Want to look happy and glorious? Take style lessons from Her Majesty

穿搭想要明媚又靓丽吗?来跟女王陛下学几手吧!

The Queen is, without a shadow of a doubt, my ultimate fashion icon. My style crushes come and go, but I bow down to Her Majesty. The royal wardrobe has been serving up pop-art colours since silkscreen portraits were just a twinkle in Andy Warhol's eye.

可以毫无疑问地说,女王伊丽莎白二世,就是本人心目中时尚偶像的“天花板”。我的穿搭喜好总是常换常新,不过我的时尚标杆,始终唯女王陛下的穿搭“马首是瞻”。早在丝网版画还只是安迪·沃霍尔脑海中乍现的灵光之时,女王的衣橱便已然呈现出了波普艺术的风味。

There are many style lessons to be learned from the Queen, but the first is the power of colour. The Queen has made head-to-toe colour, in every shade of the rainbow, her signature look. Colour brings a tiny dopamine hit of surprise to every public appearance. It spotlights her as the centre of attention in any scene, but is cheery and accessible rather than fancy.

女王身上值得借鉴的时尚功课不在少数,不过“开学第一课”,还得是学会善用色彩的能量。女王陛下从头到脚统一配色的“彩虹装”,早已成了她的标志性穿搭。在每一场公开亮相中,她的服装色彩都微妙地牵动着多巴胺,惊艳全场。无论身处何地,色彩的力量总能将她凸显成为瞩目的焦点;然而诸如此类的配色选择,其实并不花哨复杂,而是轻松明快且富有亲和力。

The second style lesson is that a great wardrobe is never about trends. Clothes say who you are before you have spoken a word, which is why people who stay true to a signature style are those whose looks we remember.*** If you stick to a formula, you can have fun with clothes without looking flighty. A tight focus on one look will always say strength of character.

女王穿搭第二课则要说到:魅力迭出的衣装,绝非是跟风之作。“只见其人,不闻其声”之时,衣着就是你的自我简介;所以,始终坚持一种标志性风格的人,其个人时尚也是深入人心的。如果你能坚守某一种装扮公式,你就能把穿搭“玩明白”,跟“大杂烩”风格说拜拜。将功夫花在一种穿搭上,你的人格魅力不言自明。

Good style doesn't come between you and what you need to get done. The third lesson from the royal playbook is that clothes should help you do your job, never hinder it. In case you were still under the impression that style icons had to wear heels, I point you to Her Majesty's favourite black loafers, the most useful all-purpose shoes in existence.

优质的穿搭绝不会有碍你完成任何事务。女王穿搭指南的第三课便是:衣着还需“帮衬”工作,而非“拖后腿”。要是你的想法还停留在“时尚标杆非高跟鞋不穿”的误区,那我得告诉你,女王陛下最爱的就是黑色乐福鞋了,那可算是现下最万能最百搭的鞋款,没有之一。
