| On August 27, 2018, Monday, Swedish Queen Silvia visited Pensioners' Day 2018 event held at Ekebyhov Palace Park in Ekerö near Stockholm. The event is held for the 20th time this year. In the early years, the event took place as a picnic held by Queen Silvia at Drottningholm Park. Since 2000, Ekerö Municipality hosts Pensioners' Day event. |
And again: I love these traditional clothing. Especially Silvia looks so good wearing it!
ReplyDeleteShe is super cute.
ReplyDeleteQueen Silvia is amazing - a warm and dedicated person.
ReplyDeleteWhy the costume?
ReplyDeleteTraditional dress or garment is a symbol of your country, location within the country, social standing etc. In this case Sylvia is most probably wearing the traditional dress oh the area she is visiting to show her respect for the elderly residents. It is not a ‘costume’ because the word costume implies the garment is used for a masquerade or halloween). A country’s traditional garments are as highly regarded as the country’s flag. This is a concept that is hard to understand if one lives in a part of the world that does not have the tradition of national dress.
