I love the ladies how they have gloves all colours matching their clothing, I imagine there are custom made, because where you can find all this leather gloves from all colours?

Gloves are an interesting part of the royal wardrobe, especially white ones which are seldom seen elsewhere nowadays.

Infomation on other countries Royal use of white gloves would be great.

I've noticed that when Queen Elizabeth is greeting the public or normal citizens, she wears her gloves the entire time. However, when meeting other royals or world leaders, she does not wear gloves.

I dont think it has anything to do with greeting normal people or royals. On ays away or when she has to meet a lot iof people, the Queen tends to keep her gloves on, when it is smaller groups, she does not.
