The most famous woman in the world isn’t Taylor Swift, a TikTok star or even a Kardashian. She’s a 5’3” nonagenarian unlikely to have heard of any of the above, and this week, she’s celebrating a very important milestone: 70 years on the throne. In that time, Queen Elizabeth II has used the power of personal style to speak clearly and powerfully to her subjects, often without saying a word.
“The queen is one of the most photographed people in the world. Even if we rarely hear what she has to say, we all know her image,” says Matthew Storey, collections curator at Historic Royal Palaces. “And so what she communicates with her clothes is incredibly important and powerful.”
She’s followed the same style formula since the ’60s: a boxy dress and coat in a punchy hue, a coordinating hat, gloves, a ladylike handbag, a sturdy heel. It’s simple but unforgettable thanks to her fearless way with colour. Who could forget the lime-green suit she wore for Trooping the Colour in 2016 or her countless Crayola-bright Royal Ascot looks?
