In Memory of Queen Elizabeth II
On 8 September 2022, Queen Elizabeth II passed away at Balmoral Castle in Scotland. Queen Elizabeth performed the role destiny had given her with unwavering dedication, determined to take her final bow only with the final curtain. The Queen loved Scotland - and Scottish music. She even had her own piper, the Queen’s Piper, who played the bagpipes for her every morning.

The V & A is now trying to redress this imbalance with a major exhibition on African fashion, celebrating the imagination of African designers from over twenty countries.
