A year ago today, the world was captivated as the Princess of Wales made a striking appearance at the coronation ceremony.<\/p>\n

Princess Catherine graced the event in a magnificent ivory Alexander McQueen gown, accompanied by Prince William.<\/p>\n

The exquisite dress featured intricate silver bullion and threadwork embroidery, showcasing symbols of rose, thistle, daffodil, and shamrock representing the four nations.<\/p>\n

Instead of a traditional tiara, she adorned a matching jeskalette ex-Alexander McQueen headpiece, adorned with silver bullion, crystal, and three-dimensional leaf embroidery.<\/p>\n

Known for her impeccable fashion choices, the Princess has often opted for Alexander McQueen during significant moments in her life.<\/p>\n

In a heartfelt tribute to her late mother-in-law, Princess Diana, she accessorized with a pair of Diana’s pearl and diamond earrings.<\/p>\n

These earrings, gifted to Diana before her marriage to Prince Charles in 1981, hold a special place in the royal family’s history.<\/p>\n

Princess Catherine had previously worn these heirlooms at the BAFTAs in 2019, showcasing their timeless elegance.<\/p>\n

The gown, meticulously detailed with the floral emblems of the home nations, was a true masterpiece.<\/p>\n

The English rose, Scottish thistle, Welsh daffodil, and Irish shamrock were delicately embroidered onto the fabric, adding a touch of symbolism to the regal ensemble.<\/p>\n

Despite the gown being partially concealed by the Royal Victorian Order Mantle upon her arrival at Westminster Abbey, the Princess radiated elegance and grace throughout the ceremony.<\/p>\n

During the iconic moment on the Buckingham Palace balcony, Princess Catherine chose to forego the formal robe, allowing the gown to take center stage in the official coronation photograph.<\/p>\n

However, keen-eyed royal enthusiasts were quick to notice a subtle difference in the neckline of the dress between the Abbey and the balcony appearances.<\/p>\n

Speculation arose regarding the possibility of the Princess having two dresses made for the occasion, although the embroidered skirt remained consistent.<\/p>\n

The mystery surrounding the neckline discrepancy was eventually clarified by Royal expert Alastair Bruce.<\/p>\n

According to Bruce, Princess Catherine wore an additional cape over the gown to shield it from the weight of the mantle and chains required for the ceremonial proceedings.<\/p>\n

This revelation put to rest the speculation and highlighted the meticulous planning and attention to detail that went into the Princess’s regal attire for the historic event.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
