"Dame Anna Wintour should have removed her sunglasses when in the presence of Her Majesty The Queen at London Fashion Week," says Hanson. Hanson said that Wintour has managed to remove the glasses at other royal events, including the Fashion Week reception at Buckingham Palace the day before.
"Although I know that Dame Anna would have meant The Queen no deliberate disrespect, it is a shame that the queen of fashion's protocol was far from on trend yesterday," he says.
That said, he doesn't think Her Majesty would have been offended. "She would probably have noticed and internally thought it was a bit odd, but The Queen has seen it all and clearly took it all in her stride!"
Some people on social media thought it was disrespectful.
