Whilst Mr Red has not yet received his MBE we now have another invite to attend.
The Queens Jubilee Thanks Giving Service and reception, the dress code for men is simple - lounge suit, tails etc.
But for women its not very clear - so can I wear a nice trouser suit to the proceedings? Am thinking wide leg long jacket?
The only other thing I can wear comfortably is a maxi dress as I am very aware of the odema on my legs
Thanks all

Seems to imply that I can wear trousers, its all so confusing and stressful lol
Thanks Danny
There is a protocol office at the Palace that you can ring. yes I think it would be OK
God knows you have oedema of the legs and doesnt mind

I think that covers it all ( pun intended)
From the link //women have a little more freedom when it comes to their outfit choices, as they can wear a trouser suit or a cocktail dress.//

Yes Danny, its the first article and etiquette guide I have read though that says about trousers
