For yesterday's state banquet at Buckingham Palace, Catherine, Princess of Wales, wore a tiara and earrings belonging to Princess Diana.
, this tiara is almost a century old. Queen Mary commissioned the tiara from Garrard - the first official Crown Jeweller - and is often confused with the Cambridge Lover's Knot Tiara . Queen Elizabeth II gifted the tiara to her daughter-in-law, Princess Diana, in 1981, who wore it to several state banquets .
. As is custom, she also wore a sash across her body as well as the Royal Family Order, which is a gift from the monarch to female members of the Royal Family, depicting Queen Elizabeth II.Earlier in the day to attend the ceremonial welcome of Cyril Ramaphosa, Catherine chose a very special brooch, the Prince of Wales Feather Brooch, which was given to Princess Diana.
