The source stated, “There was a period when Jacqui [Meakin] was hesitant to allow blue to be worn at the same time as the Queen, but she’s now fine with it as long as the blues are very different hues. In the end, everything became a little hilarious, with all the ladies seeing the funny side.”
The royal family follows various norms and traditions, such as what to eat, how to act when presenting at royal occasions, and even how to greet the public.
Speaking with Express, a source close to the queen’s official dresser revealed Camilla’s odd request for Princess Kate and Sophie, the Duchess of Edinburgh, the two other senior royal women. While all three like wearing blue to official royal responsibilities, the queen has the final word on whether or not that is permitted.
Queen Camilla is the highest-ranking authority, thus she gets to decide what war to wage.
According to Express, Camila’s personal dresser, Jacqui Meakin, first “ruffled a few feathers” at the Palace since Camilla had strict guidelines regarding who may wear what hue. And, in most cases, this includes wearing blue.
Although Camilla was believed to be very stringent at initially, Kate and Sophie were eventually allowed to wear the same colour as long as it looked different enough.
“The Queen can now choose her outfits before the other women in the Royal Family.” “It’s part of the royal pecking order, which includes the clothes and colour,” the insider explained. “Her Majesty’s favourite colour is blue, as is Kate’s. Sophie is also very fond of it.
