Beautiful combination of jewels. I felt HRH looked very elegant and the black gown/shrug were an excellent choice as the jewels were accented instead of getting lost in another outfit that was more brightly colored. "Less is more" as the saying goes. Is that a brooch closing the shrug or is part of the outfit? Sorry, I'm a little ignorant.

: I much prefer the bandeau (which is a very

: Wouldn't like to see it mirrored in one way
