Camilla was poised and elegant in a regal navy gown from Anna Valentine, accessorising with glittering jewels and a diamond and sapphire tiara passed down from the beloved late Queen Elizabeth. Despite her tiara moment, it was her jacket that caught the attention of royal fans - namely because it actually came from her husband Charles' wardrobe.

The Queen Consort chose to wear a traditional daglah to the landmark event.
The long, embroidered coat is a popular cultural garment from Saudi Arabia - and is traditionally worn by grooms during a marriage reception.

The daglah worn by Her Royal Highness on Tuesday was formally presented to King Charles during one of his visits to Saudi Arabia. It was created by acclaimed Saudi designer Yahya Al Bishri and is made from wool and cashmere.
"Love how she wears Charles' clothes!!" wrote one royal fan on Instagram, as another penned: "I love her re-wears! Beautifully done, Queen Camilla."

"I love this piece and the story behind it. It's such a stunning garment," agreed a third fan.
It's not the first time the Queen Consort has adorned the traditional garment. As she took her seat in the front row for the late Queen's Platinum Party at the Palace in June this year, Camilla could be seen wearing the beautiful embroidered gown featuring silver thread and an embellished collar and cuffs.

Meanwhile, Prince William donned a white-tie style tuxedo, as he was pictured in the car alongside his wife, as they made their way to the London reception.
