They were at the Göteborg (Gothenburg) Horse Show!?!

Oh my word, I watched it on tv and I think I might know people who were there, but I didn't see them or haven't heard anything about it. Too bad. Perhaps they were there to support the Danes competing in the World Cup's Western European League's finals; Linnea Ericsson, Tomas Velin and Tina Lund (not that their support helped much...

).

If the Swedish royal children wouldn't have been at another location, his would've been the perfect time and place to meet them too, as old horse people - Princess Madeleine would've loved it I'm sure, and so would Crown Princess Victoria...

Great pictures! If you look at Mary and Laurentian separately, they look lovely, but if you look at them together, they look like they swapped lipsticks.

I find Laurentien dress flattering on her. She looks quite vibrant! As for Mary's dress, though she looks lovely I don't think the dress is flattering.

I am amazed! A gala dress I have actually seen Mary wearing before? I do think she looks loveley though, although the dressit is not one of my favourites. I just feel there is something missing with it.

They are wonderful photos! But, it does look like Mary and Laurentien swapped lipsticks.

I really like Laurentien's dress. It is very flattering and is a wonderful color on her. I think if Mary wrapped the silk or sating ribbons on her gown as they were done on the model (picture is in another thread...I'll have a look for it) it would look better. The way it is wrapped now is not very flattering.

Here's the link to the photo of the gown worn by the model at Alexander McQueen's show. Originally posted by Alexandria. http://www.theroyalforums.com/forums...chmentid=88707

Looking closely, I think they are wrapped the same way.

You know, I think you're right...

I think the dress looked better with the longer ribbon, but it's understandable why she had to shorten the ribbon. I think the dress looks quite regal on her although it isn't my fav dress. I didn't like it the first time I saw it, but like many of her outfits, it grew on me.

AnaM · #**358** 03-31-2005, 10:32 PM

Here is a picture that was posted by Lilydale on the GREMB. Mary looks completely at ease and beautiful!

hillary_nugent · #**359** 03-31-2005, 10:41 PM

The dress doesn't look too bad when you see it in full length but that choice of colour always brings to mind the image of a Cadbury chocolate bar...hehe

MoonlightRhapsody · #**360** 04-01-2005, 02:21 AM

Mary's dress is a repeat from her Australian trip. Laurentien's dress looks like the dress Letizia wore to Mary's wedding!
