Luxury lingerie retailer Rigby and Peller has lost its royal warrant after releasing a book containing the Queen’s bra measurements.
The warrant was withdrawn after bra fitter and business owner, June Kenton, released a book called ‘Storm in a D-Cup’ .
According to the BBC Kenton said there was “nothing in the book to be upset about”, adding that it was an “unbelievable” decision.
Rigby & Peller said it was “deeply saddened” by the decision and was “not able to elaborate further on the cancellation out of respect for her Majesty the Queen and the Royal Warrant Holders Association”.
Buckingham Palace said it would not “comment on individual companies”.
The company was established in 1939 and was purchased by its current owners, Harold and June Kenton, in 1982, for £20,000.
