Kate Middleton, the Princess of Wales, will twinkle in sparkling diamonds in the form of a magnificent tiara at such a state banquet. This exclusive evening is held in the honor of French President Emmanuel Macron and Mme. Brigitte Macron. The final stage of the event will happen at Windsor Castle from July 8th to July 10th, 2025. This will be a big occasion for Middleton, serving as her first tiara moment since December 2023.
Kate Middleton will once again don the iconic Lover’s Knot tiara, a favorite from the royal family’s jewelry collection. We last saw her in this beautiful tiara for the annual Diplomatic Corps reception at Buckingham Palace in 2019. The tiara features a beautifully ornate, lacy design. Boasting the best ingredients like pearls and diamonds, this beauty seems to be an apt choice for a pearlish affair.
Middleton has sparkled in none other than four different tiaras from the royal collection while representing the British royal family as a full-time royal. Among them is perhaps their most famous piece — the incredible Lover’s Knot tiara. These are the Cartier Halo, Lotus Flower, and Strathmore Rose tiaras. She did borrow a tiara for the first time on her wedding day, when she married Prince William in 2011. That magical moment was just the start of her royal adventure, though.
The Princess of Wales has wildly popularized the concept of show-stopping, sophisticated style on the red carpet. For her first official state banquet, Middleton will sparkle in a stunning pink sequined Jenny Packham gown. She will of course wear it beautifully with the unique Lover’s Knot tiara. This Audi, though, signals her trendsetting departure from convention. It maintains her long-standing practice of wearing magnificent tiaras at major occasions such as state banquets and royal weddings.
The aways-important state visit from President Macron and his wife is always an important diplomatic occasion, this year significantly more. Buckingham Palace confirmed the details of their visit, stating, “The President of the French Republic, His Excellency Emmanuel Macron, accompanied by Mrs. Brigitte Macron, has accepted an invitation from His Majesty The King to pay a State Visit to the United Kingdom from Tuesday 8th July to Thursday 10th July 2025.” This visit will bring an exciting new dimension to the growing links between the United Kingdom and France.
