Whether it's a wedding or a formal state dinner, the royal family knows how to beguile a room with their glittering headpieces. While they are in many ways a symbol of the monarchy, in recent years,&nbsp;<a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/kate-middleton-style-pussy-bow-trend-gucci-blouse" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Kate Middleton</a>&nbsp;has used her gemmed adornments to add a more&nbsp;<a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/personalized-jewelry-trend-meghan-markle-kate-middleton" target="_blank" rel="noopener">sentimental</a>&nbsp;aspect to her ensembles. These history-filled accoutrements&nbsp;are some of the royal family's most iconic pieces of regalia in their collection and each one has a story. Here, look back on some of the most iconic tiara moments from the women of the royal family.

Among the most recent unforgettable tiara moments was Kate Middleton's headpiece at King Charles III's coronation in May 2023. Though not technically a <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/pop-culture/why-kate-middleton-has-only-worn-3-royal-tiaras" target="_blank" rel="noopener">royal tiara</a>, the crystal and silver leaf headpiece was dedicated to Queen Elizabeth II. During the late Queen's coronation in June 1953, her maids each wore similar headpieces the one worn by the Princess of Wales.&nbsp;

For her wedding, <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/pop%20culture/princess-beatrice-engaged-wedding-location-2019" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Princess Beatrice</a> wore Queen Mary's&nbsp;Fringe Tiara, which Queen Elizabeth II also wore on her wedding day to Prince Phillip. The piece features 47 diamonds in a fanned shape. It was also worn by Princess Anne, the Queen's daughter and Beatrice's aunt, for her wedding to Mark Phillips.

Another one of Queen Mary's acquisitions, the Grand Duchess of Vladimir Tiara was passed down to Queen Elizabeth II following her grandmother's death. The diadem can be worn in multiple ways: with emerald, pearls, or no jewels at all. The piece came from Grand Duchess Vladimir, who escaped the revolution in Russia and the fall of the Romanov family. However, before leaving, she hid her most prized jewels within the Vladimir Palace. Her family later paid someone to sneak into the palace, recover the gems, and deliver them to her son in London. After her death, the Grand Duchess Vladimir's family sold the piece to Queen Mary.

In 1953, Queen&nbsp;Elizabeth II received a necklace and pair of earrings made of diamonds and large aquamarine stones&nbsp;from the country of Brazil as a coronation present. She later had a tiara commissioned to match the jewelry set, however, as Brazil continued to gift her with aquamarines, she further adapted the coronet to feature these stones. Here, the Queen dons&nbsp;the&nbsp;Brazilian Aquamarine Parure, complete with&nbsp;the necklace, earrings, and tiara.
