Thanks dazzling, Queen Sylvia is wearing one of my favourite parure´s, the Cameo´s! Does anybody know what brooch she wore during the day, on her white coat? It is rather pretty. CP Victoria looks well, though the red dress seems to be recycled. The suit is elegant but the colour is a bit gloomy, but very appropriate for the autumn I suppose.
A pity that Madelaine and Carl-Philip didn´t attend, I assume they were too busy with their internships etc.

They did attend...the gala at least. Check Polfoto. But Madeleine´s dress isn´t worth it actually (IMHO)

Well, Carl-Philip makes up for that Lena . The dress of Madelaine seems to be one of those interchangeble dresses she and her sister used to wear a few years ago, still the colour is nice enough. What necklace is she wearing, the pictures aren´t too big so I have difficulties identifying it. Any idea why she isn´t wearing an order? Carl-Philip is wearing a Swedish one so I suppose Madelaine could have worn that one too. Not that I mind as these orders usually spoil a perfectly elegant dress.

The Swedish Prime Minister seems to have a pretty wife btw, the dress reminds me of the blue one that Mette-Marit wore in Madrid. What is her age?

I can't find similarities

Which tiaria is Madeleine wearing? For Victoria it's the Baden Fringe, isn't it?

Princess Madeleine is wearing the King Carl Gustav Fringe Tiara, gift to Queen Silvia a few years ago. Yes, Crown Princess Victoria is wearing the Baden Fringe Tiara. Both ladies are sporting their usual tiaras. Nothing new... As for the queen. OMG! One of my favorite parures of all time. Very, very regal. And there is not another one like it. Everyone looked beautiful. Recycled dresses, but I guess you can't have your cake and eat it too. LOL

The King, Queen and Crown Princess are wearing the sashes of the highest Bulgarian order (don't know the name). Prince carl Philip is also wearing that same order (around his neck) along with the Swedish order of the Seraphim. Princess Madeleine is wearing the badge of the Bulgarian order, in the middle of her dress, although she should wear it next to the Royal Family Order (The King's portrait), as Crown Princess Mary did during Mr. Parvanov's State Visit to Denmark.

Thanks for posting all the pics everyone! I think all look wonderful. Love to see Carl-Philip. Not one of my fave dresses of Madeleine's but the color kind of makes up for it! I have always liked Victoria's dress that she is wearing, nice choice for tonight. And the Queen, wow! She really looks very lovely!

I will certainly enjoy watching for pictures from this visit! Great start so far!
