She famously went to the Hermes store/boutique/pavilion at the Windsor horse trials every year, in casual wear ie stout shoes, raincoat and scarf on head, not hat.
She was photographed and typically walked out with a new Hermes scarf every year, getting her the rep of wearing only Hermes.

Could it be a custom design just for the queen?

I'm afraid that's must be myth. I've been to the Windsor Horse Show since I was a child, visited the H stand on numerous occasions (she visited most stands). The Queen walked around, some occasions QEII was dressed in a suit and matching hat like on her Diamond Jubilee and visited all stands, sometimes no hat at all, and a couple of times a scarf. Always appropriate.

I'd like to know what this one in '79 ??? Love the cape. The scarf looks older, no?

Is it H?

No, but she had lots of scarves that were non-H

I think she's wearing her 1972 in 2002 Regina (not a special or ltd ed). The 2002 Golden Jubilee special edition was blues and pinks

Behold Queen Elizabeth, Headscarf Influencer

Sure she's known for her hats, but England's longest reigning monarch really knows how to wear a square of silk.

More hats than not! And a non Hermes scarf ! No Hermes scarves, what was I thinking ?? Mon Dieu !!! Sacre bleu
I know what it is - it is FAKE FRENCH DISINFORMATION NEWS due to main stream media ! LOL (big fat joke here...) I always saw the pix in Paris Match or Point de Vue - French magazines !! They had me thinking she always wore H scarves ... more likely, they ONLY showed pix with Hermes scarves

:lol: Good publicity for H!

Windsor was/is up to 5 days long, and sometimes evening events too, so she must have worn lots of outfits. Mostly looking very regal, occasionally suitably horsey. I think she enjoyed every minute for sure.

My mom has an insane H scarf collection, and she gave me one because she discovered she had a duplicate, but I don't know what the design is, I know its vintage because she thinks it was my grandmothers before it was hers, which is why she has a duplicate.

Name of the design is in the middle, Republique Francais Liberte Egalite Fraternite. It's first issued in 1989 at the bicentennial anniversary of France becoming a republic. Joachim Metz is the designer for this silk.
