Queen Silvia's Fashion and Style Part 4: April 2013 - July 2015

^You're right about the light. Dresses like this never look good in pictures, precisely because of the light.
Well, it isn't her best dress, that's for sure.

 

[HereditaryPrincess]

Silvia herself looks quite elegant and the colour of the dress is alright, but the sparkles are a bit much and makes it look like a glitter explosion or 'a dogs dinner' (perhaps this is a little harsh, but I couldn't find another more appropriate phrase to use here) IMO. I don't think the dress is deeply unattractive or ugly however, it's just not one of my favourites - she has worn better dresses, in other words.

Queen Silvia on Thursday evening at a charity gala dinner for World Childhood Foundation at the Grand Hotel. I have never liked this dress. It doesn't suit the queen at all.

I like the glittering part but this gown is awful.

This gown is absolutely stunning. I am so glad she finally repeated it from the 2010 Nobel Prizes. The gown was especially amazing with the exquisite sapphire jewels. The color is so beautiful and a great timeless design. It's magnificent in it's simplicity. This gown is just regal and majestic.

Too many buttons but I like it... It's amazing how this family can recycle old outifits!

Well done to Silvia for using clothes 21 years after they were bought!

Well done to Silvia for using clothes 21 years after they were bought!

First: the Blazer is still somehow actual
Second: congratulations for being so well in shape, Your Majesty!

Silvia looks wonderful and I love that shade of blue on her, though I have to agree with LadyFinn on the buttons. They're a little unnecessary IMO and look awkward and out of place.

The snake print gown is ugly, why would anyone think this gown is attractive.

And honestly, given her future DIL's nickname (and photos), I am quite shocked that she wore snake print.

I love the suit! It's a great color combination.

 

[udyusa]

Lovely color, but way too many gold buttons!

 

[Sarahbellar]

Silvia also wore that suit for photos in the Bernadotte Library for official photos around 1993. The photos were included in the book Bilder ur Mitt Liv.

I love the red coat, it's very elegant.

 

[SElizabeth]

Love that red coat and the pillbox hat, in red with black tulle and it sits on her head perfectly. She is looking very elegant and chic today!

Love the jewels but never liked that gold outfit.

Love the jewels but never liked that gold outfit.

I believe that it is not a dress just a top and a skirt. She has worn the top numerous times with other skirts which is what makes me think it is separate.

Love both!

What do we want or expect the Queen to wear to the first Nobel evening? As she always uses a dress worn earlier could we just go back this thread and find what we want to see again or not to see again.

Maybe the gown from Crown Princess Victorias wedding or Princess Madeleines wedding

 

[SElizabeth]

I would love to see her in something red with the big guns tiara, red looks so great with her dark hair and then ruby earrings....and a glass slipper.....

Red is lovely on the Queen, but I doubt it will be a red gown this year since it was red last year!

 

[Sarahbellar]

Does anybody recognize the suit that the Queen wore today in France? I do not remember seeing it before.

I highly doubt the Queen will ever repeat those gowns.

 

[Kingen]

I highly doubt the Queen will ever repeat those gowns.

Hehe yes i think that you might be right. At least I don't think she will use the dress from Victorias wedding. And I kind of hope she don't use the own from Madeleines wedding, I don't really like that one...

Love it, even if she does look like an aquarium. Looked better with the hat.

 

[HereditaryPrincess]

The colour is wonderful on Silvia, though the fabric is a little too shiny for me and almost reminds me of Christmas wrapping paper.

Agreed- loved the color, but far too shiny!
