The Queen's Style

I have researched into The Queen's style so that when we are styling our model(s), we have a good knowledge of hair, make-up, clothing, accessories, props, etc.

Formal Attire

At formal Royal events, The Queen is (obviously) immaculately dressed, wearing A LOT of jewels (always a crown or tiara) and silk gloves. Her clothing isn't darish, usually pale colours - creams and whites, and always tasteful and respectful. The Queen appears to wear little make-up - lipstick and blusher.

Casually Formal

At slightly less formal events, The Queen will experiement with colour and fashion, stylish hats and accessories, wears jewellery - but obviously less grand - pearls, brooch, small ear rings.

Casual

(This photograph is actually Helen Mirren, from the film - "The Queen")

 

I find it hard to believe that these photographs, are in fact The Queen. She is dressed as any little old lady would be (although I'm sure the clothes are still highly expensive). In casual "off-duty" times, The Queen adopts a typical English Countryside style - Barbour jackets, headscarves, loafers, cardigans and tartan print skirts.

I think watching this film "The Queen" would be really beneficial to our group, as it will give us knowledge about the Queen's lifestyle, personality, style and mannerisms.
