manchestereveningnews.co.ukThe King and Queen led the Royal family in welcoming over 500 diplomats to a dazzling reception at Buckingham Palace. The annual white-tie event is a highlight of the Royal calendar hosted in the Palace's state rooms, with Royal women traditionally donning tiaras and other jewellery pieces.
Camilla shone in the Girls of Great Britain and Ireland Tiara, paired with a diamond brooch and bracelet that once belonged to the late Queen Mother.
The tiara was a wedding gift from Queen Mary to Princess Elizabeth in 1947. Kate sparkled in the Lover's Knot Tiara, a diamond and pearl-encrusted headpiece often worn by Diana, Princess of Wales.
She paired it with a pale pink dress by Jenny Packham, the Royal Family Order, and Greville diamond chandelier earrings as Camilla adorned a cream embroidered evening gown by Fiona Clare, complete with a Garter sash and star.
