For an unusual reason, the emerita always wore gloves.
Queen Elizabeth was an emblematic figure of the British Crown, she not only stood out for her position, but also for her distinctive style in every public appearance. In addition to her elegant hats, the queen always wore white gloves and bags, inseparable elements of her outfit that have a special meaning.
These gloves, made of pure cotton and suede details, are carefully selected in neutral colors such as white, black or ivory. But, you've probably wondered why the queen never took off her gloves in public? The reason has given rise to various interpretations that many considered offensive, one of them being to protect oneself from dirt and germs.
Although there has been speculation about health reasons, some experts suggest that the constant use of gloves is a matter of style for the monarch. According to Genevieve James, known for making gloves for prominent figures, the remembered emerita used them because she liked them and they were an integral part of her style, making her an icon of elegance.
This choice of clothing contrasts with the attitude of other royal figures, such as Princess Diana and Meghan Markle, who chose to be closer to people and rejected the use of gloves as Queen Elizabeth did, who never stopped wearing them in her clothes. public appearances.
This gesture of closeness contributed to Princess Diana being nicknamed the 'People's Princess', highlighting her empathy and warmth towards those who followed her, unlike Queen Elizabeth who we never saw without wearing this garment in her hands.
