Queen Celebrate 60th Anniversary of her Coronation

AFRIK UPDATE

Today, the monarch, resplendent in a pale gold silk coat and dress with beautiful flower-trimmed hat, was dressed to befit the occasion. 

Wearing a pale gold coat of a delicate silk brocade, she added a flash of colour at the lapel with an eye-wateringly large aquamarine brooch from the Brazil Parure collection of jewels.

Her hat was trimmed on the underside of the brim with a clutch of five silk chiffon blooms in a complementary pale blue tone.

                                                         

National figures gathered at Westminster Abbey ahead of the Queen's 11am arrival for the service celebrating the 60th anniversary of the Queen's coronation.

It was a day to reflect and remember, with a thanksgiving service designed to echo the original Coronation service held within these same ancient walls on 2 June 1953.
