chose a Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen gown for her wedding in 2011, and the Prince of Wales both wore formal robes and mantels, with the princess without a tiara, at the request of the King and Queen. But the princess chose to wear pearl and diamond earrings which belonged to Diana, Princess of Wales, in a touching tribute to William’s late mother.
