However when the couple made their formal entrance as husband and spouse at their reception that night, Princess Charlene had swapped her marriage ceremony gown for a slinkier robe (additionally Armani) and added a glittering diamond tiara which incorporates a “spray” of diamonds like a “wave breaking over her head”—in a nod to the Princess’s preroyal profession as an Olympic swimmer.

The piece, that includes pear-shaped diamonds, was commissioned as a present by Prince Albert II and dubbed the “Diamond Foam Tiara” by its maker. On the night of her nuptials, Princess Charlene wore the tiara in direction of the again of her head, as a chic addition to her swirling chignon. Final evening, it was worn in a extra Twenties fashion on the entrance of her head—a sign, maybe, that she didn’t need this main tiara second to be missed.
