The Queen’s fashion secrets to be revealed in a tell-all book by ‘confidante’ Angela Kelly
SHE'S RENOWNED for her colourful wardrobe - and now the secrets to the Queen's style are set to be explored in a tell-all book, which will delight royal fans.
And the story behind the 93-year-old monarch's fashion choices will be revealed by one of her very closest advisers - her dresser Angela Kelly.
In the upcoming title The Other Side of the Coin: The Queen, the Dresser and the Wardrobe, Her Majesty's key confidante will delve into 25-years of curating her iconic looks.
Angela, 51, who has served at Buckingham Palace since 1994, holds the positions of Personal Advisor and Curator (The Queen’s Jewellery, Insignias and Wardrobe) and In-house Designer.
Despite being a current member of the royal household, she has been given "extraordinary permission" to publish details of her "working relationship" with the Queen.
It is the first time the monarch has allowed one of her staff to do so.
The book - which will be published by Harper Collins worldwide on 29th October - will give readers a unique insight into the Queen's revered style.
This includes unseen photographs from Angela's personal collection, as well as anecdotes about their friendship and how the pair prepare outfits for formal occasions.
Samantha Cohen CVO, Assistant Private Secretary to The Queen, said: "This book documents the unique working relationship between Her Majesty The Queen and the woman who has been her Personal Advisor and Senior Dresser for more than two decades: Angela Kelly.
She revealed: "We [the royal dressers] are not treated like flunkies.
"It's not like that. The Queen treats us with real respect.
"I don't know why the Queen seems fond of me - because I don't give her an easy time! I do think she values my opinion, but she is the one who is in control.
"I do worry about her and care about her. But we also have a lot of fun together. The Queen has a wicked sense of humour and is a great mimic. She can do all accents - including mine."
