The Royal Family at the LEGOLAND®Windsor Resort's famous Miniland are getting an exclusive make over for Royal Ascot this June as award winning hat maker to Her Majesty the Queen, Rachel Trevor Morgan, creates stunning miniature designs for seven head turning 10cm high regal LEGO® models.

Situated in front of Miniland's miniature recreation of Buckingham Palace tiny models of Her Majesty the Queen, The Duchess of Cornwall, Princesses Eugenie and Beatrice, Zara Philips, The Duchess of Cambridge and her mother Carole Middleton – will each wear a specially created piece of headwear designed and hand made by Rachel Trevor Morgan.

Her Majesty The Queen will wear a characteristically classic and colourful straw hat in bright yellow with tiny hand painted silk flowers.  The Duchess of Cornwall's dove grey side sweeping picture hat is decorated with minute feathers swirling to form an elegant circular design whilst the Duchess of Cambridge will wear an understated yet stunning Royal Blue straw slice hat with two miniature quill feathers.   Zara Philips' funky metallic disc shaped hat will be topped with tiny maroon red feathers in a dramatic arrow formation whilst her cousins Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie will wear a jaunty white beret with jay feathers and a green feather hat.

Guests will be able to see the Miniland Royal ladies dressed in their Royal Ascot Hats from 10 June until 21 June. And there's plenty more to explore at the Resort with over 55 interactive rides and attractions including new Pirate Shores, the famous LEGOLAND Driving School and the splash-tastic DUPLO® Valley.
