A modern monarch. King Charles III broke tradition with his coronation outfit on Saturday, May 6. 

King Charles III put a modern sartorial spin on his coronation look.While much of the British monarch's coronation on Saturday inside Westminster Abbey complied with long-held tradition and protocol, Queen Elizabeth's firstborn son took some liberties with his wardrobe for the occasion — and they did not go unnoticed. Notably, the 74-year-old sovereign made the look his own by ditching the standout silk stockings and breeches worn by kings of the past, including his grandfather, King George VI. However, Charles' predecessors still appeared to influence his overall ensemble as he entered Westminster Abbey for the ceremony, sporting a crimson coronation tunic and cream overskirt reportedly inspired by those similarly worn by George V and George VI at their own coronations, according to .
