The longest-lived monarch of the British Crown turns 94 today. Here is the evolution of the queen who has become an icon

This year for the Coronavirus emergency, the celebrations for Queen Elizabeth&#39;s birthday will not be big: no to the 94 cannon shots fired from the Green Park garden and also the official celebrations with the famous &quot; Trooping the colou r&quot; parade second Saturday of June will be canceled.

Crowned at the age of 25, Lilibeth is not only one of the most beloved rulers of the British Crown, but also an icon of style and elegance. The label of the royal family, it is known, provides for a very rigid protocol which, however, has never prevented the queen from being original and elegant.

It is famous for its colorful clothes, of all shades of the Pantone scale. The choice to wear suits in very bright shades is due to the fact that the queen must always be recognizable in the crowd. This way more can be easily controlled even by security to intervene in case of danger.

If there is one thing that the sovereign never changes it is the purse. Despite fashions and trends, she has been wearing the same bag for more than fifty years: a Launer London handbag. The brand received the &quot;Royal Warrant&quot; in 1968, the title guaranteeing collaboration with the Queen. Furthermore, Launer London, on the occasion of the 94 years of the sovereign, has decided to create a capsule collection dedicated to her. Her historic handbag is not just an accessory to show off. In fact, it is used by the Queen to send coded messages: if it rests on the ground it means that it wants to be saved from an unwelcome conversation, if it rests on the table it means that the event must end within five minutes.

Since 1989 she has always worn the same shade of nail polish: Essie Ballet Slippers. It is a nuance of soft pink and slightly shiny: suitable for all occasions.

Still a princess, Elisabeth marries Prince Philip. Her dress is majestic, entirely sewn in Scottish fabric, embellished with ten thousand crystal beads from the United States. The embroideries, however, come from Italy and are a reproduction of Botticelli&#39;s La Primavera , wanted by Elizabeth to symbolize the rebirth after the war.

When it comes to Queen Elisabeth we cannot fail to mention her iconic hats. It seems he has collected about five thousand. The size of the hat must be such as to protect the sovereign, but at the same time must allow her to move freely. For each occasion there is a different model and numerous stylists have designed the real headdresses, among all the British designer Philip Treacy.

Happy Birthday Queen Elizabeth II
