Fashion designer Pär Engsheden was awarded the Habit's Honorary Prize 2020. Engsheden designed Victoria's wedding dress and has designed many other outfits for Victoria.
In this video among others Victoria's chambermaid/stylist Tina Törnquist pays a tribute to Pär Engsheden, Tina's speech starts at 0.20.
She says: "Oh Pär! How glad I am that you have received this honorary award, because you are such a worthy recipient of this. You're the best we have. After twelve years of working with you, yes we have worked together, I must say that it is always just as fun, always just as stimulating to work with you and your knowledge and your desire for fashion, clothes and genuine handicraft and what you do now that make it live on to younger abilities, for talented Swedish designers, where you spread this knowledge, desire and learning, it is worth its weight in gold. For the collaboration, the most important thing is to learn, and that is what we will continue with. Congratulations, and warm embrace!
Tina and Pär

One of Victoria's aide-de-camps, colonel Malin Persson (Air Base Wing Commander of Skaraborgs Flygflottilj F7 and commander of Såtenäs Garrison), gives tomorrow a lecture at the University of Skövde. She gives her view on Sweden's security situation and on leadership.
During her career, female role models have been important for Malin Persson and she is happy to be able to be that for other women, especially for the recruits at F 7.
- It is also a matter of course for me that women should be part of the Armed Forces.
Malin Persson started her career in the Air Force's combat command and air surveillance system just over thirty years ago and has since held several senior positions in the Air Force and in the Armed Forces' senior command. She has been deputy chief of staff for the Swedish Armed Forces' task force and head of the Swedish transport airline contribution to the UN operation MINUSMA in Mali.
Persson has a degree from the Ecole de Guerre Military School in Paris, with French as her study language. She has been one of Victoria's aide-de-camps since 2016.

There is a person who is always present in Victoria's everyday life, whether she works or is free, the aide-de-camp. The job is shared by twelve senior soldiers, men and women, who are in service, around the clock, one month in a row. And during that time, the one who is in service moves into Haga Palace.
The aide-de-camp is Victoria's right hand and the job is about everything from having contacts with Säpo and the Royal Stables, to making sure that the royal schedule does not break. The aide-de-camp has the ultimate responsibility for the practicality of the Crown Princess's life.
- Everything should flow. And it is the aide-de-camp's task that it will be so. Things can happen, and the aide-de-camp must always be available, says Jan Salestrand, the Chief of H.M.The King's Military Staff.
Salestrand said also that Victoria is an understanding boss. If she does not have a program and is only going to be at home at Haga, the aide-de-camp is given the opportunity to go home.

Victoria's former aide-de-camp, rear admiral Ewa Skoog Haslum, now the Chief of Navy, has been interviewed by Bjäre Nu newspaper.
Part of the interview:
We're a little curious about what it means to be an aide-de-camp to Victoria.
- The Crown Princess has twelve aide-de-camps, just like the King. You serve one month every year, and that means that you then move into Haga Palace. You are involved in the entire business, you are involved in everything operational that she carries out. The Crown Princess is a fantastic person. She's just the way she seems to be. Very wise, very genuine. I was an aide-de-camp for seven years. But when I was appointed admiral, I had to stop, such are the rules.

The the court's new website there is a section "Meet the employees"

One of them is court secretary Fredrik Brodin, Daniel's secretary
- I think there are few workplaces where our history and the modern meet so clearly.
Fredrik Brodin's position as court secretary involves work with everything from coordinating calendars and producing documentation to having contact with organizations, companies and authorities prior to Prince Daniel's official commitments.
He had not had any previous contact with the court when he started working at The Office of the Marshal of the Court nine years ago.
- I was the youngest at The Office of the Marshal of the Court when I was hired in 2012. My background is a bachelor's degree in economics and political science from the University of Uppsala. Before I started working at The Office of the Marshal of the Court, I had practiced at the European Parliament and trained as a reserve officer at the Swedish Defence University.

Any particular reason why her aides are rotated? Is this true for all members of the royal house?
 
Any particular reason why her aides are rotated? Is this true for all members of the royal house?

The King has had 12 aide-de-camps, who work one month a year, for a very long time. Victoria had at first three aide-de-camps but she has also had 12 aide-de-camps for many years.

The King and Crown Princess have twelve aide-de-camps each and they serve one month a year as aide-de-camps on duty.
Prince Carl Philip has two aide-de-camps. These aide-de-camps support the Prince throughout the year on occasions when he has official duties.
