On This Day

Posted by Karen on July 11, 2025, 8:54 am

1970 - The Queen, the Duke of Edinburgh, the Prince of Wales and Princess Anne visited Fort Providence in the Northwest Territories of Canada. Both the Queen and Anne in headscarfs and trouser suits! Also the Queen with a shoulder bag (purse). Wonder what the Duke done either to his shoulder or arm?

I think this was the visit where they encountered vast amounts of mosquitoes. The Royal party had been advised of the possibility and had followed suggestions of how to dress.

I have to add I loved the rare occasions when we saw HM in a pants suit and head scarf. She could rock the look like no other!
