英國女王伊麗莎白二世在位 70 年期間,睿智、優雅形象深植人心,永遠將皇室與國家職責放在第一順位的她,走訪過全球 100 多個國家,參加過的公開活動更不計其數,女王每每亮相,一身「色票式穿搭」向來是大家討論的焦點,除了好看,這些造型的背後更代表著女王的別有用心。

英國女王伊麗莎白二世,是英國歷史上最長壽且在位最久的君主,從 25 歲「意外」接下王位,女王便明白自己肩負的,是整個英國還有皇室形象的重則大任,70 年來用她的堅毅與智慧,陪伴國家度過許多危機,不僅對英國,甚至對全世界都有著穩定民心的強大力量。

而女王的穿著也成為輔助她履行職務的重要工具,根據規定,皇室成員在政治上必須保持中立,女王平時外交活動職務繁多,衣服就成為她傳達訊息的重要媒介。

哀悼女王離世的同時,也別沈浸在難過氛圍太久,編輯希望透過女王的穿衣哲學,讓大家永遠記得女王漂亮優雅,還有幽默聰穎的一面。

顏色的重要性

相信多數讀者對女王穿搭的印象不乏是一套套有著鮮豔色彩的套裝,有著「色彩女王」的稱號,而女王之所以鍾情於五顏六色的套裝並不是只為了好看,女王曾說:「我不能穿米色,因為那樣沒人知道我是誰。」,女王的存在對整個英國來說有安定、鼓舞的影響力,之所以會穿著亮眼的套裝,其實是為了讓大家快速認出。

深得女王芳心的蘇菲王妃(愛德華王子的夫人)也說,女王對亮色的熱愛,來自於希望自己現身能成為激勵的人民力量,看到國民興奮說出「我看到女王了」,女王也會感到非常開心。

女王也會根據不同外交場合選擇顏色,像女王經常穿的藍色,代表著她對英國人民忠誠的象徵,藍色又具有鎮靜、減壓的作用,若遭逢國家困難時期,女王便會選擇藍色套裝出席。

女王另一個常穿的顏色—黃色,則充滿希望和樂觀精神。當年女王參加威廉王子的婚禮,就穿著淺黃色套裝,不僅顏色能見度高、與婚禮歡樂氛圍相符,同時又不會搶走新娘的焦點。

2011 年女王自愛爾蘭共和國獨立後首次訪問,身穿一襲綠色套裝,綠色不僅是愛爾蘭的國色,也象徵著新的開始、思想及復興,展現出英國對愛爾蘭並無侵略之意,同時期盼兩國能有全新的開始。

色彩女王名不虛傳

英國女王色彩女王的稱號並不是虛有其名,2012 年 6 月為慶祝女王在位 60 週年,全球色彩權威公司 Pantone 特別從女王經常穿的顏色中,推出限量版的色票指南,舉凡代表忠誠的 PANTONE 13-4411 水晶藍,具有希望之意的 PANTONE 13-0755 報春花黃,還有浪漫的 PANTONE 16-2124 康乃馨粉等。

Pantone 的執行總監 Leatrice Eiseman 在研究時也發現:「女王每套造型都偏愛同種顏色,是一種強烈的風格宣言。單色配色不僅散發出更莊嚴的氣質,也能確保服裝不會分散穿著者的注意力,如果你是女王,這點尤其重要。」

手袋的摩斯密碼

女王包不離身的習慣已是眾所皆知,因為那是她與皇室工作人員講暗號的秘密工具(雖然這早已是公開的秘密)。

平時女王都用左手提包包,若她在對話過程中將包包換到右手,代表女王希望盡快結束這場對談;放桌上意味著女王即將結束對話,請工作人員準備,包包放地上則表示出大事了,女王想趕緊離開,所以女王的隨扈們必須時時刻刻注意女王手袋的動靜,深怕錯過女王的訊息。

胸針也能很有戲

女王細膩的個性也能從搭配的胸針看出端倪,1952 年出席父親喬治六世葬禮時,選擇原為母親所擁有的棕櫚葉胸針,2017 年與菲利普親王結婚 70 週年,女王特別別上菲利普親王年輕時送給她的聖甲蟲胸針,展現女王少女心的一面。

而女王胸針穿搭最經典的一例,非 2019 年美國前總統川普至英國拜訪時的胸針搭配,川普三天的拜訪行程,女王都戴著不同的胸針與他會面。

第一天女王戴著前總統歐巴馬送的小花胸針,第二天女王別著先前出席父親喪禮的胸針,最後一天則選擇川普死對頭,加拿大總理特魯多送給她的藍寶石胸針,透過選配的胸針默默暗示對川普的態度,不禁令人讚嘆女王的幽默感。

皇室成員們的穿著其實都有著一套必須遵守的規矩,而女王之所以能一直被視為時尚指標,不只是因為她的色票式穿搭,在位 70 年的每個時刻跟場合,她都謹記著自己身為女王的責任,再熱的天氣依然身著長袖套裝、帽子還有手套,為的就是要在世人面前樹立好的典範。

我想女王從一而終的風格無人能超越,雖然她已到天上與菲利普親王相聚,不過她的優雅身影將一直存在大家心中。

All the way well.
