A rainbow of royal fashion celebrating Queen Elizabeth II's ten decades of colour-blocked style

This beautiful book takes a photographic journey through Queen Elizabeth II's ten decades of colour-blocked style. The photographs, which span the colours of the rainbow and a century of style, are gloriously accessorised with captions and commentary by journalist and broadcaster Sali Hughes.

From the dusky pinks the Queen wore in girlhood all the way through to #NeonAt90, by way of that hat she wore on the announcement of Brexit, and not forgetting her trusty Launer handbag ever at her side, this must-have collection celebrates the iconic fashion statements of our late, longest-reigning and most vibrant monarch.

Reviews for Our Rainbow Queen: A Celebration of Our Beloved and Longest-Reigning Monarch

It's a riot of colour and deconstructs ten decades of impactful and, at times, political dressing. Above all it proves that HRH serves some strong looks for which she deserves our respect...
