Queen Elizabeth established herself as master of the frock coat, dress and matching hat in colors as bold as purple, orange, red and fuchsia

In a masterstroke of political know-how, and with the world's press upon her, Elizabeth curated the greatest red-carpet moment of all. "Glorious" was reputedly her own word for the gown that captivated and delighted her subjects.

Of course, there were fashion top notes for daywear, but brought in as flourishes. Looking at archival photos from her reign, we see an effortless deployment of the decades' trends, such as the nipped-in waists of the '50s; the shorter skirt lengths, sleeveless dresses and pillbox hats of the '60s; and the turbans and bold prints of the '70s.

Style also takes a great deal of management and, working with Angela Kelly, her trusted personal assistant and curator of the wardrobe, Elizabeth created a manifesto for careerwear success. Fabrics were test-driven for limited rustling and anti-crease appeal, and weighted at the hemline to prevent gusts of wind making mischief. Subtle prints were employed to prevent marks from showing, and there were even detachable underarm pads to conceal perspiration.
