The royal family celebrated French state visit with a grand banquet at Windsor

President Emmanuel Macron and First Lady Brigitte Macron were hosted at a lavish state banquet by the royal family on Tuesday evening, and members of the Crown did not disappoint with their fashion choices.
Kate Middleton and Queen Camilla attended the festivities in their best evening garbs, with both of the royal ladies sporting contrasting tiaras.
The Princess of Wales wore a red Givenchy gown, designed by Sarah Burton, and topped off the look with the Lover’s Knot tiara.
While the Queen showed up in a pristine white creation from Fiona Clare, and wore the more opulent Belgian Sapphire Tiara, according to her higher rank.
Notably, with the First Lady’s blue choice for the occasion, the three women highlighted the shared colours between the French and the English national flags.
The red, white, and blue colours being part of both the French Tricolour and the English Union Jack highlighted a powerful message of unity and strong diplomatic ties between the two nations.
Meanwhile, Kate Middleton attended her first state banquet in two years, and was joined by Prince William for the event held on July 8.
Whereas Queen Camilla accompanied King Charles in hosting their French guests at the diplomatic gathering.
