Royal Family Fashion Faux Pas That Were Recorded on Camera
When Camilla Wore the Same Color as the Queen
Although Camilla Parker-Bowles now holds the title of queen herself, there was a time when she admired the late Queen Elizabeth II as the most senior member of the Royal Family. However, Camilla once found herself in the spotlight for all the wrong reasons. In 2019, she made a major fashion misstep by showing up to the same event wearing the exact same color as the Queen. Both women looked stunning in their rich purple outfits and hats, but the Queen wasn’t pleased
The British press quickly seized the moment, labeling the awkward incident as “Purplegate.” Camilla faced harsh criticism, and it’s no surprise she never repeated the mistake. Royal fashion rules are strict, and matching the Queen’s attire is considered a breach of protocol. Can you imagine the pressure of attending events under such scrutiny? This incident highlights the delicate balance of royal etiquette and the challenges of navigating public expectations.
