Name that Queen! Women's History Month Challenge

March is Women's History Month so I'm going to be posting some women's history challenges and here's the first. Make sure to leave your answers or thoughts in comments.

Which British Queen assumed the thrown at 18 and was so popular an entire age was named after her? 

Additional clues: She grew up under the Kensington System and her moral displays led to a fashion tradition that continues to effect us to this very day.

Now my friends who are women's history professors, give everyone a chance before you jump on this one. 

Enjoy!

    That's got to be Victoria. (Checking after guessing, Wikipedia confirms that Victoria was indeed crowned at age 18.)
