The Nobel Prize 2002 - 2012


If you have answers, please help by responding to the unanswered posts.
Such a elegant ceremony. I wish the British royals had a ceremony like this where they are dressed in their regalia and hand out awards to the people.
 
Well, Dman, thankfully Brittsh royals aren't the only royal family around and SRF takes Nobel Prize very seriously. ;)
 
I love all the dresses and jewels. Victoria in green rocks!
Not sure if the amethyst tiara sits well on Madde's head though. Thank you all for the photos and links so far! :flowers:
 
I'm not entirely sure, but I think that I spotted countess Bettina Bernadotte at some point. Is she attending?
 
Wow - full sparkling Leuchtenberg on Queen Silvia
Princess Madeleine - the Amethyst - :) - I was so hoping for it, but actually with Victoria.
Victoria is somehow disappointing for me ..... last time a new cut-steel and now the 4 button - why oh why couldn't it be the Connaught?
It looks like Madeleine is getting all the fun with borrowing tiaras?:ermm:
 
I thought everyone looked great. The jewels just danced with the light and I will have to go back and view the ceremony all over again because I really enjoyed the music. The second selection was my favorite.

Actually, last year Victoria wore the 6-Button. It was in 2010 that Victoria wore the Cut Steel.

I managed to get a great screenshot of the brooch in Victoria's hair:

I love Victoria dearly but honestly the hairstyle and the dark eye makeup don't suit her at all. She looks that different with it.
 
I love all the dresses. The two princesses looked absolutely stunning in their dresses and tiaras. I loved the green dress - very glamour. I loved Madeleine's hair and how she wore her tiara. Simply beautiful. And the queen? Always a lady - always stylish and always beautiful.
 
A very beautiful shot of Victoria. I like the royal make sure they put these jewels to use and are creative with them too.

I believe Mo Yan received the Nobel Prize for Literature. The Nobel organization in Sweden does not award the Nobel Peace Prize. That is handed out by the Norwegians.

Excellent photos,not sure about Prince Carl Philip's beard!

I'm not sure about his hair either. It always looks a little messy.

Oh I just love the Nobel ceremony, such a solemn and festive event :flowers:

I really liked Queen Silvia's dress. Victoria's is ok but she has worn better dresses. I also would have loved the amethyst tiara on her instead of Madeleine. I'm not so fond of those braids on her, but enough with the complaining, overall she looked good as did Madeleine.
And I'm usually not that much of a fan of Carl Philip appearance-wise, but I actually really liked his new beard :whistling:

Ah, I see, thanks for the extra information :). Is it only the Norwegians who hand out the prizes?

The Swede's hand out the Nobel Prizes in Literature, Chemistry, Physics, Economics, and Physiology or Medicine in a ceremony in Stockholm. The Norwegians hand out the Nobel Peace Prize in a ceremony in Oslo.

Thanks for telling me that information :).
 
I usually love the hair pieces Victoria wears but today's was too fake looking IMO. It looked like it was knitted out of wool and just stuck on the back of her head. I also don't think that emerald brooch looked good in the bun either, lovely as it is.
 
Princess Madeleine - the Amethyst
I wonder if there was a thought about Madeleine wearing the amethysts, as her escort at the dinner, the Nobel laureate in physiology Shinya Yamanaka, was wearing the Japanese Order of Culture with its purple ribbon.
