How can one be so damn good in finding designer pieces?! You are fantastic, Larzen
When you would work for the swedish tabloids (Expressobladet, Svensk dam Tidning...), Victoria would maybe stop to dress so boring, because she would realise, that ppl realise, that (even) her boring and modest looking clothes costed a pretty penny!

Queen Silvias suit is by Carolina Herrera, atleast that has been written in Norwegian glossys, i cant find it in the collection but the 2003-4 wintercollection has alot of satin and suits with similar cut. A very beautiful collection IMO and many things that would look good on Victoria as well

I think they do wear alot of designer clothes, just not the "famous" ones, and clothes/bags with clear signs like logos etc.
The only one I can think of is Madeleine with her LV bag :)

Hat by Philip Treacy (Mette-Marit has a similar one) I usually hate his hats and sometimes I think the royals wears his hats just because he is the most famous and expensive hat maker there is, but I quite like Victorias hat, not as matronly as many of her other flowepots and flying soucers.

Her suits which I really like is by Lars Wahlin, wonderfully tailored and not at all boxy, he should make some more for her.

transaltion later

Han gör kläderna som gör Victoria




Lars Wallin är en av de designer Victoria anlitar.
- Det är jättekul och en stor ära. Och det är kul när man kan vara med och påverka den offentliga stilen, säger han.

- När det gäller offentliga personer är designen sällan med. Det är lite mer ren och enkel form. Nu är det mer mode i kronprinsessas aftonklänning.
Lars Wallin och kronprinsessan för en kontinuerlig dialog under skapandet av kläderna.
- Kunden är alltid min inspirationskälla. Det är det som är utmaningen, att plocka fram personligheten hos kunden med hjälp av mitt formspråk.

"Olika förpliktelser"
Han vill inte i detalj gå in på hur han tänker när han skapar till just Victoria.
- Om jag säger så här. Man skulle inte göra samma typ av klänning till Madeleine som man gör till Victoria. Men Madeleine och Victoria har olika förpliktelser, säger han.
Att skapa kläder till en kunglighet är inte det lättaste, enligt Wallin.
- Det finns vissa regler att följa och det finns särskilda omständigheter som kläderna ska bäras i som man måste ta hänsyn till. Det kan vara religion i landet som besöks eller vilken tid på dagen det är. Så det är inte bara att göra saker som man tycker är kul.

the shoes are acutally alright, though i wouldn't have worn them with what victoria did. i would have worn them with jeans or something at a smart-casual event.

I think personally I wouldn´t choose a creation of him. While he has lovely ideas, he often "includes" one thing (often it´s the shiny colour) that ruins the dress more or less.

I agree. The two dresses, plus the purple/red one she wore in Australia, all look similar. Sometimes shiny material is too "in your face" and it seems as if he uses a lot of it. While I liked the embroidery part of the purple/red dress, the others don't look very nice and too 'old' for her. That is just my opinion.
