Tales from the Royal Wardrobe
with Lucy Worsley
BBC Four
Mon 7 Jul 2014

Today, few people's clothes attract as much
attention as the royal family, but this is not a modern-day Hello magazine-inspired
obsession. As Dr Lucy Worsley reveals, it has always been this way. Exploring
the royal wardrobes of our kings and queens over the last 400 years, Lucy shows
this isn't just a public preoccupation, but our monarchs' as well. From
Elizabeth I to our present queen, Lucy believes that the royal wardrobe's
significance goes way beyond the cut and colour of the clothing and that royal
fashion is and has always been regarded as their personal statement to their
people. So most monarchs have carefully choreographed every aspect of their
wardrobe and, for those who have not, there have sometimes been calamitous
consequences.
