Oh how nice to see this gown again.The Q looks great. Must say the King looks very good too. I live the peals.
ReplyDeleteWater Prize or Flower Prize? Way too much floral action going on with the women's gowns. Queen Silvia's ensemble alone is overkill, although the style is nice and it fits her well. /Julie/
ReplyDeleteLa R genial;me recuerda un vestido de audrey herphun:su modelo... el de audrey era liso..
ReplyDeleteThe Queen is beautiful in her pink hued gown and her pink satin shoes. The King is very handsome but I so wish he would smile occasionally.
ReplyDeleteThe King does smile... occasionally, that we see. Apparently in private he is a real hoot and loves to laugh. Maybe it's just his public persona and his upbringing was to be serious in public. /Julie/
DeleteIn private our King is a completely different person but this is his serious look that shows when he 'works'.
DeleteAlthough it is such an overwhelming pattern, I think this dress looks lovely on Queen Silvia. I love the design with the overskirt and love the pink shoes. The dresses of the two who are greeting the Queen are very nice too, even though they are also flowery
ReplyDeleteAgree about the pattern and overskirt. Wonderful colors for her. Also beautiful flower print.

Queen Sylvia looks great the style and colour of the dress is lovely ;Gustav needs a hair cut,and he looks a little grumpy
ReplyDeleteQue de fleurs sur cette robe ; le très joli petit bouquet y est à peine visible !!!
ReplyDeleteLa reine Silvia est tout simplement époustouflante. Quelle élégance et quelle grâce! Jusque dans les accessoires, cette tenue est quasi parfaite, mon seul bémol étant le collier. Quant au roi, oui oui, il ne sourit pas souvent (malheureusement) mais il est quand même séduisant et toujours vêtu, lui aussi, avec élégance et ce, même dans ses tenues sport.
ReplyDeleteJe suis entièrement de votre avis au sujet du collier. Cette robe na pas besoin de bijoux.
DeleteOver-the-top romantic dress!
ReplyDeleteStockholms Stadshus ist eine strenge architektonische Schönheit. Das Blumenmeer auf Silvias Abendrobe passt dort wunderbar hin. Ich finde den Schnitt des Kleides so toll! Es steht ihr ausgezeichnet. Die Machart erinnert mich etwas an eine Robe, die Jean Simmons in "The Grass is Greener" trug. Dort war es zwar eine Hose anstatt Rock, aber mir gefällt dieser halbe Überrock einfach sehr.
ReplyDeleteQueen S. looks lovely; that floery dress is a good way to start to say goodbye to summer. Dr Jackie King looks stunning too and the colour of her dress is entirely appropriate to the nature of her work and to the spirit of the prize awarded to her.
ReplyDeleteGanz bezaubernd die Königin! !
ReplyDeleteeen hele elegante dame..
ReplyDeleteQueen Silvia looks stunning in her pink hued flowing gown. I love the wrap around skirt attached to the dress itself. Gives the gown a rather old world effect. She always shines at these formal occasions.
