1/5: #CecilBeaton wrote in catalogue of 1971 exhbt @V_and_A that he'd ideally like to have something belonging to #QueenAlexandra: "She was ineffably chic. Her silhouette was that of a figurine of #Knossos with her hourglass corset & high, tightly packed hair."

"Be daring, be different, be impractical, be anything that will assert integrity of purpose and imaginative vision against the play-it-safers, the creatures of the commonplace, the slaves of the ordinary."
