The Napoleonic parures are still popular

In almost every royal family there are parures made like the big garnitures of the first French Empire. Royal jewels were made more or less in this style from 1800 till around 1900. On state occasions they are often worn because they are so impressive and splendid. And in a way they are very classical.

This is sure: they did glorify the royal ladies then and they still do!
