Queen Silvia's whole wardrobe for the state visit to the Netherlands, daywear and gala gowns, was impeccably elegant - quite flawless.
I wish the grey gown from the welcome state banquet had been photographed better - the photo opportunities provided by the Dutch Royals were very restricted.
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.
 
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:flowers:
 
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.
 
I love the outfit Queen Silvia wore today for Carl-philip's 30th :)Unfortunately i cannot post any links atm. x
 
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:
Picture details
 
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):

The suit worn by Queen Silvia is an older one by Natan, one of the first Natan outfits she has worn.
Natan indeed used the same pattern in a different color for one of Mathilde's outfits.
It's not a pattern I care for at all, and the combination with the lapel's border doesn't work for me, but it looks at least vaguely spring-like and thus fits the season:

Queen Silvia is seen at the 20-year anniversary of the Agrenska
centre in Gothenburg, Sweden, June 3, 2009.

The pink colour is always modern and fresh.:)
The combination of pink and white is always well-dressed.:previous:
 
I really like this red outfit on Queen Silvia. Red is a color that looks lovely with her complexion and hair color. The collar of the coat is kind of retro, and reminds me of Jackie Kennedy. Queen Silvia looks great in this style.
