As I suggested in my comment above about Kathleen Walker's use of a pearl necklace or band in her hair for her wedding last weekend to Imre of Austria (see the third picture in the link I posted), I agree with you about the pearl strand idea. Pretty effect in the picture you chose. --Previous Message-- : Golden Poppies and the Art Nouveau birdcage : tiara of Queen Marie are certainly unusual, : but not necklaces or bracelets worn as : tiaras. : Although, I suspect the poppies could be : detached and worn on a necklace. : : Here is one of my opinions on a 'good' : attempt at necklace-as-tiara. Grand Duchess : Marie Adelaide is wearing a strand of pearls : as a tiara/hair ornament. Modern royal : ladies should try this once in a while, with : the right coiffure it might look : magnificent. : : : : Here is a one that I haven't decided if I : think is a good or a bad. Not sure if this : is a bracelet or tiara. Lovely stones, : though. : : : : : --Previous Message-- : Explanation please! : : --Previous Message-- : Ohhh the golden poppies! I'd forgotten these : ones. Definatelly not my favourite head : gear... I just think the poppies could be : arranged in a more appealing way, perhaps in : a frame, like the new greenlandic gold tiara : of the Queen (that I am eager to see her : wear btw). : : : : : --Previous Message-- : The Ugly....Not HM, just the head piece : : --Previous Message-- : Not exactly a tiara, but timely: Imre of : Austria's bride seems to have worn a pearl : necklace as part of a bridal headdress at : her wedding on Saturday in Washington, D.C. : Very pretty, understated and subtle effect, : with a stunning veil. : : : : : : : http://www.tageblatt.lu/people/story/Erzherzog-Imre-heiratet-Kathleen-Walker-20077640 : : --Previous Message-- : A few years ago I started a topic named : after : a famous old American movie, the goal was to : stimulate discussion on the various : successes (or lack of) when royal ladies use : necklaces or bracelets as tiaras. Since : it's been so long, I thought maybe it might : be fun to resurrect it, especially since we : have new members on board and possibly new : sources of lovely photos. : : Like last time, I'm afraid my nominee for : worst attempt at wearing a necklace as a : tiara has to be for the late Grand Duchess : of Luxembourg and her sapphire : necklace/tiara. To me, it's just all wrong. : Nothing about it makes sense, sorry to say. : Perhaps it is instead a tiara sometimes : worn as a necklace? It is a very confusing : piece to me. : : : : : : : : : : : : : :
