For the events to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the end of World War II, which took place on July 10, 2005, The Queen, like both Her daughters-in-law, wore two outfits and therefor two hats. The first hat She wore was to attend the service at Westminster Abbey and a luncheon for war veterans at Buckingham Palace.

After the luncheon, HM changed into another outfit and hat for the parade and the balcony appearance.

who designed the Queen's hats?
does she get all her hats from one designer? or she buy whichever she likes(doubt if she has that time), or some designer would send her their hats as gifts?
 
ok, i did a search and found this on royal insight mag
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.

I love the red dress she wore to the variety show too. I thought it was daring and suited her well. You can be old and look great.
 
Many of her outfits hit just the right note. She never seems to put the wrong foot forward in terms of her dress and the way she carries herself, etc. :) I wonder how much is budgeted for her wardrobe?
 
I think her outfits are age appropriate. They might not always be something I would wear, but they suit her position and age.
 
She looks great in red but if I recall something on color charts Queen Elizabeth is considered a winter tone, right? So she looks her best in blues and other blue shade variations and white and silver ice colors.

I believe Queen Sofia of Spain is an autum chart so she looks her best in reds, ambers and rust-like colors.
 
Queen Elizabeth does look good, her outfits are very well suited to her age.

Toledo, I think you're right, and most of the Queen's outfits that stand out in my mind have been blueish tones. She wore turquoise for her Christmas speech and looked lovely.
 
I'm not a great fun of her white dresses. I prefer colour. I think Her Majesty looks great in red, but not in the evening.

I would think summer rather than winter. Some of the really strong colours are a bit much for her.

I agree. color is much better for her while unfortunately the white dresses often make her figure look dumpy. though that may also have to do with the cut.

I also think it's the cut. For some reason her white dresses often have a worse cut than the others.
