Growing Reports Dress Code for Coronation Will Be ‘Formal Day Dress’

Brittany

To the supreme disappointment of many royal watchers, it seems that King Charles may be sticking with a “formal day dress” for those attending his coronation. This is in stark contrast to his mother’s Coronation in 1953, where all the peers of the realm were dressed up in their finest and the women were all glittering in diamonds and tiaras. His Majesty has been clear in his desire for a more dressed down Coronation, which would include a much smaller crowd of 2,000 compared to his mother’s 8,000 and have a much shorter procession. Given the difficult economic times, this … Continue reading Growing Reports Dress Code for Coronation Will Be ‘Formal Day Dress’

The Queen’s Swan Song – Monarchy Begins the Transition, as Her Majesty Permanently Relocates to Windsor as She Enters the Twilight of Her Reign 

Brittany

Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II, has made the decision to permanently move to Windsor Castle, the ancient royal residence that has existed since William the Conqueror crossed the English Channel in 1066.

At the beginning of the pandemic, the Queen left her main home of Buckingham Palace in London for the seclusion of Windsor Castle, where she can be well-monitored and protected from infection.

It was … Continue reading The Queen’s Swan Song – Monarchy Begins the Transition, as Her Majesty Permanently Relocates to Windsor as She Enters the Twilight of Her Reign
