Queen Elizabeth II's wardrobe was a masterclass in symbolism, tailoring and British craftsmanship. In this landmark exhibition, as well as unveiling garments spanning every decade of the late Queen's life, we are thrilled to be including works by three contemporary designers who have so successfully reinterpreted her style for the present day, demonstrating how her fashion legacy continues to be woven into the fabric of British design.

A number of standout pieces by the Queen's long-serving designers will be shown, including a striking apple-green Hartnell gown worn at a 1957 state banquet for President Eisenhower in Washington, D.C. Also on display will be the crinoline-skirted blue dress and bolero jacket chosen for Princess Margaret's wedding in 1960 - the last time a royal wedding in England featured full-length dress.
