Wearing a floral tiara would convey King Charles' appreciation for nature and flowers, and the coronation is expected to reflect this passion. The official invitation for the event featured a variety of flowers, foliage and insects. It is also rumoured that Queen Camilla's dress could feature a floral motif. Catherine had previously wanted to wear a floral tiara at her wedding, inspired by her mother Carol, who wore flowers in her hair when she married Catherine's father Michael in 1980.

However, Catherine followed tradition and opted to wear the Cartier Halo diamond tiara instead. Recently, previously unseen footage emerged showing a young Catherine and her younger sister Pippa at their uncle Gary Goldsmith's wedding in 1991. Both sisters were little bridesmaids, wearing pink dresses and flower crowns, while a young Catherine happily waved to the camera.

This isn't the first time childhood photos of Catherine and Pippa have been made public. Earlier this year, Carol shared a throwback photo of Catherine, Pippa and her brother James from a family party earlier this year. In September 2012, William and Catherine visited Tuvalu, one of the smallest and most remote countries in the world. Catherine wore a summer dress during their engagements, which included mingling with university students.

Both she and William wore bright floral hats, showing off memorable looks from their tour. An unusual tradition involves visiting dignitaries spritzing the dancers with perfume, and Catherine’s outfit was perfect for the occasion, complete with grass skirts and straw accessories. They attended a fun evening dance before returning to England.

For the ceremony, Catherine channeled her natural Polynesian beauty with a grass skirt and flower crown, exuding a carefree spirit. She kept her accessories minimal, wearing Stuart Weitzman wedges and Catherine Zoraida earrings. William opted for a relaxed look, unbuttoning his shirt while keeping his suit jacket on and going barefoot. The tiny nation of Tuvalu, where the queen remains monarch, welcomed their future king and queen with nearly all of its 10,000 residents in attendance.
