Dieu et mon droit | Her Majesty the Queen

Today, june 2, 2012, the UK and 15 other Commonwealth realms celebrate The Queen’s Diamond Jubilee, marking 60 years of her glorious pastel-clad, Corgi-filled reign.

Since 1953, Elizabeth has ruled with unshakable British resolve, riding horses through assasination attempts, talking down bedroom intruders, and steering the world through troubled times without ever mismatching her handbag and shoes.

Whether she’s just hanging with her Corgis, wearing brogues in Balmoral, or parading in pearls, the Queen remains an icon of fashion and fortitude. So on this very special occasion, we pay tribute to her most memorable ensembles. But what do you get the woman who received 2,500 wedding presents and an elephant from the President of Cameroon? Scroll through for our very own Royal Jubilee offerings.
