Troonopvolgers!: Galajurk prinses Mette-Marit. a lookback at the dress worn to the private dinner in Sweden to mark Carl Gustav's 60th birthday in 2006 - i liked this dress on Mette-Marit and the colour is very nice

 

[Turkish Delight]

I don't like dress but the color is very nice.

 

[queenofthelight]

This colour is too black for Mette-Marit. Though, black is one of the classical colours.

 

[Lumutqueen]

Mette Marit wore that to King Carl's 60th. I never realised. That doesn't suit Mette - Marit at all. I think she looks best in lighter colours. Or yes black but maybe a one shoulder silk or something not netting covering the arms.

I like the color, but the style doesn't really work for her, IMO. The netting on the arms is not very elegant.

 

[Lady Claire]

I hate the dress. I don't think this style would work on most people, the dress is just hideous. The color is good on her. I think she looks best in light colors, but she looks good in dark colors like the color of this dress as well. I would leave the dark colored dresses for night events though.

I am positive I have seen something like this on one of the Swedish Princesses or MM before.
Wonderful dress thank you for the picture.

Very beautiful dress, and she looks very thin in it !

 

[Incas]

Great colour, deep navy looks great on MM. The top of the gown looks strangely fussy.

 

[sgl]

I really like this dress. It is modern, and kind of reminds me of Chanel. The color is very pretty, and you are right, Rominet09-she does look thin.

 

[dazzling]

Beautiful dress. The cut slims MM and its nice tos ee her in something more fashionable rather than the pink or salmon/white dress she used to wear quite alot. Color works with MM nicely. Hair is nice but tiara looks lost between the curls.

I think the dress is by Alberta Ferretti

 

[sm1939]

really like the Blue dress , really nice shape to it, she looks lovely !!

 

[agami.pearl]

Really nice dress.

 

[Her_Majesty]

The dress is perect for her. The cut is very flattering (it indeed makes her look much more slender).

I think you are right, I had the same feeling when I saw the dress.
Wasn't it Madeleine who wore a very similar dress?

 

[PrincessofEurope]

great dress last night and it suited her figure

 

[Turkish Delight]

I like the dress, it looks very good on her!

 

[ANNIE_S]

I like a lot the col of the dress. It suits her.

 

[Josefine]

Yeah that jogs my memory. Think it was at a Noble Prize Ceremony.

I like her lovely midnight blue gown. It looks very pretty on her. I especially like the curls in her hair with my all-time favourtie tiara on the top of her head. I beleive she wore this gown before.

 

[ZUBIAUR]

I don´t like the evening dress.The colour is too dark

This was there pre-wedding portrait.

 

[ZUBIAUR]

I dislike this colour so much

I really loved that dress. I think it looked even better when she wore it for the pre-wedding events in the Netherlands in 2002. (IBL)

 

[magnik]

Do you remember her light blue ballerina gown from MarthaLouise's wedding?
Why she never recycle her again?

I agree. The color and style looked absolutely perfect on MM. I can't believe how young she and Haakon looked in their pre-wedding portrait.
