The Queen has an endless custom-made umbrella collection – with one for every colour of the rainbow to match her outfits

Turns out, Her Majesty gets her brollies custom-made to match the colour of her ensemble

WITH her penchant for block colour coats and chic leather handbags, it's no secret that Queen Elizabeth has developed a signature style that's all her own.

Forever a fan of colour-coded outfits, it turns out that The Queen purposefully matches her umbrellas with the exact shade of her ensemble.

And according to , the monarch actually has the brollies custom-made in a whole variety of shades so she'll never be caught short with a plain old offering.

So whether she's rocking an eye-catching magenta or a mint green get-up, The Queen is always prepared to match a fashion statement along with the dampening drizzle.
