On December 3, the Prince and Princess of Wales hosted a state banquet at Windsor Fortress in honor of German president Frank-Walter Steinmeier and his spouse, Elke Büdenbender. On the white-tie affair, Kate Middleton wore a blue Jenny Packham robe and what Individuals says is the most important tiara she’s ever worn — Queen Victoria’s huge Oriental Circlet tiara, which was made in 1853 and options 2,600 diamonds and a group of rubies.
Naturally, followers on social media questioned how this large tiara stayed on high of her head all night time, however it seems like we will thank her hairstylist: In images launched of the again of her head, it seems that items of Middleton’s hair have been wrapped a number of occasions across the base of the tiara, securing it and all of its jewels in a good knot.
I at all times marvel at how the Tiaras keep fastened on the royal women heads, particularly when it’s a greater piece just like the one Catherine wore tonight👌🏽
I really like that we get a great have a look at how Catherine used her hair in a knot to safe the beautiful heirloom on her head🤩😍… pic.twitter.com/2FZBPXqFrj

It’s doubtless that the royal hairstylists do that styling trick each time a royal crown is worn, however since Garrard describes the Oriental Circlet tiara as one in every of “crucial Victorian-era jewels within the Royal Assortment” I’m positive they made Middleton’s knot further tight. God save the glam squad.
