Queen Elizabeth was a great follower of fashion.

While in private she preferred to wear simple gowns, and would reputedly wear the same plain gown for two or three days, when she was in public, she dressed to impress.

Clothes were an important status symbol to the Elizabethans, and a person had to dress in accordance with their social status.

It was thus in keeping that the Queen dressed more magnificent than everyone else.

No one was allowed to rival the Queen's appearance, and one unfortunate maid of honor was reprimanded for wearing a gown that was too sumptuous for her.

The maids were meant to complement the Queen's appearance, not to outshine her. In the later years of the reign, the maids wore gowns of plain colors such as white or silver.

The Queen had dresses of all colors, but White and Black were her favorite colors as they symbolized virginity and purity, and more often than not she wore a gown of these colors.

The Queen's gowns would be gorgeously hand embroidered with all sorts of colored thread, and decorated with diamonds, rubies, sapphires, and all kinds of jewels.

A book entitled "Queen Elizabeth's Wardrobe Unlock'd", details some of the jewels that fell off the Queen's gowns when she wore them.

Queen Victoria's favourite color is unknown. She apparently dressed preferentially in dark colors, although many of her portraits show her in white.
