Queen Elizabeth II has been named one of the world`s most glamorous women by fashion bible Vogue. British Vogue`s December issue includes the 81-year- old monarch on its 50-name 'Definitive List of Today's Glamorous Women' calling her "as glamorous in her brogues and headscarf in Balmoral as she is wearing the crown jewels."
Also on the Vogue list are models Kate Moss, Naomi Campbell and Claudia Schiffer, novelist Zadie Smith and actress Helen Mirren, who played the British monarch in Oscar- winning film "The Queen", architect Zaha Hadid, artist Sam Taylor-Wood and Jimmy Choo founder Tamara Mellon and many more.
But this is not the first time the Queen has been applauded for her classic take on fashion. When Dame Helen Mirren donned wax jacket and wellies to play the monarch in the 2006 film The Queen, she reportedly sparked a run on Barbours in US stores.
The Queen though has a conservative personality, but often dresses in brightly colored outfits for her public appearances, accessorized with sensible shoes and handbags. She has her own style statement which the magazine too justifies by compiling the list for its December "glamour" issue, saying:
Glamour is about how you wear something, not about what you wear. You can't buy glamour, and you can't fake it. But unlike beauty, it's not something you are born with, though it comes more naturally to some than others.
