Thanks for all the pictures! She was such a beautiful young woman (and is still very pretty, of course.) By the way, your avatar is very cute, Her Majesty.

 I love the first two dresses! They are so sixties-seventies and retro. Absolutely gorgeous, without being overly-trendy. It would be great to see these dresses in person.

Her_Majesty, I can't see white dress on Sonja.
Yellow gown looks fantastic!

There is a huge difference when the dresses on the mannequins, and when they were on Sonja. The first yellow dress was almost drab, but it looked fantastic on HM. The white and blue dresses were not that impressive in person, but look great on the mannequins.

Another picture of the yellow dress on display + the matching coat that belongs to it.
Sonja first wore this outfit for her pre-wedding ball in 1968.

It's a prefect coat to wear with a galadress!
