Queen Camilla Awards Prestigious Royal Warrants to Glam Team
Queen Camilla has recognized several key members of her glam squad with Royal Warrants of Appointment. These prestigious honors highlight companies favored by the royal family. This latest round includes nearly 400 businesses, providing a glimpse into the royal preferences.
Honorees from the Queen's Glam Squad
Among the newly honored is Jo Hansford, Camilla’s hairdresser for 30 years. Hansford takes pride in being recognized as one of the best in the industry. She expressed pride in having Camilla as a client. "It’s particularly wonderful that the Queen has awarded it to an all-female-owned and run business," Hansford stated. This recognition reflects the incredible accomplishments that arise from dedication and hard work.
Another honored professional is Deborah Mitchell, the facialist renowned for her bee venom and collagen treatments. Camilla has trusted her expertise for 18 years. Mitchell recalls, "The Queen was the first to try [the bee venom mask] when I made it." This mask serves dual purposes: moisturizer and overnight treatment. It utilizes organic oils, Manuka honey, and a unique blend of bee venom, promoting skin rejuvenation.
Contributions to Fashion and Craftsmanship
Camilla also acknowledged Anna Valentine, her wedding dress designer. Valentine has created clothing for Camilla since 2002. The designer emphasized the importance of promoting small British businesses and artisans through this honor. "We aim to pass on our skills of design and craftsmanship to the next generation," she noted. Alongside Valentine, other fashion dignitaries honored include Fiona Clare, Philip Treacy, and Roy Allen.
In total, this recent awarding involves around 400 companies from the U.K. and abroad. Royal warrants symbolize high standards of goods and services. They are granted for up to five years, allowing the honored companies to display the royal coat of arms for promotional purposes. This is Camilla's first distribution of royal warrants, assigned alongside King Charles, who previously awarded 386 entitlements.
Interestingly, marked changes occurred this year; Cadbury, the iconic chocolatier, did not receive a warrant after over 170 years of service. Originally endorsed by Queen Victoria in 1854, it was also favored by Queen Elizabeth until her passing in 2022.
