      I agree 100%! Sophie is a wonderful, sweet, kind representative of the BritishRoyal Monarchy. Everything she chose to wear, for this State Visit, exemplified her strength as a Princess of the United Kingdom, as well as her loyalty, her steadfastness, her love of the Montbatten-Windsor family, and her devotion to the King and Queen Of Great Britain!
      Btw, I actually find the the Ruby Burmese Tiara very pretty with the delicate, spindly design. The arch isn’t the best, but overall, the spindles reaching for the central, gorgeous Ruby, create a balanced, harmonic weight in the centralized design, while the rest of he Tiara is trying to support the central arch in a subtle, brilliant pop of Ruby red!!! It is not the most alluring, gorgeously balanced Tiara, but it is a stunning Tiara, nonetheless. IMHO. 👍🥰☮️💟💗

Queen Elizabeth was a tiny woman, and she could easily be dwarfed by her own jewelry, and often wore very large pieces together, which made her look even smaller. Queen Camilla is much taller, wider shouldered, and wears her hair bigger than Queen Elizabeth's more compact, never-changing helmet. However, I would like to see Queen Camilla change the hair up a little bit.

    Maybe have a few in reserve for the queen. But she can only wear one tiara, necklace, brooch, pair of earrings, etc at a time.

      Tiaras aren’t restricted to queens or princesses. Many noble families own tiaras (e.g the Spencer tiara) and even non-titled commoners have worn them (e.g. Elizabeth Taylor). Furthermore, Sophie is married to Prince Edward so technically she’s a princess by marriage but she can’t use the title Princess before her name as she isn’t one in her own right. She’d be addressed as Princess Edward in the same way as Princess Michael of Kent whose first name is Marie-Christine.

      Sophie IS a Princess. Her husband is Prince Edward and has been elevated from Earl of Wessex to the Duke of Edinburgh.
      For the Americans....
      A Royal Ducal title ( not an Aristocratic Duke) is a higher rank than a mere Prince.
      So Sophie as Duchess of Edinburgh is higher than using her husband's Prince title where she would use Princess Edward.

They didn't want anything to do with his family but still insist on using titles that are irrelevant in the U.S. I truly hope King Charles strips them of their titles. They're an embarrassment to the RF, but more importantly, they caused the Queen so much heartache during her final years.

    U should be interested in the family orders of the BRF as it’s quite political. After Di and Fergie received it straight away after marrying in, QEII was a bit more careful about handing it out. I can’t remember how long it took for Sophie and Camilla to receive it, but Catherine only received it after being married to William after 7 years of marriage, and Megan never received QEII’s family order. It’ll be interesting to see how Charles goes about handing his out. Plus they’re surrounded by diamonds so lots of sparkle!

    Although I’m guessing that the lotus tiara was meant to be worn by Catherine had she been able to attend the event, I admit that Sophie looked gorgeous in it. I also think that she deserves more prominent pieces of jewelry given the position she now has in the Royal Family. Previously I thought that the somewhat limited choice of tiaras Sophie and Catherine had, might have had something to do with the fact that the access to the vault was managed by Angela Kelly who was famous for being difficult to deal with (not only for M.M.). So, I’m looking forward to see the royal ladies wearing pieces that lay long unused.

    It’s interesting that behind the scenes Queen Camilla would have been the one who chose to loan the Lotus Tiara to Sophie. There is a thought process, protocol, hierarchy and symbolism behind the choice of Tiaras. There are also historical, cultural & political factors to be taken into consideration depending on the occasion and who the dignitaries are. I think its fair to say that Tiaras are much more meaningful than meets the eye. I also think it shows that Queen Camilla really values Sophie.

The piece, which features a delicate design and gorgeous Egyptian-inspired motifs, was a transformation of one of the Queen Mother’s wedding gifts: a diamond and pearl sautoir given to her by her new husband. The tiara later became one of Princess Margaret’s signature pieces, and it was most recently worn by the Duchess of Cambridge.
