Join fashion historian Dr Kate Strasdin as she reveals a tribe of previously unsung women and men – the milliners, tailors, jewellers, embroiderers and couturiers whose skilled labour has been central to 200 years of royal style and is a vital part of our country’s history.
In conversation with journalist and host of ITV’s ‘Talking Royals’ podcast Charlene White, Strasdin brings to life stories of craftspeople from Frieda Arnold, Queen Victoria’s German dresser to the makers whose work was so integral to royal life that they became part of Queen Elizabeth’s bubble during lockdown.
