Queen Camilla Wears a Quietly Symbolic Coat With Necklace That Promotes “Wellness” Amid Pneumonia Battle

King Charles and Queen Camilla said farewell to the Qatari royals on Wednesday, Dec. 4, and The Queen made a meaningful—and ultra chic—fashion statement in the process.

The Amir of Qatar and his wife, Sheika Jawaher, departed London on Wednesday, and like Princess Kate did on Tuesday, Queen Camilla used her wardrobe to subtly honor the Middle Eastern country. Her Majesty sported an elegant purple cape coat as she waved goodbye to the royal couple, pairing it with black leather gloves and tall black suede boots.

However, the eggplant hue of her outerwear wasn’t just a pretty shade; Qatar’s flag features maroon and white colors, and per World Atlas, purple was originally proposed for its flag because of the long history of purple dye production in the country.

Camilla also used her jewelry to pay tribute to Qatar, choosing a piece that held great sentimental meaning for the farewell. The Queen wore a three-strand pearl necklace featuring an amethyst clasp, with both the pearls and the glittering purple stone holding significance.
