I became aware in early May 2002 that people were
seeking colouring in pictures to use in school jubilee fashion history project work. I have made
a very basic outline sketch of the Queen's Coronation Gown suitable for children
to either colour or use as a guideline for fabric or paper collage.
The sketch should be satisfactory as a handout
for a lesson on for example the importance of the constitution, or simply for
fun colouring in during jubilee school celebrations or as part of a street party
goody bag containing felt pens or crayons.
The sketch would also be suitable for a teacher
to scale up for a large wall mural with different children working on specific
sections. The file has been scaled to print out to A4 size. Just double
click the picture and print off when downloaded or save to disk. It will
also open in Microsoft Word if you have limited picture software. For
instructions to open files in Word see my page called Fashion
Drawing.
Note - the Queen wore a Diadem to the Abbey and
wore the Crown after the coronation ceremony on the return journey.

contribute to lifestyle trends, which in turn influence the clothes we wear. These are the changes that make any era of society special in relation to the study of the costume of a period.
