Do you think that prince William had worn knee breeches with the garter under his knee for the Diplomatic Corps Reception? Prince Charles has worn knee breeches to these events.
Or is prince William too modern for knee breeches?

Don't look like Camilla wore her royal family Order either. Is this picture from this years event?

I don't know if William wear his Garter under his knee for these events. We haven't seen any pictures of this event when they attended so we can't say.

This picture is from 2005 or 2006, that's why Camilla is not wearing her orders, sorry for not pointing that out!

 

[Molly2101]

^^^ Yes the photo is old as Edward is in the background behind Camilla.

On a side note....what is Charles wearing?...

 

[Skippyboo]

He wearing the knee breeches with his order of the Garter garter on leg.

 

[Molly2101]

It looks odd but if it works!

Did I remember correctly that William is also attending the British Military Tournament today, as well as the Wessex's and Gloucester's?

 

[wyevale]

.what is Charles wearing?...

He is wearing formal Court evening Dress {rarely seen these days, but} de rigeur in the last reign, and in the early years of the current one.

 

[Dman]

So funny how there are photos of this event and sometimes not. Just odd.

I really like the Official Court Dress. I hope Charles and William keep it going.

William is going on Sunday

 

[Queen Camilla]

OMG, I hadn't noticed the knee breeches.

AdmirerUS, Thanks for the info on the necklace.

The council, which usually meets twice a year, has been attended by William before and is in control of the Duchy of Cornwall estates.

You know, I just love the fact that The Queen has taken Camilla & Catherine under her wing and decided to do these joint engagements with them.

 

[VictoriaB]

Thank you for the links.

I think it's lovely that Camilla chose to wear a Bruce Oldfield design considering he is a former Barnado's Boy himself.

Lovely photos. Love Her Majesty, and the Duchess decorating the Christmas tree.

 

[princess gertrude]

Love the way the Queen stops and goes right over to the children. I bet she is a fantastic granny and great-granny. I do love watching the Queen and Duchess do these joint engagements.
