King Charles III's coronation - the best and worst dressed guests

While all eyes were firmly on Charles III and Camilla at the coronation of Britian's new king and queen, it's little surprise that some of the guests at the royal event of the year drew some attention. Among more than 2,200 invitees, Euronews Culture has picked a few of the best dressed - and some that very much missed the mark...

Many coronation viewers probably didn’t realise Conservative MP Penny Mordaunt would even play a role, but she was one of the most commented on aspects of the whole affair - and not least for her impressive outfit. 

In her role as Lord President of the Council, she was the first ever woman responsible for carrying out the ancient custom of bestowing King Charles with the 'Jewelled Sword of Offering'. Mordaunt wore a dress and cape designed by Safiyaa and a chunky headband from Jane Taylor, all embroidered by Hand and Lock with the golden fern motif of the Privy Council.

Kate, Princess of Wales and her eight-year-old Princess Charlotte of Wales both wore beautifully embroidered Alexander McQueen outfits, featuring rose, thistle, daffodil and shamrock motifs, emblems signifying the four nations of the United Kingdom. Both also wore headpieces - rather than tiaras, paying heed to Charles’ wishes - crafted by milliner Jess Collett in conjunction with Alexander McQueen’s creative director Sarah Burton.

The late Queen Elizabeth II’s second cousin Lady Helen Taylor wowed in a Dior ensemble, inspired by the French fashion house’s famed ‘new look’.

Lady Sarah Chatto, the only daughter of the late Princess Margaret and the cousin of King Charles III, wore an elegant cream ensemble and accessorised with a triple strand pearl necklace - a royal signature.
