The eyes of the world

In 2008, Her Majesty was invited to Slovenia and Slovakia. I was told there was a good chance of snow. Immediately I felt inspired: it was my first chance to design a winter wonderland wardrobe for The Queen. Below: In 2010 The Queen was to visit the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque in Abu Dhabi. I remembered that in the material stockroom at Buckingham Palace there was some very old golden material that had been presented to The Queen when she was still a princess. I knew it would be perfect. In keeping with the required dress code, The Queen wore socks in the mosque.
