That gown has interesting detailing, a very long train, and must have looked quite grand in full length view.
I wonder who made it, the dress doesn't have the signature look of one of her regular favorite designers.

Boris, I thought the same! I would love to see the dress in the whole.
And as you said before you can not see from which designer it is. But I have to say that the dress is very stylish for a woman of her age. She has a very good sense of fashion like her daughters.

Beautiful! She looks gorgeous in this outfit. I also like her hair. It reminds me of Jackie O.

I usually dislike the repetitive designs of Natan/Edouard Vermeulen, and I don't really care for the bold button and seaming detail here either.
But this suit is far better made than most the clothes he designs for the BeNeLux ladies, the pale ice blue is a good color for Queen Silvia, and I agree that there's a little touch of Jackie O. about her overall look on this occasion.

She looks beautiful! I like the outfit & hair a lot.

Queen Silvia on Mainau Island last night, at the concert and exhibition opening of “Lennart Bernadotte – A hundred years”.
New fuchsia evening jacket, combined with older black lace fishtail skirt:

Next to an interesting exhibit, a historical gown, perhaps a dress that belonged to Count Lennart’s mother, Grand Duchess Maria Pavlovna of Russia:

I think this fucsia colour suits her very well

The jacket and the fishtale skirt complement each other surprisingly well, IMO. I like their elegance and the femininity created by the combination of the skirt's cut and the jacket's colour.

I love the fuchsia jacket and skirt combo on Silvia. Fuchsia looks beautiful on her. It really complements her skin tone and hair color. I like the collar of the jacket and the dramatic train on the skirt. She is one of the most elegantly-dressed queens of today, IMO.

It's a favorite coat, worn quite a lot over the past few years, but it definitely has timeless elegance.

Fuchsia suits well for the Queen.

This Yuki dress doesn't have quite the same amazing expertise of other dresses by design 'architect' Yuki, it's much simpler.
But the color is indeed great on Queen Silvia, the flattering trapeze silhouette has a good flow, and the draping of the top (it's not a shawl) has been re-done and looks much nicer here than it did last time, during the state visit to Italy:

Your quite right fuschia does look stunning on the Queen. Beautiful dress. x

She is one of the few ladies who can wear bright colours. I really love bright colours on her.

Yesterday Queen Silvia and King Carl Gustaf attend a wedding in Germany! Silvia wore a nice outfit, she has worn before. I really like this one. It really suits her and it makes her younger.
Here is a pic from yesterday:

And here a picture from the state visit in Denmark in 2007(unfortunately only a pic of the whole group):

It’s a lovely suit indeed, and along with the hat quite a perfect outfit to attend a spring wedding. The suit with its jacket in a very nice jacquard fabric and soft collar is by Carolina Herrera.
