Fit for a Queen

Dress for the Occasion, an exhibition of 80 of the Queen’s evening gowns to celebrate the Queen’s 80th birthday opens Wednesday at Buckingham Palace. Apparently a super slim waist is not something new since some of the dresses she wore in her twenties reveal that she had a very slim, model-like figure.
