THE former dressmaker to the Queen, Hardy Amies, has filed for administration after funding talks failed. The firm, founded in 1946 by the late Sir Hardy Amies, suspended its shares two weeks ago.
Hardy Amies had been suffering losses for several years and has six UK outlets, including one in Edinburgh. It is also stocked in dozens of stores nationwide, including Harvey Nichols.

Betty Windsor must have been cutting down on the number of frocks she was buying; probably to help pay for her new private aircraft.

In the sixties I owned a few Hardy Amies ties and after they went out of style I donated them to charity.

They must be worth a fortune now since "retro" is back. I just want to forget the sixties and the seventies.
