People from around the world flocked to London for King Charles' coronation on Saturday.
Among the crowds were Insider's reporters, who documented their favorite looks.

King Charles' and Queen Camilla's coronation brought royal fans out onto the streets of London on Saturday.

Braving rainy conditions, members of the public came out dressed for the royal occasion, which has not happened in the UK since the late Queen Elizabeth II was crowned in 1953.

While Charles, Camilla, and the rest of royals wore some decadent outfits for the ceremony at Westminster Abbey, Insider took to the roads and parks of London to check out some of the wildest royal-inspired street style. Take a look.

Royal revelers of all ages wore Union Jack-heavy outfits to the coronation.

From flags, to scarves, to parkas, there didn't seem to be a single item of clothing that someone couldn't add a Union Jack to.
