Thanks! I patiently await more information on more of the spectacular jewels of the Braganzas. I should say patiently, but eagerly.

: 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
: beautiful piece) worn without a necklace.
: Wouldn't like to see it mirrored in one way
: or the other... The earrings seem to be
: beautiful and the stones look quite
: substantial. From a practical point of view
: I'm rather surprised though about an
: acquisition which is so similar in
: shape/size/colour to the wedding earrings.

: In 20 October 2012 the Hereditary Gran-Duke
: of
: Luxembourg married Countess Stéphanie de
: Lannoy as we all know. We also know that the
: Grand-Dukes offered a Gala Diner in the
: evening of the (religious) wedding. Now what
: is new.
: Because of the amount of guests those were
: divided in two groups for the Gala (that
: toke place in two different places). The
: Dukes of Braganza were family and close
: friends and probably because of that they
: stayed in the main group (even not being a
: reigning family). In this kind of things the
: jewels used by the woman were obviously
: discussed but for some reason nobody really
: cared about the Duchess of Braganza. In fact
: I only read criticisms about her dress and
: the lack of major jewels (for example a
: necklace). But I only can assume that they
: said that because didn’t took attention to
: the earrings used by the Duchess. To me they
: appear to be diamonds with quite big diamond
: pendants. What about you? What do you think?

: P.S - please do not speak of other earrings
: because they probably will have their own
: thread.
