Tiara Predictions: Japan to United Kingdom

Emperor Naruhito and Empress Masako will be in the UK on 25th to 27th July for a State Visit. The trip will focus on Japanese-British diplomacy, history, biomedical research, museums and biodiversity.

And now to the predictions…

The tiara I want Masako to wear: Imperial Chrysanthemum Tiara. This tiara is reserved for the Empress and Masako is yet to wear it so it’d be lovely if she debuted it today. It was last worn by Empress Emerita, Michiko in January 2012 for the New Year’s Reception.

My prediction: Meiji Scroll Tiara. Masako has only worn this tiara since becoming Empress so it’s a fairly safe bet. It was last worn by Masako in January for the New Year’s Reception.

The tiara I want Camilla to wear: Queen Alexandra’s Kokoshnik. I need this tiara to be worn! So stunning, it’s literally a wall of diamonds and I have a feeling it would suit Camilla so much. It was last worn by Queen Elizabeth in March 2015 for the State Visit from Mexico.

My prediction: Oriental Circlet Tiara. The only tiara that was designed by Prince Albert that still belongs to the British Royal Family (and my personal least favourite), I think this would be a suitable tiara for the State Banquet as it’s suitably large, historic and ornate for a visit from the Emperor. It was last worn by Queen Elizabeth in 2006 on a visit to Malta.

The tiara I want Sophie to wear: Aquamarine Ribbon Tiara. I will admit that I haven’t liked the way that Sophie has styled this tiara in the past so I just want to see it with big hair at the front to hide the gap or for Sophie to have re-worked it. It was last worn in October 2018 for the Dutch State Visit.

My prediction: Her wedding tiara. I’ve mostly chosen non-colourful tiaras for everyone else so Sophie’s only all diamond tiara matches that. It was last worn in June 2019 for the State Visit from the US.

The tiara I want Birgitte to wear: Iveagh Tiara. My favourite Gloucester tiara. Aside from Queen Victoria’s Sapphire Tiara, this tiara is probably the one that I wish Queen Mary would’ve kept within the main family line. It was last worn by Birgitte at the CHOGM reception in 2018.

My prediction: Cartier Indian Tiara. This tiara is large, sparkly and will suit the other tiaras on display. It was last worn by Birgitte in November 2022 for the State Visit from South Africa.

While I don’t think any of the following will be at the banquet, in the unlikely event that one of them does attend my predictions are as follows:

Catherine, the Princess of Wales: Lotus Flower Tiara (but I’d love it if she wore the Sapphire Sunburst Bandeau)

Princess Beatrice: York Tiara

Princess Eugenie: Greville Emerald

Princess Alexandra: Ogilvy Tiara

Princess Michael of Kent: Kent Festoon

My 10 favorite royal bridal necklaces in no specific order.

[royal-confessions]

“Countess Alexandra's red ball gown from her engagement portrait doesn't get talked about enough imo. She looked wow. The shape of the skirt, the tiara hairstyle, the off shoulder neckline, the embroidery!!! Everything about the look just came together most wonderfully. The only nitpick is that Margrethe gave her that ugly tiara but otherwise it was definitely the best wedding/engagement portrait to come out of denmark between her, cp Mary and princess Marie.” - Submitted by Anonymous

Who was Countess Lily Malevsky-Malevitch based on?

Translated from Danish to English via the app.

"Did you know... The lady in court Lily Malevsky-Malevitch, played by Julie Steincke, is inspired by Cecilia Gustavovna Grünwald - also called Kiki - who until her death lived in a small apartment on Venøgade in Østerbro?

Kiki was Empress Maria Feodorovna's Maiden from 1890 until the Empress's death in Copenhagen in 1928. During the revolution, she followed the widowed empress through a Russia in chaos. From St. Petersburg to Livadia Palace in Crimea. From 1917-1919, they lived under house arrest while hearing about the persecution and murders of the Zar family and their officers.

In 1919, the Empress of Widow was persuaded to flee, first to England and then to Denmark, where she as the Danish-born princess Dagmar moved into Hvidøre Castle at Klampenborg with Kiki and her servants. After the death of the Empress, Kiki settled on Østerbro.

In Russia, Kiki was often called "the most powerful woman in the country". When the Czar couldn't receive the crowd seeking the audience, they turned to Kiki. She was able to convey their wishes to the Empress while she cut her hair. As a maid of honor, Kiki was also responsible for the Empress's wardrobe and jewels.

The musical Anastasia is inspired by the historical events and the film of the same name, in which the Empress of Widow and Lily have sought refuge in Paris.

A magnificent and epic adventure. Danmarkspremiere 19. september."
