The Esrova Court 1477 Share Posted May 30, 2022 Published by the Mistress of the Wardrobe 8th of Tov ag Yermey, 427 E.S. Coronation Regalia Dearest Readers, Moda i ve Kort has served dutifully under the prior rule of Koenas Emma, and shall continue to provide insight on Courtly fashion. Since the rule of Koenas Annika and her efforts to encourage the resurgence of Ruskan wear, the devoted Mistress of the Wardrobe is obliged to continue her service under the household of Koenas Amadea. To build upon legacies and provide regulation of fashion standards is a great honor. Without further ado, we present Moda i ve Kort: Coronation Regalia Since the establishment of the Dual Kingdom, coronation garb has been inconsistent as well as left in the past. Only once did someone establish an official dress for a Queen to wear during her coronation yet since then, there has been no modern iteration of such clothing. Since we have come so far without a proper refurbishing to the coronation attire that the mistress of the robes sought it fit to finally modernize and set official standards for the coronation regalia of the King and Queen of Haenseti-Ruska. ───── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───── Koeng ───── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───── Dress Burgundian Coat A red, burgundian silk coat, lined at the edges with delicate aurelian adornment.

In Haeseni Regalia, it is given during the Investiture of the Royal Offices and placed under the coronation mantle. It symbolizes the consent of the people to the reign of the sovereign. *Modernized and Restored by the Mistress of the Robes Ve Chernit Cloak Contrasting the red silken coat, the black cloak that drapes from under the Coronation Mantle on the sovereign's left shoulder represents the journey of mind, body, and spirit one must take to become the King of Haenseti-Ruska.
