Princess Anne joined King Charles at a state banquet in Nigeria, making a notable fashion statement with a vintage coat. The 75-year-old royal donned a longline cream coat, originally worn 57 years ago, demonstrating her commitment to sustainable fashion. This coat, featuring ribbed material and cut-out sleeves, was first seen at the world premiere of "Run Wild, Run Free" in London in 1969, when she was just 15 years old. Anne's choice to recycle this garment highlights her dedication to eco-friendly fashion practices.

At the recent banquet, Princess Anne accessorized her outfit with an array of heirloom jewels. Notably, she wore the Meander Tiara, also known as the Greek Key Tiara, which has a rich history. This tiara originally belonged to Prince Philip's mother, Princess Alice of Battenberg, who received it as a wedding gift in 1903. Anne also adorned herself with Queen Mary's City of London Choker and the King Charles Royal Family Order. Meanwhile, other royals at the event, including Queen Camilla and the Princess of Wales, showcased their own stunning tiaras, adding a touch of regal elegance to the occasion.
