It is a pity she didn't take that sweater off for us to see the sleeves of this frock !

Yes, really, what a pitty. Wonder when finally MM is looking out for a fashion stylist. Unfortunately to say she is the worst dresses of all current crownprincesses.
Or she should have a call with her other " royal" collegues such as Queen Rania, Princesses Mary, Letizia and Maxima. These women do have style and grace. Something what I miss very much on MM

Girl you are representing Norway. You should better take care of what you are wearing, hair and make up.

Please use the Fashion thread if you want to discuss MM's style and fashion instead of doing it in this thread.


I have to say that I really like the CP couple's choice of patronages.
MM always looks really interested in all kind of social events. I admire her for her work dealing with HIV/Aids (the same goes for Haakon, of course).

The couple is going to have some more events the next days:

23.06.2009
"Byen bryr seg"
Their Royal Highnesses The Crown Prince and Crown Princess attend a reception in relation to the aids conference Young Leaders Summit II. Mayor Fabian Stang is hosting the event in Oslo City Hall (18:00).

23.06.2009
Garden concert
Their Royal Highnesses The Crown Prince and Crown Princess attend Aksept's annual garden concert on the occasion of the aids conference Young Leaders Summit II (19:00).

24.06.2009
Reception
Their Royal Highnesses The Crown Prince and Crown Princess host a reception on board the Royal Yacht Norway on the occasion of the aids conference Young Leaders Summit II (19:00).

Kongehuset.no has a little article dealing with Mette's involvement in HIV/Aids events during the last years:

nice pics! the event looked perfect and involved all sorts of activities - would have been lovely to attend!

what are the pics in the garden when they seem to be filming?

how many days did the event last? mette marit seems to have changed clothes quite a lot.

 

[sm1939]

thanks for posting Princess mette marit on you tube, great to hear her talking in english !

 

[fortimo]

Wow, I didn't know, that she speaks so good english. Maybe better, than Haakon. On youtube you can see more videos, they are really interesting!

I am very happy she´s NOT dressed like these ladies. MM stands for something else, for her work on a good cause.
Rania or Mary have been often criticized for being a fashion horse, spending too much tax payers money on their outfits. There might be some countries where you can get away with it, but I don´t think the Norwegians would be too fond about a princess who´s mad about clothes...
By the way, I like MM´s style. It´s always simple, but clean,elegant and unobtrusive.
Prcss Maximas clothes for instance are most of the time too much (too much fuss, frills, colour, etc.) Royalty shouldn´t dress like movie actresses from Hollywood!



Thanks for all these Beutiful photos!!! To me H and MM is the most modest and loveliest CP couple in europe! I´m so enthusiastic about them! And Marius is such a beautiful boy - his looks plus his close connection to the throne will make him one of the most elegibale bachelors in Norway one day.
