\n

Queen Camilla<\/a> made a striking appearance at the state banquet, stepping out in an elegant all white look for one of the most significant royal occasions of the year. The Queen, 77 looked effortlessly elegant as she stepped out in a flowing cream embroidered gown by Fiona Clare, perfectly suited to the grandeur of Windsor Castle\u2019s State Rooms.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The softly structured silhouette felt timeless and refined, while she chose a familiar favourite in the Belgian Sapphire Tiara – a dazzling piece worth over \u00a35 million that added a rich flash of colour and historic significance to her evening look.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The Queen has turned to this striking tiara on several notable occasions, including her first state banquet as Queen Consort in 2022, and it has since become a trusted choice for high-profile diplomatic events. She paired the diadem with its coordinating sapphire earrings, both once part of Queen Elizabeth II\u2019s collection, alongside a distinctive diamond serpent necklace.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
