What do others think Queen Camilla might wear in Germany? Posted by Beth on March 27, 2023, 9:26 pm What jewels do you think Queen Camilla will wear in Germany? I am expecting to see rubies for the formal evening as red is one of the German colours. But there will be day time engagements, an opportunity to wear some brooches also. Any guesses?

Hopefully her jewels (Oriental Ruby Tiara and ruby necklace if white tie, or one of her own amazing ruby necklaces if black tie) at the State Dinner will be supplemented with the Royal Family Orders of King Charles III and Queen Elizabeth II.

Re: What do others think Queen Camilla might wear in Germany? Posted by Juscha on March 28, 2023, 2:48 am, in reply to "Re: What do others think Queen Camilla might wear in Germany?" As far as I know there is any jewellery connected to Germany. For the first meeting something neutral, pearls and some flower brooch or garland style (a Bow brooch or Richmond brooch?). Maybe something from QMary? It is reception with military honors. In the evening state reception: if red stones then Burma Ruby Tiara, although this might be to small for Queen Camilla. So, perhaps red dress and white jewels, Dehli Durbar and Greville Necklace. It seems that Queen Camilla will not accompany the King on Thursday (speech in the Bundestag, meeting with refugees of Ukraine, meeting german-britisch Pioneer Battalion and a village with organic farming). That is a lot of program. Instead she will went to the Komische Oper with Elke Büdenbender in the afternoon. Didn´t the late Queen got a brooch in form of a clef? I doubt there will be time to dress up for the reception of the British Embassy in the evening after the programm in Hamburg. The location has quite an industrial charm and I guess the King and Queen will leave Hamburg immediately after it. So I don´t expect tiara but pearls, maybe a choker with colored brooch, and one of the very big flower brooches.

Re: What do others think Queen Camilla might wear in Germany? Posted by Dave on March 28, 2023, 1:27 pm, in reply to "What do others think Queen Camilla might wear in Germany?" I'd love to see jewels associated with King George 3rd and his wife Queen Charlotte or jewels from the wife of King William 4th and then Queen Victoria as the last of the Hanovarians. So the diamond fringe tiara from the wife of king William and the amethyst from Queen Victoria's mother the Duchess of Kent would be more suited to a country that those royals had deep heritage in. The British royals need to debut more of the vaulted jewels we know nothing about. I'd love to see Camilla at the banquet in ropes of diamond Collier necklaces as did Queen Mary did and the amethyst brooches on her bodice and the small spiked diamond crown QV dawned in her final days, or the diamond feathers or are they wheat leaves which can form a crown' she should make either of them stand higher with a set of diamonds at the base. Lots of ropes pearls for another formal event with a stomacher from Queen Mary down her bodice or at the front of her dress. The diamond bows come to mind for the upper part of her body and as Sash holders. Dark and white stones such as amethyst would be more suitable after the death of such an iconic Queen. Regards, Dave.

Re: What do others think Queen Camilla might wear in Germany? Posted by Mike on March 28, 2023, 9:06 pm, in reply to "What do others think Queen Camilla might wear in Germany?" I am wondering about the Sapphire brooch that Prince Albert gave Queen Victoria as a wedding present. Although it is very similar to the Russian Sapphire brooch worn recently by her majesty. It is very historical and has a background from part of modern Germany. Re the rubies I am wondering if they were earmarked for France? Going for Greville Tiara and the lesser (2 strand Greville necklace). Camilla seems to be quite down to earth, and I think she will continue to gradually ease her way into jewelry worn by her mother in law.
