Royal Hats 
Absolutely loved the Reiwa video in English! Thank you so much for posting the link. Nobody does ceremony better than the Japanese!
Good to see Lady Louise and her father wearing sensible headgear while riding – but do my eyes deceive me, or is the young lady also wearing a bulletproof vest? I sincerely hope I am mistaken. Having people take photos of you every time you stir out of doors is probably stressful enough without worrying about people taking potshots at you as well.
Deborah, in a different publication, that was referred to as a back support. Not being a rider myself, I don’t know under what circumstances this might be necessary, but I hope Louise does not have any serious medical problem or injury that would necessitate it.
I ride, a little bit, and it may be a protective vest if she does jumping to prevent injury from falls or trampling.
Thanks to you both for the clarification!
I don’t know if this was covered here previously, but there were multiple black lace mantillas worn June 17 at the funeral of Elizabeth-Ann de Massey, first cousin of Prince Albert II of Monaco. The first photo shows (from left to right) Caroline, Charlene, and Elizabeth’s daughter Melanie in mantillas, while the second photo shows Caroline’s daughter Alexandra of Hanover in a mantilla.

Hope you’re recovering HatQueen after all those hats from home were shared! While I’m sad we didn’t get a traditional Hat Christmas this year, I’m glad people remained in the spirit and weren’t afraid to show off last week despite all the shutdowns and quarantines.
