Long before Diana’s revenge dress took the world by storm or Princess Anne’s sunglasses went viral, there has always been a fascination with members of the Royal Family and the significance behind their style.

The Times has been documenting this fascination for more than 200 years – from the early Regency period to modern day – and has borne witness to the evolution of the Crown’s carefully curated public image. With access to the rich history of The Times archive, this authoritative account peels back the layers of silk and chiffon to re-examine the royals who captured the public imagination through their inimitable style.

The perfect gift for royal watchers and fashion lovers alike, this lavishly illustrated volume features:

• A foreword by Anna Murphy, author and Fashion Director of The Times
• Stunning full-colour photography, rarely seen archival images and fashion sketches
• Articles from The Times archive, which reveal fascinating social commentary on the development of British fashion
