Needle & Thread chose The Queen’s House and colonnades for a street style shoot for the grandeur and beautiful location which delivered on the day. Sophie was a huge support in the lead up to the shoot, ensuring everything was in place for the day of the shoot. Overall, the support received from the team helped to make the day run seamlessly. I would highly recommend The Queen’s House and colonnades as a shoot location! Needle and Thread, April 2022 Find out more about the Making of Netflix's Bridgerton at the Queen's House here!
