Sophie Wessex wore wedding dress & tiara different from other royals: 'It was a surprise'

Sophie’s, on the other hand, was designed for her using pieces of a previous royal jewel, Eddie LeVian, CEO of jeweller Le Vian, explained.

He told Express.co.uk: “While Princess Diana wore a tiara that came from the Spencer family and the Duchess of York Sarah Ferguson wore a completely new tiara commissioned by the Queen, the tiara Sophie Countess of Wessex wore was a new tiara made up from antique pieces.

“On her wedding day, it came as a surprise to onlookers and jewellery lovers because the tiara had never been seen before.”

The expert added the design was believed to be made up of pieces of Queen Victoria’s Regal Circlet.
