I meant the design detail is assymetric, not the edge of the coat. I could see that the opening was central, but a brooch would probably not look good on that heavy black applique.

The Queen and Irish President Mary McAleese met in Northern Ireland on Thursday, but there was still no sign of the long-anticipated Royal visit to Dublin.

I would imagine that she wears them because she is comfortable in them and she likes them.
