Kate’s choice of tiara has a connection to Princess Diana, who often wore it after Queen Elizabeth gifted it to her. Originally commissioned from the House of Garrard in 1913 for Queen Mary, the tiara was designed as a replica of the Cambridge Lover’s Knot Tiara. The headpiece features diamonds and pearls set in silver and gold.
The banquet, which is a celebration for the end of the first of a three-day state visit, is part of the first Omani state visit to the UK in 44 years. Earlier today, the Princess of Wales welcomed the Sultan of Oman to Windsor Castle, wearing a beloved green Alexander McQueen coat and a classic quilted Chanel bag.
