20 Royal Family Outfits That Were Actually Trying To Send A Message
It’s safe to say that the royal family leaves nothing to chance or whim. Everything about them is considered, even down to their wardrobes. But through their methodical approach to dressing, members of the monarchy can conceal messages within their outfits. Here we take a look at 20 occasions when the royals let their clothes do all the talking.
20. The Queen, Kate Middleton And Meghan Markle’s Brown Moment
In January 2020 three of the royal’s most prominent ladies were spotted stepping out in muted tones of brown and beige. Yes, Meghan wore the understated hues on a visit to Canada House in London with Harry. Meanwhile, Kate wrapped up in a stylish camel coat while launching her new early childhood project.
Unity Through Clothes
However, it was the Queen – normally known for bright colors – who caused the biggest stir when she wore a brown coat and hat combo to church on January 12. With that in mind, the ladies’ brown moment was viewed as a sign of their unity. Interestingly, it came at a difficult time for the family, just after the Sussexes announced they were stepping back from royal life.
19. The Queen In Powder Blue At The 2020 Commonwealth Service
Clearly, the royals are no strangers to sending messages through their choice of clothes or, more specifically, through colors. So, when Queen Elizabeth attended the annual Commonwealth Day Service in March 2020 in a beautiful powder blue suit, fashion commentators were eager to get to the bottom of its meaning.
The Significance Of Blue
And it turns out that powder blue represents understanding, healing and freedom. As a result, it was viewed as a sign of the monarchy’s openness as it moves forward with the Commonwealth. Speaking at the service, the Queen described the collection of 54 countries, which represent 2.4 billion people, as a “worldwide family” and spoke of their “common future.”
