There are only a few of HM's outfits, she has not worn again yet but many of them she has worn over and over.

It would be good to know who are the designers of Queen's clothes.

This sounds odd, but I think HM looks better in the darker shades of the pale colours. A deep purple rather than a pastel lilace, for example.

But I wonder if because she has worn such colours for so long, people expect it of "the old lady". I read an article once where many women over 60 wear pastels to brighten up their faces (ie look younger) but that really does not work for everyone---especially HM QEII.

She is a strong woman, she should dress like it.

Will you please tell me who designs The Queen's dresses and hats? Does she ever use American or lesser known designers for her wardrobe?
The Queen always wears clothes by British designers. She is currently wearing clothes by Stewart Parvin, Peter Erione and Karl Ludwig Rehse, who are all based in London. Her hats are designed by Philip Somerville and Marie O'Regan. She also wears outfits designed by her in-house team. The Queen talks her ideas through with her Personal Assistant, Miss Angela Kelly, then sketches of the designs are produced which are shown to Her Majesty along with samples of material for her to choose from. Clothes are then made up by The Queen's Dressmakers.

Thank you, Janet! I must say I think the Queen is looking better these days than she has for a long time, in her day outfits anyway. Not too sure about her evening wear, though - some of it has been looking very uninspired.

Karl Ludwig Rehse is originally from Essen, Germany although like Karl Lagerfeld he seems to make his home outside his native Germany.
