Masako doesn't seem to be present in the first set of photos.
ReplyDeleteshe hasnt appear in the actual ceremony for over a decade .. I like this in all but they look to perfect and the young ones dress like its 1940
DeleteBut they are very well educated and modern people :)
DeleteCP Masako travelled to the palace in full court dress, including her tiara, by limousine accompanied by the Crown Prince and their daughter. She was there but not visible at the ceremony at which the first pictures where made.
DeleteCrown princess is never in this line front but she is there in event. Must be part of their courtesy. I do not know why, maybe we have here someone who could explain?
DeleteI remember it had to do with her depression she used to attend in the 90s and she was the first lady in line after the empress as crown princess. She does attend in court dress with tiara at the event but the main ceremony she doesnt participate in.. Its little bizarre how this happen. its like dressing to a wedding meet the bride privately and dont attend the actual wedding ceremony itself.
