Not a fan of the dress. It would have looked good as a solid color.

In fact, it’s not a print but all-over embroidery – see this close up from a previous occasion:

And today’s outfit again – also note the Hermès Kelly bag. I’m not a fan of greige on Queen Silvia, it’s the one color she should avoid, but so should everyone else over the age of forty.

Much better photo, Boris, thank you! Unfortunately, the embroidery darkens the gown and gives it too busy a look. I do like the mint green solid color below it.
And I love her handbag, but would have liked to see her daytime outfit in a stronger color.

What a pleasure to view all Silvia's lovely outfits. The yellow suit, white coat and dress and great white hat, charming lavendar gown with perfect embroidered bolero. Her sweetheart neckline cocktail suit, green embroidered gown with the terrific hem and neckline. All so nicely tailored and paired with just the right jewlry. Only one I didn't love was the greige dress and jacket. Only because the jacket was longer and not as fitted as her other suits, which I think suits her petite figure better. However, I'm sure it looked lovely in person.

Only the bolero jacket is new, the sleeveless dress was first worn in Luxembourg back in 2001 - pic:

No, it was always a pale lavender... in the Luxembourg pic, Maria Teresa is in white, and you surely see the difference.

YES!! We have a winner in the Mature Queen Fashion Style-Off! Wonderful color that does great things for her hair and complexion. Perfect length, not dowdy or fusty, nice tailoring and the jewelry is just right for the whole combo. Looks fab!

A nice look in pink for Queen Silvia during the birthday photo session for Crown Princess Victoria at Solliden on July 14, 2012.
I also like the matching scarf.

I like the pink suit, as well. I'm curious about the black cuff hanging out of her jacket sleeve. Is it a pink blouse with black trim? She is wearing a pretty scarf and has tied it in one of those styles I can never manage to figure out. lol...
