The Order of the Garter, the highest order in
England, was founded by Edward III in 1348. Its motto,
Honi soit qui mal y pense (Shame to him who thinks evil
of it) supposedly derives from an incident involving a
garter dropped on a dance floor by the Countess of
Salisbury while dancing with the King.
