While Duchess Kate Middleton wore two pieces of pearls, Queen Elizabeth II opted for a brooch that carries a lot of meaning.
At Prince Philip’s funeral at Windsor Castle, 30 members arrived, all dressed in black.

“The focus this time is definitely not on fashion. However, like many other royal occasions, there are deep tributes to the Duke of Edinburgh made through a number of fashion choices.” The National News comment.

This item was also lent to Princess Diana for a party in November 1982. The highlight is the earrings with Bahrain pearls. When she married Prince Philip in 1947, the queen was given seven large pearls by the Hakim people of Bahrain as a wedding gift. Two of them were designed by her as earrings. This accessory was also worn by Princess Diana. Princess Diana used to wear a pearl necklace in 1982. Photo: Reuters.
