I am delighted that the BADA Friends will be joining up with the Kensington & Chelsea Women’s Club for an evening reception at the King’s Gallery. To celebrate the centenary of the birth of HM Queen Elizabeth II, the Royal Collection Trust has organised at the King's Gallery the most comprehensive display of her fashion ever assembled. Two hundred items of the late Queen's clothing from her childhood through her decades' long reign will be on exhibit.
Preceded by a lecture, our private visit will allow you to see - without crowds - the coordinated ensembles designed to help eager onlookers spot Her Majesty on walkabouts. Special highlights will be jewellery, her 1947 Hartnell Wedding Dress, and one of her earliest outfits worn to the 1934 wedding of the Duke of Kent.
Curator Caroline de Guitaut explains the exhibit will "tell the story of a lifetime of thoughtful style choices - from HM's hands-on-role and understanding of the soft power behind her clothing to the exceptional craftsmanship behind each garment".
