Queen Camilla's Dress at Coronation Needed a Lot of Assistance to Stay Dry in the Rainy Weather!

The weather is not holding up for King Charles’ Coronation and his wife Queen Camilla needed some assistance to make sure her dress didn’t get ruined by the wet ground.

The 75-year-old wife of the new monarch was seen having her grandchildren help carry the back of her dress while exiting the carriage at Westminster Abbey on Saturday morning (May 6) in London, England.

Camilla is wearing a Bruce Oldfield couture dress that was designed to match her husband’s robes and she’s wearing a necklace that Queen Elizabeth wore to her coronation in 1953.

“I am honored to have been asked to design such an historic gown for Her Majesty. This really is the most important commission of my life. Very exciting and very special,” Bruce Oldfield told WWD.

“I have been designing outfits for the queen for over a decade now. The coronation dress is a style and silhouette that Her Majesty likes very much and it is sophisticated and appropriate for an occasion of grandeur such as this,” Bruce added. “An interesting element of the gown is that it reflects a more fluid and modern representation of the king and the queen consort’s affection for nature and the British countryside. I think it is always a good idea to look back at history — not just to the late Queen Elizabeth II’s coronation gown, but to those before her as well, which I did.”

The robe she is wearing was made for the late Queen’s coronation.
