WOMANSENSE THE QUEEN IN ROME -some of the clothes she wore

by Jennifer Lane

DURING recent years the Queen has become a symbol of fashion in her own right and the clothes she chooses and wears have a very great influence on the fashion world.

Never has she looked more lovely than during her tour of India early this year. Again she has caused a stir with the beautiful clothes she wore when she visited Rome recently.

The Queen is never behind hand with what she wears but on the contrary has become more of a trend- setter and someone to copy.

Her clothes are never exotic, outlandish or eccentric but more than all of the impact makers, low- breakers, goze-collectors and all the rest of the weirdies we have been reading about lately, she manages to look beautiful, feminine and impeccably dressed.

Women in Hongkong and all over the world for that matter would do well to note how she achieves this. It is not merely done by having some of the best couturiers in the world to advise her and design for her. clear She has become recognised for the uncluttered gracious look that goes with simplicity of line, with soft colours, and always with the accessories carefully chosen to enhance and match the basic outfit.

Here are some of the clothes the Queen took with her to Rome.

FASHION POINT TO NOTE: The loose, simple summer coats with stand-away collars own matching dresses.

The dress is marked at the lowered waistline with a similar navy band of piping. The hat, by Claude St Cyr of Paris, is stitched white Breton, banded with navy velvat.

THE DRESS the Queen wore for a

large banquet.

It was created by Hartnell to express emblems of Italy- the dress and train are embroidered with golden oak

leaves, laurel leaves and sliver stars. The dress is of slender cul, with embroidery of silver and golden crystals, interspersed with Farlands of golden
