Since it has been seventy years since the last time a monarch was buried in the United Kingdom, the state announced that the dress code was strictly to be followed. Although it was the Queen that introduced the country to contemporary lifestyles and new beginnings, she still had a taste for traditional practices that was reflected in following dress codes.</p><div><br/></div><p>At the funeral, women wore knee-length dresses or coats, black hats, and veils. Men are dressed in morning coats if not in military uniform. Despite the strict protocol, attendees were allowed to showcase their individuality through jewelry.
