< p > the exhibition entitled "Tudor and Stuart's fashion art" will be held at Queen's gallery in Buckingham Palace, and will be held in May 10th until October 6th.

< p > exhibits include more than 60 paintings, many of which are collections of Queen Elizabeth II, including the works of masters such as Rembrandt and Anthony Van Dyke.

< p > "this exhibition shows the fashion of 16 and seventeenth Century. It is the first time that the theme of the exhibition is held in the UK in this period." Anna Reynolds, an expert in the exhibition and an oil painting expert of the Royal Collection foundation, said in an interview with Xinhua news agency.

< p > "the fashion of that era conveys a lot of information to us, the most important of which is to reflect people's status and wealth, and social status," she said.

< /p >

< p > the beginning of the exhibition is the portrait of Henry VIII.

The monarch, once known as "the most dressed man," always knew how to show his authority through clothes.

The colors he chose, gold, black, white and red, were the common colors of the royal family.

He also made himself visible in the crowd by matching silk, fur and large jewellery.

An important exhibit beside P is the portrait of Queen Elizabeth I at the age of 13.

At that time, her mother and Henry VIII's second wives, Anne Boleyn, were executed, and Elizabeth's Princess status was also denied. But the red dress she wore in the painting was obtained from a very expensive dye from crushed insects, which shows that she is still very much loved by the royal family.

In addition, her sleeve is made of gold thread woven on silver fabric, which is designed for royal families only.

People's status is not only reflected by the color and texture of clothing, but also plays a similar role in decoration and accessories. P

< p > James Thi's Queen Anne is the princess of Denmark.

In the oil painting, she had C4 decoration on her head, which was presented to her brother Christian, then king of Denmark, and the S decoration on her collar came from her mother.

These details show that she is not only the wife of a British monarch, but also a member of the Danish royal family.

The use of lace was also very important at that time. < p >

Lace production is complex and takes a long time, so it is also a symbol of identity.

According to Reynolds, an important exhibit is a portrait of Charlie three from the angles of the front, the side and the oblique side, drawn by Anthony Van Dyke, the chief painter of the British court during the Charlie Thi era.

His work is for the reference of Benigni, a sculptor of Italy, so the three people in the picture are different in color and detail, and the collar is decorated with lace.

< p > Reynolds told reporters that from the Tudor Dynasty to the Stuart Dynasty, British dress fashion was greatly influenced by foreign countries.

In sixteenth Century, the biggest impact came from Spain, which was then strong. However, by seventeenth Century, France's influence was even greater.

< /p >

< p > Britain's monarch is also trying to create his own fashion, such as Charlie S wearing a long waistcoat for a while.

He had a French tailor who informed him of the fashion trend in France so that he could always lead the fashion.

< /p >

< p > with the development of the times, the crowd pursuing fashion is also expanding.

At the beginning of sixteenth Century, the court was the main fashion place, and a set of clothes sometimes had a house.

In the seventeenth Century, with the expansion of the middle class, more people joined in the fashion industry, so that many of the designs and clothes originally belonged to the royal family went into common people's homes.
