What is mourning ?
The colour of deepest mourning among medieval European queens was white rather
than black. This tradition survived in Spain until the end of the fifteenth
century, and was again practiced by the Spanish-born Belgian Queen Fabiola of
King Baudouin's funeral. It was the custom for the Queens of France to wear
deuil blanc or "white mourning"; this is the origin of the white wardrobe
created by Norman Hartnell for Queen Elizabeth, later the Queen Mother, in 1938,
when Elizabeth was required to make a state visit to France while in mourning
for her mother.
