Victoria will take part in the reception dinner so tiaras for silvia and victoria
yay
yay
TBH, I never get tired of the Leuchtenberg set, it is so stunning. The prettiest parure still in use by any royal family IMHO. And it suits the queen very well. I prefer the ruby tiara as a necklace TBH, as a tiara it looks unbalanced.
Tomorrow there will be a state banquet in Luxembourg for the German President Joachim Gauck.
I'm particularly curious to see the tiara of HGD Stephanie. Will she break in another new tiara? Or will she repeat a tiara for the first time? I somehow think that she will wear the butterfly tiara again. It could be a sign that it's her personal tiara and dear to her because of the giver.
I think that the grand duchess will wear the choker tiara or the Societe general tiara.
I hope that the banquet will be amoung the few events she is supposed to attend. At least there is not much moving and standing required.Let's hope that the Grand Duchess will be present at the dinner at all as it was said in the Programm on monarchie.lu that she will not attend most Events because of her operation in September.
Would like to see the amethyst tiara worn by the Grand Duchess on nationakl Day once on Stéphanie but i don't think she will wear it for the State Banquet as the Colours would clash with the german order. Unfortunately the Grand Ducal Family does not have a ruby tiara therefore i guess she will wear a diamond tiara without coloured stones.
I think the Grand Duchess will skip the banquet and give the honneurs to her daughter-in-law, the Hereditary Grand Duchess Stéphanie.
I also hope that Maxima will wear these two tiaras one day. Admittedly the ears-of-wheat is not a favourite of mine. It looks awkward because it has a central dent instead of a central rise. Imo it only works with a wedding veil filling the dent.Queen Máxima can also surprise us with another new diadem, like the diamond Ears-of-Wheat Diadem: https://royaltyaroundtheworld.files.wordpress.com/2014/03/clipboard0116.jpg?w=604 or the Empire Laurel Wreath Diadem: http://www.ppe-agency.com/500px/Oct2006/06103035.jpg

You got your wish, Stefan! The amethyst tiara and necklace for HGD Stephanie once again! The order sash was no issue as there were nor orders and black tie for the gentleman.
From the current photo I can't make out which tiara the GD has hidden in her hair. Maybe the emerald peacock tiara?
Another disappointment: no tiara in Seoul, but Maxima wore two diamond bow brooches in her hair.
Ha, that is nice, I am curious which jewels the Grand Duchess will wear. I must say that most jewels which looked fabulous on Grand Duchess Joséphine-Charlotte or Grand Duchess Charlotte, do not have the same effect on the present Grand Duchess. Her face and body structure are so different and this shows in the overall image.
Oops, sorry for my misunderstanding. The second amethyst tiara really is a mystery, imo. Why have two so extremely similar tiaras? It seems to me that the stones in one are more oval shape while those in the other seem rectangular. But better pics indeed are needed to clarify the matter.I only wanted to see the other amethyst tiara again so that we get better pics from it. I think it could be the ctrine/topaz bandeau on the GD. Pity that the State Banquet was not white tie, so that we could see the sash of our Order worn.
Yes the State Banquet in South Korea was really disappointing and i don't think it deserves the name Gala. I thought it would at last be black tie for the men and long gowns for the woman but it seems sadly more and more Republics lower the dresscode for this Events more and more (like also Kroatia at the State Visit of the danish Royal Couple).
The downgrading of the dress code really is a sad matter, imho. And now even Luxembourg had at black tie State Banquet! Actually I feared that Spain might be the first to go down to black tie, but luckily the last State Banquet was white tie as usual.
At last the luxemburgian ladies also wear their tiaras (albeit smaller) also for black tie Events which would probably not be the case in Spain.
Prince William and Kate Middleton to stand in for the Queen at Royal Variety Performance | Daily Mail Online
I am expecting Catherine to put in a suitably bejewelled appearance at the Royal Variety Show. Might we see the Nizam of Hyderabad necklace again? Thought welcome.
Is the Swedish Nobel Ceremony the next European Tiara Event,or does anyone know of any upcoming State Visits before Christmas?
There will be one of the annual representations Dinners in Sweden on 19.11. and aslo a swedish State Viusit to France at the beginning of December. So we will see plenty of swedish tiaras in the coming weeks.
I would love to see that amazing, fabulous, stunning, huge and glittering necklace with rubies and diamonds from Mouawad again. She only wore it once, and it absolutely deserves another outing VERY soon.
Other big diamond necklaces are also very welcome, but I would love to see the ruby-diamond one again.
