Discover the Symbolism in Princess Kate's Coronation Dress and Headpiece: Explore Outfit Details

Princess Kate stole the show with her stunning appearance on the day of King Charles III’s coronation. Details surrounding her Alexander McQueen ivory dress adorned with floral embroidery, including motifs of Great Britain’s four nations, were striking. Kate’s choice to wear a pair of Diana Spencer’s earrings added a poignant touch to her regal outfit. Instead of a tiara, Kate opted for a delicate flower crown from milliner Jess Collett. Meanwhile, Kate’s daughter Princess Charlotte looked equally as adorable wearing her own Alexander McQueen dress and flower crown. The decision to forego a tiara was said to be in line with the King’s request for a toned-down coronation. However, speculation exists that the choice was also made to prevent attention being drawn away from Charles, as Meghan Markle, no longer a working royal, would’ve been entitled to wear one if she had attended.
