Default Royals in Costume

In the spirit of Halloween, here is a special thread of royals in costume, from the simple to the grand.


Guests to King Gustav and Queen Silvia's 25th wedding anniversary were asked to don period costumes, and what a step back in time the party was! Here, the King and Queen, their daughters Victoria and Madeleine and Princess Lillian pose in their lovely costumes.
