Im expecting Amalia to be the main Dutch representative but i'd love it if she was joined by her grandmother Beatrix. No longer a reigning sovereign herself she could attend and it would be nice to see both of them together.
For Beatrix i'd love the diamond fringe tiara as we have never seen her in it and the large diamonds on top make for an impressive piece.
Amalia would look great in the Mellerio Ruby tiara. It's one of the big pieces but both her mother and grandmother wore it before becoming queen.
Spain may see Queen Sofia as it's representative unless there is another diplomatic row over Gibraltar.If she does the shell tiara would be a nice one to wear.
Liechtenstein will probably see the hereditary prince and princess attend. Sophie usually wears the fringe tiara.
I think Albert II of Monaco could very well break with protocol again and attend the coronation of Charles III himself (he did so attending the investiture of king Willem-Alexander) so it's possible princess Charlene might be there as well. Hopefully in her larger tiara. An other option would be for princess Caroline to represent her brother she could wear either one of her grandmother's tiara's.
Im not sure Stephanie of Luxembourg will attend. Her baby is due in april so may 6th might be a bit too soon for her to join her husband.
I am already imagining what the various royal ladies will wear, here are some of my guesses. PS, remember it isn’t customary for sovereigns to attend, so these ladies will represent along with their husbands.
The Crown Princess of Denmark: The Danish ruby parure.
The Crown Princess of Norway: Queen Maud’s diamond and pearl tiara (modified version)
The Crown Princess of Sweden: The Connaught Tiara
The Hereditary Grand Duchess of Luxembourg: The Belgian Scroll tiara
what else might we see at the coronation? And will the young Duchess of Brabant, Princess of The Asturias, and Princess of Orange possibly be old enough to attend for their parents?
