Abstract:
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. 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. This book celebrates the fashion evolution of Elizabeth II in her unprecedented Platinum Jubilee year. Print run 150,000.
