Did Queen Victoria wear the George III tiara?
Janice writes: “Do you know if the tiara Emily Blunt wears [The Young Victoria] is a replica of the one … King George III gave to his wife Queen Charlotte? If so, do you know if Queen Victoria would have ever worn it?”
The tiara worn by actress Emily Blunt in the film is indeed a replica of that fringe tiara. The real Queen Victoria wore the George III tiara for the famous Winterhalter portrait (seen below).
Thanks to Andrew Cusack, who explains it beautifully.
