Her hair has come a long way from the shabby shaggy dog like hair she had back in the day.

Her hair is styled for the evening.
It looks better than her daytime hairstyle which she parts in the middle.
During the daytime event she wore the same purple plaid/tartan suit from a week ago.
IMO, this is one of best photos with her wearing her personal tiara.
I do wish the Queen will lend her another tiara so she stops wearing her personal tiara to official engagements.
She always wears her personal tiara to this event.

If The Queen's Diamonds by Hugh Reborts is to be believed, the Queen has provided Camilla with access to three tiaras: The Delhi Durbar (that Camilla has publicly worn once in 2005), the Teck tiara (never worn in public) and the Greville Boucheron tiara (Camilla's "signature" tiara).

Since she married Charles, I have only seen pictures of Camilla in this tiara once before, which was the Diplomatic Reception (2005?). Have you seen other pictures, and if so, it would be great if you can share them with me.

What I love about Camilla is that she allow the media to properly photograph her during informal and formal engagements. She loves the camera. |
Of the little one can know of Camilla from afar, I suspect she is far from " loves the camera". I think she just accepts that she will be photographed, and when she is aware of the presence of a camera, she would prefer to be photographed smiling, than not.

It does look like the dress from the Dutch inauguration, I think she has worn it once since for a State Banquet at BP.

In 2007 she wore the same dress & tiara to the Diplomatic Reception. The 2005 & 2007 photos look almost identical except for a few bangs/fringe.
This one is from 2005.

Yes, it;s that dress with the unfortunate transition point between the two colors is right at the breast. That really draws the eye to where some of us wish she had better underpinnings.

I like the scarf. It adds a little something extra to the look.

Thank you very much for the tip, jacknch I searched their website and couldn't find this one, but the scarfs there do indeed have similarities with Camilla's. Just tweeted Liberty to check if it's theirs.

An 11 on the gorgeous scale- she hit it out of the park!
EDIT- I am referring to what she wore to the service. The above outfit needs to be put back in the closet....
I don't like the outfit at all!
