Queen Elizabeth’s style choices were faultless, says British Vogue’s deputy editor and fashion features director Sarah Harris.
Before clothes were made, the Queen approved every sketch and fabric sample. She had a keen interest in fabrics, in particular a fondness for Singaporean silk. It’s understood that during visits to Singapore, local tradespeople would bring their wares to the airport for her arrival. The Queen browsed and made her selection and purchases were collected on the return home. Said to be incredibly decisive, Her Majesty rarely changed her mind about an outfit that she previously agreed to.
“Her Majesty [was] always thrifty and [liked] her clothes to be adapted and recycled as much as possible,” wrote Kelly. “Typically, the lifespan of an outfit [could] be up to around 25 years.” After two or three public appearances, designs were altered or they became relegated to off-duty wear.
