You very rarely see the Queen in the same clothes twice.What happens to them.Also the late Queen Mother what became of the thousands of outfits she must have worn in her lifetime.
Considering their outfits are not bought from the local rag and tag their clothes must have cost many thousands to be only worn once.
Charles seems a little more thrifty as he has had the long brown coat for many years and wears it quite often.

Yeah but must days she doesn't go out, I'm sure she doesn't just go about in her house in tracky bottoms, probably just wears them like...when she's not in public, like to dinners and stuff.

I saw some of the Queens clothes this year at the palace. Now, I'm no sewer, BUT the hem on one of her coats was a disgrace!

Some of queen Victoria's silk bloomers went on auction last year and sold for several thousands a pair.

The waist size was 50 inches and given the fact that her overall height was only 5 feet she must have resembled a large rubber ball.
