SynopsisFrom the glittering gowns of her youth to the vibrant block colours she has chosen in recent years, Queen Elizabeth II has always understood the power of fashion, carefully crafting a signature style for which she is globally renowned. Bethan Holt uncovers the stories behind the Queen's most memorable outfits, from childhood to today, and speaks to the designers who create the iconic pieces that make up a look which is, unmistakably, Her Majesty's own. Book jacket., The past 70 years have seen a 25-year-old princess transform into a nonagenarian monarch who is respected and loved the world over. A woman whose views are never heard, Queen Elizabeth II has deployed fashion as a means to communicate and signal her position to the crowds who gather to see her in public and the millions who watch her television broadcasts: "I must be seen to be believed," she has said. The Queen's evolving attitude to dress reflects a visual landscape that began as genteel reportage in mostly black and white and has over the years evolved into today's technicolor 24/7 news cycle, flashed around the globe in seconds and driven by social media. Incredibly, in her 70th year as monarch, the Queen feels as relevant as ever before-and she is, undoubtedly, a style icon. The Queen: 70 Years of Majestic Style celebrates the fashion evolution of Elizabeth II in her unprecedented Platinum Jubilee year., The past 70 years have seen a 25-year-old Princess transform into a nonagenarian monarch who was respected and loved the world over.
