Puzzled fans noticed the Princess of Wales' outfit change
The Princess of Wales finally treated keen royal fans to a full look at her mesmerising Coronation dress in the official portraits that were released from the big day
However, eagle-eyed royal fans were puzzled to notice that the distinctive V-shaped necklace of the gown in the official photo was seemingly different to when Kate was at the abbey and appeared to have a round neck frock on. Alastair Bruce, Sky News commentator and royal expert, claims that Kate wore an additional cape over the top of her dress to prevent it from being damaged by the heavy mantle and chains she was required to wear over the top.
It appears that for the official Coronation photos, Kate removed the cape, revealing the detailed V-shaped neckline and the stunning George VI Festoon family heirloom necklace around her neck which was a gift to the late Queen Elizabeth in 1950. The Princess was straight back to work yesterday after a packed weekend of Coronation celebrations as she and William hosted a Buckingham Palace garden party alongside the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh.
