"Hidden behind the sparkle and spectacle there is the personal and the intimate, and this is the beauty of fashion history. Despite the wealth of information that we have on monarchs of the past, it can sometimes feel hard to grasp the realities of their lives. But exploring some of the iconic pieces in their wardrobes can be a great place to start searching for the answers." - from the rear outer jacket. "Each stitch has a story, you just need to know how to read them. Fashion for the royal family has long been one of their most powerful weapons. Every item of their clothing is imbued with meaning, history and majesty, telling a complex tale of the individuals who wore them and the houses they represented. From the draping of a fabric to the arrangement of jewels, the clothing worn by royals is anything but coincidental. King at just nine years old, Edward VI's clothes were padded to make him seem stronger and more manly; and the ever-conscious Elizabeth II insisted her coronation gown include all the representative flora of the Commonwealth nations, and not just that of the United Kingdom. Original and enlighening, Rosie Harte's complete history delicately weaves together the fashion faux pas and Vogue-worthy triumphs that chart the history ouf our royals from the Tudors to King Charles III and our twenty-first century royal family. Travelling far beyond the bounds of the court, The Royal Wardrobe reveals the economic, social and political consequences of royal apparel, be it breeches, tiara, wig or waistcoat." - from the inner front jacket flap.
