tell me about it! he's blindingly good looking. some pictures of him make me swoon.

it's just astonishing to me that more media haven't picked up on him. I guess it would be different if he were the crownprince.

Wonderful pictures. Thank you all very much.:) The ladies certainly looked great in my opinion, although I must admit I wasn't too fond of Silvia's dress. Carl-Philip looked hot indeed

, and too bad there aren't more pictures of him. Hilarious captions Dennism.

Great job.:)

That is Countess Alice Trolle-Wachtmeister. She is the mistress of the robes.

Well, the countess is an adviser to the queen. The Mistress of the Robes is in charge of the ladies-in-waiting. She is the richest person in the household. Also it is said that she has more titles than anybody else in Sweden.

Countess Alice Trolle-Wachtmeister's official title is "överhovmästarinna" which is roughly translated as "Head of the court's ladies-in-waiting." She has some duties at state visits. An ancestor of her husband was överhovmästarinna at the court of Carl XV(19th century). :) Three others were Prime ministers. Actually two were Prime ministers for Justice(which was the one of the original titles for PM. One of whom did not actually take office) and another was Prime Minister for Foreign Affairs which was the other title. All 3 lived in the 19th century as well.

This is a great photo: http://www.theroyalforums.com/forums...0&d=1134278735 but could you imagine having a camera shoved in your face while you're trying to eat or have a conversation? Very scary!

The yearly fashion-grading from Aftonbladet. Done by Sofia Fahrman (I think I´ve made the one or another snappish comment on her and she has proven me right again.)
Madeleine: 4+
Madeleine is beaten of Mamma Silvia: 5+
Victoria: 3+
Lilian: 4+
Anitra Steen (Wife of prime minister Göran Persson): 3+
Laila Freivald (witch hunted minister for foreign affairs): 1-

Obviously here not many agreed on her choice of Silvia as best dressed. I would give Madeleine and Victoria the same grades (but the difference between 3+ and 4+ also isn´t very big)
It´s a little OT...but I´ve to say it. IMO it´s an extremely cheap shot to give Laila Freivald the worst possible grade just because she´s now criticised for her slow reaction in the Tsunami catastrophe. IMO she didn´t look bad. Surely not worse than Maud Olofsson, who got a 2+. I hate people, who can´t differ between the look of a person and the personal feelings of antipathy/sympathy they have. Even worse it is, when it´s done to impress other people

i couldn't believe it when i saw those "+"...
since i totally disagree with them

but i got to say one thing in her defence...at least she's right bout one thing...that Maud had some colour on her dress unlike Laila...

But looking at her good grades for "colourless" Madeleine, one can´t really work with this argument

Laila and Madeleine are even both blondes (even though Madeleine could have worked with her roots for the festivities

)

A selection of the pictures from Face to Face, by Stella Pictures - Part 1

(Finally a picture of Princess Christina and Tord Magnuson!)

Anita · #**236** 12-11-2005, 07:50 AM

Princess Madeleine was beautiful and very elegant . Her dress was one of the most beautiful I've seen on her !

GrandDuchess · #**237** 12-11-2005, 07:53 AM

A selection of the pictures from Face to Face, by Stella Pictures - Part 2

As you can see, Tord Magnuson (husband of Princess Christina) got to escort two ladies down the staircase! :)

but she says the reason why she doesnt give laila a higher mark is coz of the lack of colour... maybe...just maybe that's why maud got higher than laila?

Yes...yes...but haven´t you seen Mauds stuffed sausage dress?? I think it´s hard to deny, that Laila looked more elegant.
But I think we should let it be, and should simply agree, that Sofi is stupid, ok?

yaaaay! finally!! :)

altho..i think it looks like most of the other dresses she wear...a dark colour and something sparkling...and then her grey hair and the four button one..well no surprise there..but cant they "give" her the 4 button one to use as long as she wants? then it wont risk appearing on V or M...Christina is the only one who can wear it without looking ridicolous...abit like lillian and the six button one..

of course i've seen it... i was the first on here who described it as a stuffed sausage:p and sure laila looked more elegant...but no one in the media society seem to like her these days so... but ok.. i can agree on that..no problem..she's stupid
