Fashioning a Reign
90 Years of Style from The Queen's Wardrobe
- This event is in the past
Daily (Saturday 17 Sept 2016 - Sunday 8 Jan 2017)
This exhibition marks the 90th Birthday of Her Majesty The Queen through a display of fashionable dress, spanning the period from The Queen’s childhood in the 1930s to the present day.
Examples of the work of leading British couturiers who have been appointed as dressmakers to The Queen illustrate Her Majesty’s support for British fashion and reveal the specialist techniques of designers and milliners. At Windsor Castle magnificent evening gowns and elegant day ensembles worn at official events will be contrasted with fancy-dress costumes worn by the young Princess Elizabeth for wartime family pantomimes at the Castle.
