Royals don finery for Princess Victoria of Sweden's wedding

[YunoYurbubson]

Anyone fancy gawping at rahrah frocks with me?

There are some horrors .

Crown Prince Frederik of Denmark gets the prize for dandiest chap.

I had a doll with a dress exactly like Queen Sonja of Norway's when I was little.

His trousers look too long...

Why do they all wear sashes? What do they mean?

Princess Madeleine is a bit of a lapse in judgement, but she looks pretty young so maybe we'll let her off.

This is a lovely dress.

Sophie, Countess of Wessex looks lovely - but wonder why she is wearing a sash when few (none?) of the other women are?

Why weren't we better represented? No offence to Edward but still....

I guess they're at the footy

Looks like some weird beauty pageant with all the crowns and sashes

Oh I'm not alone! Sorry Earlybird!

Yes, Sophie does look lovely.

This dress is lovely

Assume the sashes are to do with decorations - dame of the order of the garter or whatever?

Interested to see one guest described as a princess of Greece, thought that country had been a republic for decades. How long does it take before ex-Royals give up using their defunct titles?

On closer examination, I see alot of sashes (still don't understand the purpose though).

Most of the dresses are such lovely, subtle colours.

Shocking awful dresses on the whole!

edam - do you think the titles are simply honorary?

Must be a heathen, because I have never heard of some of the minor royals.

Spanish one FAR too skinny

Earlybird- you need to get yourself a subscription to Hello

Skinny but v.pretty.
Lovely frock.

Is she wearing pinstripe trousers under her chifon frock?

Spain

the bullfighter jacket. Doesn't even go with the dress

the sashes ruin the dresses. Men come off better. Japan's Prince Nauhito looks good.

NaRuhito

Dear lord, did no one think to tell Princess Mabel she should go with skirt or trousers, but not both? Who let her go our wearing that?

you forget there is a whole strata of these nob heads intermarrying and reliving 1980's prom queen moments.

off with their heads!

will that chap from jordon ever get used to the fact that his wife is a babe, he looks like he is about to explode with pride

oh gosh They've all been to TKMaxx

blooming awful most of them. I'm quite

can they not find something nicer to wear?

yy that tiny Spanish bird looks a bit on the ill side tbh but yes she is v pretty. I hope she is ok. She is wearing the oNLY nice frock.
