Prince Carl Phillip & Princess Sofia attend Royal Swedish Academy of Engineering Sciences’ Formal Gathering tonight. This is their first joint engagement since the announcement of Sofia’s pregnancy and the first time Sofia is wearing her Order of the Seraphim. | 23rd October 2015

The dress looks like it is made from a very cheap material, it is too tight for such a solemn event, the colour doesn't suit her. And when she now finally has got her Order of the Seraphim, one would have of course hoped that she would have worn it on the right way. The Star is at the wrong place, she doesn't have the King's Miniature portrait and she obviously didn't have any brooches keeping the sash on it's place.

I think she looks lovely. I like the dress, colour, sparkle and style. Her hair looks very nice. The only things I'm not sure about are the long earrings.

I think the color is nice on her ...her makeup/hair look nice. Not crazy about the long earrings but everything looks appropriate. The dress is snug but it's not offensively so...we've seen the DoC wearing similarly snug clothing before.

I like the colour of this dress. The design is not too bad, but if there had been a slight train or just a little fuller at hem it would have looked better.

I like the hairdo and the earrings, the top part looks ok but when looking at the full view pictures this is not a good look at all. Too tight, wrong colour, the bottom part looks horrible.

Why is her sash so long? wouldn't someone be able to fix this for her?

I wonder why she wore the sash so long? If it was totally inappropriate, you'd think her husband would have told her. I'd have thought that she would have received instructions about the proper way to wear it at the time she received it, and if there were no specific requirements, she can wear it how she likes. Perhaps Sofia decided that, with that dress, the sash looked better longer.

I think that Sofia looks fine. I don't care for the colour of the dress and I'd prefer to have seen her in dark blue or some other darker colour, but that's just personal preference on my part. The dress is snug, but not obscenely tight. I also think it is a crepe fabric, which accounts for the "un-ironed" appearance of the bottom part of the skirt in one of the photos.

Nothing wrong with the dress itself but she needs other undergarments.
When it comes to the orders maybe she's been shown how to do it once and then dressed herself tonight and forgot about the finer details?

Based on the photos, Princess Sofia's dress is not flattering. The colour is so so.

She has a husband who has whole his life seen how his mother and sisters wear their orders and sashes. And the internet is full of photos of the queen, Victoria and Madeleine with orders and sashes, it shouldn't be too difficult for Sofia to find out how to wear them.

I don't think it's too tight she needs a longer slip under it though.

For some odd reason there are some royals (even British) that wear their Order sashes long like that. I'm used to seeing Queen Elizabeth II and other older royals wearing their Orders in a more fitted way.

Very nice peachy pink color for a brunette. The scoop neck and sleeves are perfect for her although the dress is a little tight all over.
You would think her devoted husband, born prince of Sweden would have some knowledge of women's sashes but alas, he is but a man.

I think Sofia looks very nice. We are starting to see a baby bump in some of the photos.
Could someone please explain the difference between the star and the miniature king photo.

the miniature photo of the King is the Royal Family Order. It's given to the female members of the Royal Family by the King. The Star on Sofia's shoulder is the Badge of the Order of the Seraphim & goes with the baby blue sash she is wearing. They are two separate things.

Thank you for the information. Can both be worn at the same time?
