"Opening to the public today (April 10)
and running until October 18,
the exhibition brings together more than 300 pieces from the late monarch's wardrobe
- over half on display for the very first time
- and marks the centenary of her birth.

Created by British couturier Norman Hartnell for her 1947 wedding to Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh,
the gown carried deep symbolic meaning for a nation emerging from war.

Among the highlights are charming pieces from Queen Elizabeth's early years,
including floral dresses, tiny ballet shoes and even a fairy costume."

The Queen Elizabeth II Aquamarine Tiara and Burmese Ruby Tiara
- both commissioned by the Queen and reflective of her own taste -
are also on display,
with the latter being shown for the very first time."

I saw the name of designer Norman Hartnell on several dresses and I got curious.
