Donatella Versace Agrees Queen Elizabeth ‘Is The Most Fashionable Person’

Yesterday Donatella Versace told a bunch of kids at Oxford the ultimate truth: Queen Elizabeth is one badass dresser.

As per the Telegraph, Versace was all:

“The Queen can do whatever she wants, but I would dress her in black. She is rock and roll — I’m not joking! And she is the most fashionable person.”

Duh. We obviously agree. And with this weekend being Liz’s Diamond Jubilee, we would like to bring this little gem out of retirement. Behold, Liz being trendy!

1.Military Jackets

The military craze started with Balmain back in 2009, and it's still going strong. So on point, Liz!

2.Bright Abstracts

Rag & Bone showed lots of brightly colored abstract prints in September, and while the Queen's print isn't quite as abstracted, it definitely fits the aesthetic.

3.Yellow Ruffles

Zac Posen's runway show for his Z Spoke line heralded a yellow ruffle trend for spring. Looks like Elizabeth is ahead of the game.

4.Huge Florals

During Fashion Week, Jil Sander was all about big, bright florals. Coincidentally, so is the Queen.

5.Bow Prints

Queen Elizabeth doesn't just have the runway locked down, her looks have downmarket influences also. For example, check out how much this See by Chloé bow print matches her own bow print dress.
