'Queen Elizabeth II: Her Life in Style' exhibition @ the Kings Art Gallery
Details
Come along on Sunday 6th Sept to visit a new exhibition at the Kings Art Gallery (formerly the Queens Art Gallery) on 'Queen Elizabeth II: Her Life in Style'.
About the exhibition
Discover the remarkable style of Britain’s longest-reigning monarch (70 years & 214 days) through clothing worn in all ten decades of her life - from birth to adulthood, from princess to queen, and from off-duty style to dressing for the global stage for momentous occasions in Britain’s history.
Featuring more than 300 items, many on display for the first time, this is the largest and most comprehensive exhibition of the late Queen’s fashion ever mounted.
Alongside clothing, jewellery, hats, shoes and accessories, explore never-before-seen design sketches, fabric samples and handwritten correspondence that reveal the behind-the-scenes process of dressing the most famous woman in the world and shed new light on the late Queen’s close involvement in the creation of her wardrobe.
In the year that she would have turned 100 years old.
The visit should last about 2 hours. The visit is self-guiding using the audio guides provided.
