Time changes fashions and what is interpreted as the norm, I think. In 1911, the Prince of Wales was only just 17 but was given a starring role, replete with Garter robes and paying homage to the King. Princess Mary was 14, yet the only concession to her age was that her dress was somewhat shorter. Prince Albert was older than her at 15, yet he wore his naval uniform.
