NEWS… BUT NOT AS YOU KNOW IT
The Crown’s Imelda Staunton honoured the late Queen Elizabeth II at the world premiere for the forthcoming fifth season by wearing her favourite jewellery, pearls.
The actress, who portrays the monarch in the new series, taking over the reins from Olivia Colman, stepped onto the red carpet at the Theatre Royal Drury Lane wearing a pair of earrings and a ring that featured the glistening gemstone.
Dressed in a custom Huntsman Savile Row smart black tailored suit with an uneven black tie, Staunton accessorised her suave look with TASAKI jewellery, the Japanese designer famous for its pearls.
She opted for a pair of earrings and a ring from the Balance Neo Diamonds Pave collection, featuring Akoya pearls and diamonds. The accessories are a modern take and a nod to the Queen’s most admired jewel.
