For his coronation, the King will don the same thick, golden robes that his ancestors wore as priests. In the midst of Westminster Abbey's coronation theatre during the religious service, Charles will don layer upon layer of magnificent Coronation garments that are modelled after priestly clothing. The gold vestments were also worn by his mother Elizabeth II, grandpa George VI, and great-grandfather George V during their coronations.
