Charles and Camilla Wed; Camilla wears two designer outfits
Saturday April 9, 2005
After much hubbub and many roadblocks, finally everything went smoothly for Prince Charles and Camilla Parker Bowles at their wedding today. In a low key civil ceremony at Town Hall, Princes William and Harry watched their father marry his former mistress, along with only a few other family members. This was followed by a religious blessing of the union for about 800 guests. Yes yes, but what did Camilla wear?
A woman who has been criticized for her lack of style made quite a showing for the civil ceremony in a Robinson Valentine cream silk embroidered coat over a matching cream chiffon dress with appliqued details. She also wore a fabulous Philip Treacy cream-colored hat made of straw, feathers and lace. But it was at the blessing ceremony where she really shone. She wore a floor-length turquoise blue silk dress and matching high-collared coat with beautiful gold embroidery - the design was reportedly inspired by a piece of jewelry belonging to her late mother. This was matched by another Philip Treacy creation - a headdress of gold ostrich feathers with Swarovski crystal tips.
Indeed, the woman once criticized for her dumpy fashion taste looked elegant and stylish. Newspapers are already predicting a Camilla-fed hat craze!
