The Princess of Wales wore Queen Victoria’s Oriental Circlet Tiara, designed by Prince Albert, to honor German guests at a white-tie banquet, also wearing late Queen’s jewelry.
- On Dec. 3, 2025, Catherine, Princess of Wales wore Queen Victoria’s Oriental Circlet at the Windsor Castle state banquet honoring German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier.
- Garrard records show the Oriental Circlet was crafted for Queen Victoria in 1853 under Prince Albert and originally featured opals and 2,600 diamonds before Queen Alexandra replaced the opals with rubies.
- Accompanying the headpiece, the Princess wore a Jenny Packham gown, silver Gianvito Rossi pumps , a black Maud Clutch , and diamond earrings of the late Queen Elizabeth.
- The appearance was the tiara's first public showing in nearly two decades and marked the Princess of Wales's first time wearing the Oriental Circlet, previously worn by the Queen Mother and Queen Elizabeth II once during her reign.
- The choice further stood out because the circlet is the Princess's fifth public tiara, known as the Indian Tiara with lotus flowers and Mughal arches wrapping nearly around the head.
