Royal Wedding

I know the Royal Wedding happened a few weeks ago, but yesterday I was looking at a website about some news of the Royal Wedding and I read this curiosity that I didn’t know before I had read it. It is about the Victorian Era, in which the bride should wear “something old, something new, something blue and something borrowed.” And of course, the bride, Kate followed this protocol.

•         The Something Old that Kate wore was the sob reposition of rend in her dress, techniques called Carrickmacross. The something old is used to represent the continuity of family values and traditions.

•          The Something New which Kate used was the pair of diamond earrings that she got from her parents, Carole and Michel Middleton. The pair of earrings was designed by Robinson Pelham. The Something New represents hope for the new life, the new couple.

•      The Something Borrowed was the tiara-halo from the Queen Elizabeth II, who got the same tiara from her mother when she was 18 years old. The something borrowed must be has to be from someone who have or had a happy marriage, so it can transmit good energies from their marriage to the new couple. This object also shows the importance of loved people on the day of her marriage.

•       The Something Blue was the little blue applications on the skirt of Kate’s dress. The something blue has two meanings. First that the color represents love and fidelity and the second meaning is that supposedly the color blue serves to move away the jealousy.
