Elizabeth I of England: Nicknamed Gloriana. Scholarly, musical, devious, mercurial. Leagued with pirates. Inspired adventurers, artists, poets and playwrights. Small but mighty: ruled her court of ruthless intriguers with an iron fist in a slender velvet glove. Style icon. Swore loudly, rode madly, hunted deer with peacock-feathered arrows, danced daily, dallied much but promised nothing. Spoke seven languages. Raised England to rank with the great powers of Europe. Kept her head, when those about her were losing theirs. Bequeathed her name to an Age.

Of course you need this gown!
