Royal Family turn out in force for celebratory Buckingham Palace reception

Guests at the glitzy reception included representatives of the Armed Forces, the arts, media, fashion, business, government, finance, healthcare, faith organisations and charities. The Queen Consort was pictured greeting attendees including model, presenter and designer Alexa Chung, who donned a beaded gold dress and black jacket for the occasion. Camilla opted for a floor-length black velvet jacket with ornate embroidered details, teamed with jewellery including a thick gold band around her neck. 

Princess Anne, King Charles’s sister, was elegant in a white jacket, spotty printed skirt and matching neck tie, while the King and his youngest brother, Prince Edward, donned suits and colourful ties.
