this month in 1559 elizabeth I is crowned queen of england and ushers in an age of elaborate…ornate fashion…her trademarks include long strands of pearls…jewel-encrusted gowns…countless wigs…starched ruffs and a plunging neckline that exposes her decolletage…she also pulls the ultimate fashion diva move…passing a law forbidding others to wear the same colors and styles as her…it’s good to be queen!
