    When I think of those pictures of Queen Alexandra wearing so very many pieces, all the way down the front... THOSE might have been (must have been?) sewn on.

    : the serious scale.
    : Also HM's clothing is made specifically for
    : brooches, and the brooches are well designed
    : and balanced... unlike items in my world.

    : II would use stitching to secure any brooch.
    : First, I do believe her jewellery is kept in
    : tip top condition so that fasteners would be
    : reliable.
    : Second, it is unlikely that anyone would be
    : pushing past her close enough to dislodge
    : anything.
    : Third, I expect she has long since given up
    : vigorous forms of dancing in public.

    : The only problem (if you can call it that) I
    : can see is that QEII often moves her brooch
    : from her coat to her dress and back again.

    : I doubt that the brooch would get sewn on

    : This might be done with certain brooches
    : where the pin is perhaps not a secure.

    : Hard to tell i thinks until we see it being
    : done.
