Royal Hats

Tatiana Santo Domingo’s fair trade fashion line “Muzungu Sisters” showed a collection at Monaco Fashion Week 2017 yesterday. She wore an interesting headpiece from the collection to a related event Thursday night where she was joined by her husband and sisters-in-law Beatrice Borromeo and Princess Alexandra. Bohemian royal tiara, anyone?

 King Albert and Queen Paola in casual hats for their recent visit to the Basilica of Avioth in French Lorraine. We’ve not seen Queen Paola much this year following her back injury and it’s great to see her up and around.

Great snap of King Juan Carlos and King Felipe taken yesterday at the 300th anniversary of the Marine Guard Company in Marín. Both kings are former graduates of the naval academy and looked quite dapper in their summer naval whites.

Queen Máxima, November 3, 2014 | Royal Hats

I need to begin with a correction- the sand coloured calot hat worn by Queen Máxima in South Korea earlier this week seen at the right was not made by Fabienne Delvigne, as I originally reported. My apologies for this miscommunication.

Spanish King and Heir Honor San Hermenegildo Order

Posted on by

King Juan Carlos of Spain and the Princes of Asturias attended the biannual meeting of San Hermenegildo Order today in San Lorenzo de El Escori. Photos of this father and son, who were both dressed in military uniform with caps, were all the more poignant after King Juan Carlos’ abdication announcement yesterday. Prince Felipe, who stands 6 feet 5 inches tall, is going to make a very stately and distinguished king, isn’t he?
