Surprising and unusual, Expressen has an article about the Council of State and meeting the ministers. Not surpirising, that the most of the article is about Victoria's clothes, but the Minister for the Environment, Karolina Skog said about the event:
- We had a nice time! Everybody is concerned about climate and environmental issues, and both the King and the Crown Princess are both engaged and interested about those.
Victoria got the most attention because of her casual but elegant style, wearing a short blue lace blouse with matching pencil skirt, both from the swedish chain Lindex where they are sold for 299 and 349 SEK. Expressen's fashion expert Emma Danielsson hails that the Crown Princess receives Swedish Government in so simple and - relatively - cheap clothes.
- There is a tremendous interest in the royal family, not least for their clothes. All are very curious about what they dress themselves in. People are interested in brands and it gets more fun when there are clothes that you yourself as ordinary consumer have the opportunity to buy. It's great that she once again chose Swedish. She is such a great style icon in Sweden and internationally, so it will be a boost for Swedish fashion when the crown princess and the entire royal family chooses to showcase Swedish fashion. We saw the crown princess wear H & M twice in the King's 70th birthday. I think they are good at it. I would like to see more Swedish fashion on the royal family members. There has been a lot of lace this spring, it's a big trend right now. I think the style itself is quite dimmed and classical, but she looks very elegant and well-dressed.
For Lindex it is a real lift that Victoria chooses the chain's clothes at this official context.
- It's obviously great that Crown Princess Victoria chose to wear this lace blouse with attached skirt from our summer collection. We want to offer an inspiring fashion for all occasions and it is not the first time that the crown princess chooses to dress in Lindex. We hope that many are inspired by the Crown Princess's cool style and find their summer garments with us, writes communicator Kristina Hermansson in an email to Expressen.
