The King's dinner? Almost sure there are 2 Tiara events back to back in Nobel week.

banivani · 11/12/2019 18:13

Haha forgot! I’m all about the Nobel dinner me.

Lunde · 11/12/2019 19:12

Some pictures of the Royal dresses at the Nobel dinner. CPV seems to be making a strong feminist statement

She does! I bloody love it. ❤️❤️❤️

Sofia and Madeleine both seem to have had similar ideas of romantic, floral, princess gowns

Well I got 2 out of 3 tiaras right

paradyning · 11/12/2019 20:21

Another wtf frock for CPV. Liking the red with pink shoes though.
It's all about illusion panels for Madeleine at the moment

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 11/12/2019 20:22

Having seen that flashback of the jumpsuit; it actually looks better with the coat.

SenecaFalls · 11/12/2019 20:24

CPV looks good in red, but on my, those sleeves. Not boring, though, that's for sure.

QueenOfTheAndals · 11/12/2019 20:29

Good on CPV for not being boring!

Kate tonight but it's not like we can see much.

What’s all this about the NCP chap leaving £50m for a new yacht??? They won’t seriously accept that, surely?

AppleKatie · 11/12/2019 20:57

She’s definitely wearing some jewels though!

QueenOfTheAndals · 11/12/2019 21:04

It's a lot of bling! Not sure if she's wearing a black dress or if that's a wrap.

At least it's not an ice blue dress. Hope we get to see it obs day.

We missed the Norwegians and HH. Sonja looks lovely in a red suit and MM hairband. Not as bling as there neighbours but classy

CPVs red dress is by the same designer who made Sara Danius’s very famous dresses and who also made her own wedding dress. This red one is def an echo of the Danius dresses and thus def a political feminist statement, not to mention the telltale pussy bow. Talk about messages through dressing, this is as subtle as a kick in the crotch.

QueenOfTheAndals · 11/12/2019 21:26

Kate's dress is a navy velvet McQueen.

Love the gowns in that link @banivani

They’re fab aren’t they. Hoping to see a full length picture of DoC later, since I don’t care that much about the bling ;)

JosephineDeBeauharnais · 11/12/2019 21:42

Why is the pussy bow a feminist statement? Is this a new thing or something that has passed me by?

itswinetime · 11/12/2019 21:42

All that bling and no proper photos! That's not very festive is it Kate Crown Wink It's nice to see her in some sparkle though even if we are still stick with the same tiara!

At least we have had Nobel dinner to tide us over and some lovely gowns on your link bavnivani too have to get our fix where we can I suppose.

banivani · 11/12/2019 21:59

@JosephineDeBeauharnais it’s a particularly Swedish thing since Sara Danius tried to reform the Swedish Academy and was manoeuvred out

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 11/12/2019 22:06

William is looking very handsome!

Kate is wearing quite a simple, structured dress to show off the sash.
I suspect it’s McQueen

Wow, go CPV. Am loving the fashion statement - in both senses!

The DoC also looks nice, as far as I can tell. V blingy and elegant. But CPV wins for me!
