On Her Majesty's 95th birthday, @BethanHolt looks back on her Royal Highness' fashion over the years and her style that has remained largely unchanged over 6 decades

🧵👇

It was in the early Sixties that the Queen first landed on the fashion formula which has made her the global style icon she is today:

🧥 Bright, boxy coat
👒 Matching hat
👡 Low-heeled shoes
🧤 Gloves
💎 Brooch
👜 Top-handle handbag Image
👗 In her steadfast dedication to this singular way of dressing, the Queen has not only made herself into a figure who would be recognisable to millions from a mile off...

She’s probably made her job easier - with little room for manoeuvre, there’s little room for error Image

🎂 1st Birthday

The Queen will spend the day at Windsor as she did on her 1st birthday.
