Regalia is a term used to describe the distinctive clothing, decorations, and other items that are worn or carried by royalty or other high-ranking individuals, and are include crowns, scepters, robes, insignia of rank or office, and various other items, and is often seen as a symbol of power and authority. In many cultures around the world regalia has been used for centuries to signify status and prestige. In some cases it has also been used as a way to differentiate between different classes in society. Today regalia is still widely used in many countries including Britain where it is worn during coronations and other important ceremonies such as investitures and are be found in traditional ceremonies such as weddings where brides may wear a crown or veil to signify their new status within the family unit. Regalia continues to be an important part of many cultures around the world today with its symbolism being just as relevant now as it was centuries ago.
