The British monarchy offers hundreds of job positions. One of them is a flunky—a staff who works closely to The Queen and wears in Her Majesty's shoes so that they are comfortable to wear during Her Majesty's busy schedule.
For fifty years, The Queen has worn the same style of shoes. These shoes are handmade by London-based Anello & Davide.
Angela Kelly LVO shared this anecdote in her book, The Other Side of the Coin: The Queen, the Dresser and the Wardrobe. Kelly's official title is Personal Assistant, Adviser and Curator to Her Majesty the Queen. She shares the same shoe size as The Queen. One of her tasks, amongst others, is to wear in Her Majesty's shoes.
