Queen Elizabeth II’s impact on the world cannot be overstated.
She was a shining example of the throw in of leadership a woman is capable of.
She also became a style icon.
Her teachings were so poignant, they’re apparent today in how the royal family still dresses.
Here are some subtle style nods the royal family has made to Queen Elizabeth since her death.
One of Elizabeth’s most notable fashion habits was color blocking.
As Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh, has explained, this choice was very deliberate.
For example, on Easter in 2023, Catherine wore a bright blue coat with a matching hat.
“I think they all honored her in their own personal way.
Prior to Queen Elizabeth’s death, Prince William’s other half donned her jewelry on numerous occasions.
This particular jewelry set holds a great deal of symbolic weight.
The princess had worn them before the queen’s death from time to time on loan.
Many of her tributes have been through jewels that the late monarch either received as a gift or inherited.
The late monarch had a massive collection, with estimates putting the grand total at 98.
They were expensive, too one of her most famous was assumed to be worth over 9 million.
In May of that same year, the queen consort pinned the Williamson diamond brooch to her lapel.
This piece, which was worn by Elizabeth on her wedding day, was designed by Cartier.
And yes, she’s donned a few of them since Elizabeth’s death.
This particular diadem is steeped in history.
And there was one particular brand of bag that Queen Elizabeth was known for carrying: Launer.
However, in the aforementioned Vogue piece, Bodmer insisted this rumor didn’t hold water.
“The Queen had a charisma, a very good sense of humor.
You don’t need to when you’re like that,” he said.
Camilla was a fan of the bags before Queen Elizabeth’s death, though.
In fact, in early 2020, Camilla met with Bodmer for a tour of the brand’s factory.
In fact, there’s far more information about the presents she received than the ones she gave.
The duchess was reportedly presented with them while visiting Cheshire with the late monarch.
As previously stated, Princess Catherine also wore pearls to Queen Elizabeth’s funeral.
“Their power lies in the fact that they aren’t overwhelming.
Prince Edward and Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh, got in on the inheritance, too.
What’s more, the pieces can always be loaned to members of the royal family for an evening.
Sophie has dipped into the Windsor family jewelry box multiple times since the queen’s passing.
“They genuinely liked one another, and they spent a lot of time together.
They seemed to very much enjoy one another’s company.
I think it was very much a two-way relationship.
“She was so brilliant at putting you at ease.
She had the most incredible faith of any single person I’ve ever met.
She just knew what to do.
She knew how to make people feel good.
She never took it onboard as about her.
It’s about the monarchy, about making someone feel good.
Along with her all-black outfit, the duchess wore a silver swallow brooch.
As noted, Queen Elizabeth loved brooches, but the swallow made the piece even more meaningful.
According to Elmwood’s, a U.K.-based jewelry store, during the Victorian era, swallows symbolized safety.
The bird pin may have been Sarah’s way of wishing her friend safety on her new journey.
Beatrice has been taking sartorial notes from her grandmother since before her death.
In 2020, Beatrice and Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi got married in secret at the Chapel Royal in London.
