Queen Elizabeth II’s fashion is going on display in a landmark Buckingham Palace exhibition called Queen Elizabeth II: Her Life in Style. The show opens at The King’s Gallery on April 10, 2026, and will feature about 200 items from her wardrobe, including many pieces never seen publicly before.

What’s included

The exhibition spans the late Queen’s life, from her wedding and coronation looks to off-duty clothes like tweed blazers, riding outfits, and headscarves. It will also include accessories, jewelry, sketches, and fabric samples that show how her wardrobe was created behind the scenes.

Why it matters

Curators say her style was a masterclass in symbolism, tailoring, and British craftsmanship, and the display is designed to show how her fashion legacy still influences designers today. The timing also marks the centenary of Queen Elizabeth II’s birth, making the exhibit both a style showcase and a tribute to her legacy.
