Justine Picardie for Fashioning The Crown
24 February @ 7:00 pm – 8:00 pm
Published ahead of the centenary of Queen Elizabeth II’s birth, the beautifully illustrated book Fashioning The Crown: A Story of Power, Conflict and Couture uncovers the hidden history of the Crown and how it survived a tumultuous era and two world wars. Drawing on original research in the Royal Archives and her own experiences at Balmoral, Windsor Castle and Buckingham Palace, Justine Picardie explores the family feuds and international conflicts that challenged the Crown, and how royal fashion is wielded as a weapon.
