A Coronation robe is a robe a Queen or King wears when being crowned. For example, Queen Elizabeth, when being crowned in 1953, wore a Coronation robe containing the floral emblems of the UK (England, Scotland, Wales and NI), Canada, Australia, New Zealand, the Union of South Africa, Pakistan and Ceylon. This is was because she was being crowned Queen of those countries. It also included a lotus flower emblem representing India, because The Queen was also being crowned as Head of the Commonwealth.
