Buckingham Palace said Saturday, that Britain’s King Charles will wear velvet dresses of scarlet and purple silk at his coronation ceremony on May 6, clothes worn by his grandfather, King George VI, during his coronation in 1937.<\/p>\n

Charles is scheduled to be formally crowned king at London’s Westminster Abbey next week in a ceremony attended by heads of state and foreign dignitaries, as he succeeds his mother, Queen Elizabeth, who died in September, reports Al-Rai daily quoting Reuters.<\/p>\n

Charles and his wife Camilla will wear two sets of dresses at the coronation ceremony, a scarlet formal dress on arrival and a purple royal dress on departure, all of which are either previously preserved or made by the 334-year-old London knitwear company, Eddy & Ravenscroft.<\/p>\n

Camilla’s formal dresses were originally made for the late Queen Elizabeth.<\/p>\n

Pictures released by the palace showed members of the Royal School of Needlework doing work on a several-foot-long crimson velvet gown with gold lace trim that was set to be worn by Charles.<\/p>\n

Another picture showed her dress embroidered with her own symbol.<\/p>\n

The palace continues to reveal details of the coronation ceremony, which will be smaller in size than Elizabeth’s coronation, but will still be full of pomp and grandeur, reflecting traditions dating back a thousand years.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
