Break my fingers, The Queen of England has passed away for more than a month, but the royal family is already in chaos .
There are those who secretly fight for the throne, those who lie down and run away to enjoy themselves, and those who are more powerful than their sisters-in-law...
The most unlucky thing is the temporary successor Charles III, who was thrown away by the British How many rotten eggs .
The current battle situation, Qianqian feels that it is Kate who has a good set of and .
husband Prince William was named Prince of Wales , eldest son Prince George acquiesced to inherit his father's title, daughter Princess Charlotte , recently also rumored to be named Duke of Edinburgh .
Don't underestimate Charlotte's title, this is the first duchess of 's core royal family , a potential candidate for the future battle of succession (too queenly, the future is boundless) .
Seeing this, I just want to sigh "Princess Kate, your luck is yet to come" !
After all, the "three kids in Cambridge" (the eldest son George , the second daughter Charlotte, and the youngest son Louis) is Kate 's biggest confidence in winning.
It’s no wonder that Kate was able to firmly wear the British royal family The most significant lover’s knot crown when welcoming the South African president.
Even the number of hats is on the rise, and the various styles are almost on the verge of a grand slam.
PS. Kate often imitates her mother-in-law Princess Diana 's outfits , and even the hats have to be reproduced from the original version. Is it possible to transform into Diana Second, avenge her mother-in-law in the royal family? (Shuangwen speculates, it’s not true)
Thinking about it this way, hats seem to have an irreplaceable display function for the British royal family.
Especially the recently deceased queen Elizabeth II , except for the crown is a hat on her head, she seems to have never exposed the top of her head in public. Until
passed away at the age of 96, the queen had displayed more than 5000 hats in various shapes and colors on major occasions.
Yang originally thought that hats were only made for wearing, but after careful study, he discovered that has more indescribable B-sides in the hat culture of the royal family.
For the queen, the hat is a symbol of freedom for her to live for herself; for other members of the royal family, the width and size of the hat fully reflect the superiority and game of 's class status.
The Queen's 5,000 hats
The last representative of Britain's "respectable society"
The queen's hat taste is the topic most talked about by fashion critics.
Because compared to the old-fashioned and solemn styles of clothing, bags, and shoe accessories, the design of the Queen's hat is bolder and more fashionable and ingenious .
She doesn't have to follow the trend when she dresses, but she is not conservative at all when it comes to hats .
After all, the queen's clothes are more often a kind of cryptic diplomatic rhetoric.It must meet the requirements of a solid and safe look and feel, and it must not be disrespectful, let alone offend.
In the wardrobe enclosed by the image of the monarch, there is only a square hooded area on the top of the head, which allows her to show her personal taste.
She likes bright colors and light decorations on hatsIt can make her face more lively and more dynamic.
So in the free world of the hat universe, the queen and her six loyal hatters have created countless classic styles.
Each hat is mixed with the queen's own fashion ideas, more or less infiltrated with her own free will.
Therefore, after the Silver Jubilee, the Queen wore her own ingenious hats, and made it to various best-dressed women's lists several times.
Among the countless hat styles, the most famous one is the "the Boater Hat" series , which evolved from men's sailor hats.
On important occasions, the queen will keep the basic design of flat top and flat brim to maintain the external solemnity and elegance.
When encountering more open scenes such as People's Day and Family Day, the Queen will arrange countless surprises on the small top of the hat.
Feathers, bows, velvet flowers, classical fashion three musketeers .
What’s more unique is European handmade decoration .
With the changes of the four seasons and the main color system, the flowers of the season are embroidered on the Boater Hat, conveying the Queen's expression of vitality.
Every fine adjustment of the hat decoration is the overall control of the queen after careful consideration.
Including when going out on a field tour, will choose 's softer color system and , which symbolizes people's livelihood, to replace other bright and eye-catching hats, making the whole more peaceful and peaceful.
In addition to the more formal hats like the Boater Hat, in private, the queen would prefer feather hair accessories like "the fascinator hat" . The reason why
sheep is called a fascinator hat is a feather hair accessory, because it is different from traditional hats. There is no cap base on the head, and it is fixed by the keel of the hairpin. payment. When
wears silk or chiffon , the queen will prepare a fascinator hat early to match, so that ’s luxurious fabrics and feathers can neutralize , making it more feminine and graceful.
Even the British folklore says that the day when the Queen of chooses a fascinator hat is a day of relaxation and joy .
But the queen also tried a non-feather fascinator hat when she was young.
It is obvious that the texture of the yellow flannelette is not outstanding, so this hat also lost the chance of a second appearance.
So far, 's feather design fascinator hat has become the queen's favorite hat in the later period.
It's a pity that the queen's good taste has not been passed on to other royal blood.
Eugenie The fascinator hat that and Princess Beatrice wore on the day of Prince William's wedding is really difficult to describe, making people puzzled. In addition to the Boater Hat and fascinator hat,
"the cocktail hat" is also the queen's favorite hat in daily life.
cocktail hat is a small, brimless hat with a bottom usually made of straw, fabric or felt.
The decorative effect is much greater than the practical effect , of course, this is also the unified feature of the royal hat.
Compared with other more everyday hats, the cocktail hat is more dramatic than .
It is usually worn on the top of the head or on the side, and does not completely cover the entire head; and it will use large feathers or eye-catching bows to achieve dramatic artistic display. When
Queen was young, the cocktail hat had a very high appearance rate. She wore it when she gave birth to Princess Anne and Prince Charles .
Later queens seldom choose such exaggerated hat shapes. Even if they occasionally wear them a few times, the design tends to be more stable and restrained.
Turn down the drama, master serious aesthetics.
It was the granddaughter-in-law Princess Kate who picked up the queen's old love.
always welds the cocktail hat on the top of the head for big occasions. Fortunately, Kate is also a follower of ’s simple and stylish , so the overall wearing effect is not too exaggerated.
On the other hand, the two princesses next door... still go about their own way.
It seems that all the hat rules of the royal family have no restrictions on them, even if the cocktail hat is exaggerated enough, the princesses can also show it more exaggeratedly.
Although there are more than 5,000 hats, all of which contain the queen’s own fashion ingenuity, but she has never missed a single hat during her decades in power..
Because she always regards wearing a hat as fulfilling her duties, which is her other crown .
No matter how much she likes this hat, she will not wear it twice within a year, and the total number of times of use will not exceed 10 times.
In addition: the brim of the hat should not be too wide, or it will block her face; the top of the hat should not be too high, or it will get stuck when getting out of the car; , the veil can only be worn when meeting the Pope.
Between personal fashion and the dignity of the monarch, the queen can always choose the right balance, which is driven by dedication and sense of responsibility.
Queen’s designer Philip Somerville once said:
"No matter if there is a disaster or it is windy and rainy, the hat must stay on the queen’s head, and the queen does not have to hold it down with her hands... The queen once told me, She never lost her hat."
Because of this, the queen who gave rules and free will to the world above her head is also known as z1The last representatives of respectable society in England.
Using uniforms and hats, she has established an image of a stable monarch.
As the Queen's Britons say "WithElizabeth on the throne the monarchy is safe".
But behind all the stability and decency, everyone should not forget.
The queen will also secretly take out a small mirror to put on lipstick. It has nothing to do with the monarch, She still loves beautiful and delicate ordinary women inside .
Having said that, Queen of England is not the only one who is obsessed with hats. The cultural popularity of
hats is more often as a social symbol appearing in every corner of the life of the British people.
What's even more funny is that although hats have risen among the people, they have gradually become a tool for the British upper class to show their superiority.
礼帽之下
英国上流滑稽的优越感
英国多变的天气，想必姐妹们早有耳闻，所以帽子诞生之初更多是方便普通人防晒、防雨、防降温的。
Hats have gradually become a must-have daily necessities, no matter what class you need a hat.
At this time, the upper classes are somewhat reluctant, they need to show a sense of superiority, to be different from ordinary people .
The easiest way is to start with the style and material, reduce the practicality of the hat, enhance the decoration , you can be identified as a "rich person" in the crowd.
For example, Rose's exaggerated hat in "Titanic" was a typical example of upper-class wear at that time.
Even in the Middle Ages, people of different classes had to wear hats that combined their identities.
The royal family and the high-ranking people enjoy exclusive access to gold, silver, jewellery, silk and satin; prisoners can only wear paper hats; ordinary people cannot customize top hats.
The requirements for women to wear hats are even more stringent. In the eyes of medieval nobles, women’s hair is regarded as private parts, which can only be exposed when they are at home.
Therefore, when going out or on important occasions, women must wear hats, otherwise it is impolite.
This funny concept is still reserved by the royal family, Royal etiquette stipulates that upper-class women must wear hats to go to various official occasions.
In the later period, because of Queen Mary (the Queen’s grandmother) ’s pro-people policy, more and more upper class began to integrate into people’s livelihood.
At this time, nobles can intentionally create distinctions on their hats, but they can’t appear arrogant and disrespectful; the rigid rules of class wearing hats are also abolished.
But their sense of superiority remains.
Aristocratic gentlemen began to use different styles of hats and different wearing methods to express their different levels of self-confidence, experience and experience.
even derived a set of hat etiquette for taking off, buttoning and hanging hats... In short, every gentleman and lady must learn this set.
Today, this set of traditions is still preserved in the UK.
Hilary Alexander, fashion director of The Daily Telegraph, once said that "hats are also part of the British social network".
When it comes to formal occasions in British society, no hat is complete without .
But yes, hats have been completely declassified.
is not exclusive, any style and any material can be worn on the top of the head as long as ordinary people are willing, even if it is the same style as the Queen, citizens can wear it on the parade without any pressure.
The sense of superiority that the old money of the royal family has struggled for centuries, looks somewhat ridiculous now.
On the contrary, the female members headed by the queen turned the hat into a fashion symbol and spread it in the world's cultural media .
I have to say that the women of the British royal family are all attractive catchers .
From Queen Elizabeth II to Princess Diana, and then to Kate, they resisted and worked hard for responsibility, freedom, and decency, which was wonderful and dazzling .
