Queen Camilla<\/a> was a picture of elegance on Wednesday as she stepped out alongside King Charles<\/a> for the State Opening of Parliament<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The royal, 78, wore a beautiful embroidered white dress by Fiona Clare featuring a Queen Anne neckline, full-length sleeves and a beautiful train. She added a modern touch with her silver heels, but it wouldn’t be a State Opening of Parliament outfit without an heirloom jewel.<\/p>\n

It features an incredible 1,333 diamonds, including a yellow four-carat brilliant set in the centre alongside two rows of pearls. It also features a subtle nod to England, Scotland and Ireland with each country’s national emblems \u2013 roses, thistles and shamrocks, respectively.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Queen Camilla never misses when it comes to her tiara moments \u2013 and she has worn such an array from the royal vault. 2025 was a year of many tiara outings, largely owing to the number of State Banquets that she attended. But there was also a fabulous diadem sighting in March. Keep scrolling to see proof\u2026<\/p>\n
