“Vintage” fashion show from the 70s of the reign of Elizabeth II and a gigantic picnic, with the typical menu of a Garden Party at Buckingham Palace, on the last day of the sovereign’s Diamond Jubilee celebrations. British eccentricity, patriotism and creativity in action to honor her.
Speculation was that the queen could thank the tributes from the balcony of Buckingham Palace. And he came. The royal banner signaling her presence was raised and the royals cleared the dais in front of Queen Victoria’s monument to head towards her. The Mall filled up and everyone forgot the threat of rain. A unique, historic opportunity to be told to the next generations.
With a bright green coat and hat, his cane, the brooch in the shape of a diamond bow inherited from her mother, her classic pearls, the sovereign has arrived on the balcony of Buckingham Palace. Beside her were Prince Charles with Camilla, the future queen consort, the Duke of Cambridge and their three children.
He waved his white gloves briefly, leaning on his cane. The Mall began to spice it up. It was the end of a party where her mobility problems prevented her from participating with her direct presence. She at 96 years old.

The glorious past of 70 years on the throne and the future. There was the royal family, the stoicism and personal integrity of their kingdom, immediate succession and what follows. The sense of service and gratitude before the end of an era. Nothing lasted more than five minutes.
“God save the queen” was sung by all. The queen turned and disappeared into the great door. It was the end of the celebrations in her honor and a great closing of the season. Many were thrilled. An air of nostalgia and the last time it took over everyone.
