\n\tBezos and Sanchez will be soon be gathering for another grand gathering, as the lead sponsors of Monday\u2019s Met Gala in New York City.<\/p>\n
\n\tPerhaps as a gesture towards the guests of honor, FLOTUS chose a pale delphinium pink silk strapless gown from Christian Dior haute couture that was designed by the luxury house\u2019s Northern Irish-born creative director Jonathan Anderson. Her evening ensemble included off-white Dior suede gloves and Dior pale delphinium pink pumps.\u00a0The namesake founder of Christian Dior was such a gardening fan that that the house was reportedly nicknamed \u201cthe House of Flowers.\u201d Delphinium is known to be one King Charles\u2019 favorite flowers. So much so, that Highgrove collaborated with the artist Florence Super to create exclusive chinaware inspired by the long-stalk blooms.<\/p>\n
\n\tQueen Camilla sported a long-sleeved hot pink Fiona Clare evening dress with a small clutch purse. Some might view the hue as \u201cMillennial Pink.\u201d Her accessory of choice was reportedly a diamond necklace that had been gifted by a former Duchess of Kent to Queen Victoria and was then passed to Queen Mary. King Charles and Donald Trump each were dressed for white tie in tails.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Culture Concierge co-founder Alexandra Messervy, who once worked in the Royal Household of the late Queen Elizabeth II, said, \u201cMuch thought does go into dressing for any engagement and particularly for overseas tours. Outfits are planned well in advance and discussed with designers, with thought given to the occasion, the other guests, and often something pertinent about the country that is being visited.\u201d<\/p>\n
Those details can be seen in color choices such as the late Princess of Wales\u2019 choice of a red and white outfit for a May 1986 visit to Japan for instance. While dress lengths and appropriate attire are always considered, other decisions are pragmatic like broad-brimmed hats that allow for faces easily seen and gloves to endure the many handshakes, Messervy said.<\/p>\n
Earlier in the day, there was a state arrival ceremony with a 21-gun cannon salute for the most senior members of the British royal family on the White House grounds. His Majesty later became only the second British monarch to address a joint session of Congress. Stateside to commemorate the 250th anniversary of American independence, King Charles said, \u201cFor all that time, our destinies have been linked.\u201d<\/p>\n
Earlier Tuesday, FLOTUS and Queen Camilla took in a little artifical intelligence, by participating in a cross-cultural event with students including a few state champions from the Presidential AI Challenge.<\/p>\n
Their Majesties were slated to spend Wednesday in New York City, where they planned to participate in a wreath-laying ceremony at the 9\/11 Memorial. Afterwards, Queen Camilla was slated to tour the Treasures Collection at the New York Public Library and to present a replacement \u201cRoo\u201d stuffed animal to round out its \u201cWinnie the Pooh\u201d collection of toys. Those historic playthings once belonged to Christopher Robin Milne, whose father A.A. Milne drew inspiration from them to write the \u201cWinnie the Pooh\u201d books.<\/p>\n
Once they return to Washington, D.C., there will be a sendoff by the Trumps at the White House Thursday, before King Charles and Queen Camilla head to Virginia for the final outing to wrap up their four-day U.S. stay.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Capping off what has been an eventful two days, King Charles III and Queen Camilla were honored with…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":48953,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[161],"tags":[205,734,741,27334],"class_list":{"0":"post-48952","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-jeff-bezos","8":"tag-amazon","9":"tag-jeff-bezos","10":"tag-lauren-sanchez","11":"tag-ralph-lauren"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@people\/116487102334309571","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/48952","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=48952"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/48952\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/48953"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=48952"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=48952"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/people\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=48952"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
