King Philippa celebrated her 56th birthday this week, and to our disappointment, not a single photo of the couple/hot look of the woman was registered.
The closest public event to the celebrations was yesterday (Monday) when the King and Queen hosted an official diplomatic reception at the Zarzuela Palace in Madrid.
He is in the king's clothes (the new, the old, it doesn't matter what he looks amazing) and she is in a tiring navy blue tufted dress that she has already worn before.
Hope there is insurance.

The dress in question is a personal design of the king and queen's seamstress with a built-in waist belt that she tied with a bow tie and round buttons at the top.
The dress was decorated with luxurious jewels from the royal collection - a gold chain studded with diamonds and at the end a pearl and luxurious sapphires.
The necklace also has a matching bracelet set entirely with oval sapphires and here comes the incident.

When she went to shake hands with one of the guests, the bracelet fell from her hand on the floor.
Letty immediately bent over to the mountains (lucky they didn't transfer Dyson there) and sweet Philippa helped her get dressed.
Really hope there is insurance that she didn't get some stone flying from the fall, huh?

So why is a dress cursed?
In 2022, the Queen wore the same dress for another official event (it is not clear why by the way, she has to go to the archives), the military Easter, when she lost another piece of jewelry - a gray pearl brooch decorated with diamonds that she inherited from Queen Victoria Ohania.
The incident was recorded there as well and the Queen went on about business as usual, but if that's not a message from the universe telling you that this dress has to go sweet - we don't know what is.
Time to move the dress to the archives baby.
