When Princess Catherine went high, Melania went low at the state banquet for her husband US President Trump, hosted by King Charles at Windsor Castle.

While Catherine’s exquisite couture Chantilly lace evening coat by British designer Phillipa Lepley, buttoned over a silk crepe gown, featured a regal high collar, Melania bared her shoulders in a peppy sunflower yellow crepe column gown from US label Carolina Herrera with a clashing lilac belt.

Apart from a pair of emerald and diamond earrings, Melania took a democratic approach, wearing her hair down. Catherine donned the Lover’s Knot Tiara, her go-to for state banquets. The Princess of Wales seems less susceptible to the headaches which reportedly plagued her mother-in-law Princess Diana when she wore the headpiece.
