200 Launer Handbags
Owned Since: 1950s
Valued At: $500,000*
The Queen can afford to purchase any kind of handbag she wants. She might be dropping a few thousand on Ralph Lauren or Chanel’s designs, but they are not to Her Majesty’s taste. Liz, instead, prefers Launer, a designer based in London. Back in the 1950s, her mother first gifted her one, kicking off a lifelong obsession. The queen has more than 200 of Launer’s handbags now. The Royale and Traviata are her favorite styles. Each cost $2,500, making it incredibly expensive for her collection and valuable.
