Queen Elizabeth II made a surprise, unannounced visit to London Fashion Week. The 91-year-old monarch arrived at the Richard Quinn show during London Fashion Week at the BFC Showspace in an Angela Kelly blue, crystal-embellished skirt and jacket, all smiles for the paparazzi and amazed showgoers. She knows she’s chic and the best part of this event:
