This evening Mette-Marit made a suprise visit to see the show of one of her favourite Norwegian designers, the design duo Arne & Carlos: http://www.arne-carlos.com/ Two fashion editors was interviewd and they said they were happy she was there and that she enjoyed the show. And also that she wears more norwegian clothes than the main press gives her credit for. Mette-Marit did not talk to the press.

The show was held inside a train at Oslo train station. She wore jeans and a green shirt, she looked visible pregnant. Tomorrow she will be present for the official opening of Oslo fashion week: http://www.oslofashionweek.com/

Picture from VG and dagbladet, here she is pictured with the designers, more picture from the show here

that's a beautiful shirt that one mm is wearing. green really suits her. i'm also really happy she is using clothes by more norwegian designers to promote them around the world... that prada obsession is chic but probably not the most recomended thing to use being a princess.
 
I also like her shirt, beautiful!
 
From Valdres to Vogue, fashion exhibition

According to VG paper edition Mette-Marit will open this exhibition, they also had a two page story on it, it is about unknown Norwegian fashion designers that has created for them selves good careers in London and abroad, one of them have worked as an assistant for Alexander McQueen, but in Norway they are hardly known and there is little interest from any part of society to invest in them, and then they compare it with how willing "rich uncles" are to invest in Sports (read soccer:rolleyes: ) In Norway we forinstance produce special clothes for oil workes and theese designers wish to start to cooperate with theese niche producers to launch it on the international market as something typically Norweigan, but they lack the money to get it started. This exhibition is though about fashion, about combining modern fashion with traditional old techniques, its arranged by Norske Form and Norwegian Design Council which Mette-Marit is patron of.

09.06.2006 - 30.07.2006 'From Valdres to Vogue - Contemporary Norwegian Fashion Design'

Norske motedesignere markere seg stadig tydeligere hjemme og i utlandet. Utstillingen er et samarbeid mellom Norsk Form og Norsk Designråd og presenterer et knippe av våre norske designtalenter. Publikum får se det beste innen norsk mote, spennende og utradisjonelt arrangert - i en leken og lærerik utstilling. fra tegnebordet, gjennom inspirasjon og prosess, til spennende kreasjoner som skaper bølger i motemedia.

Mette-Marit opens the exhibition from Valdres to vogue at the norwegian center for design and architecture, I had to resize them since they are huge, but you can see them even bigger here. The 4th pictures shows here with Arne & Carlos (they work from Valdres so I guess they are part of the reason for the name of the exhibition)

Thank you as always Larzen for the pictures and info. Thank you Purple Platinum for the pictures, killer heels, I want them!:D
 
Those heels are interesting pity I'd never be able to walk in them
 
i agree regina. mette marit is looking trully beautiful lately and she looks wonderful in that picture. there's something in her smile that gives a great impression of her.
 
I like MM outfit,colors are very nicely coordinated. But I would prefer her with her hair up.:)
 
Mette-Marit during an unoffical meeting at the magazine Henne in january where the nominated for the design award Nåløyet - "the Needle eye" was decided upon, the award goes to the best Norwegian designer in 2006

link to article
Mette-Marit blir prisutdeler - Henne.no : Nåløyet

She is wearing a not-nice-at-all outfit but it seems to go well with the people of the jury who is supposed to be the top of Norwegian fashion:ermm: The man sitting is one of Norways best designers Kjell Torheim, he is head of the jury, he has made many dresses and outfits for Queen Sonja (and I belive Princess Ragnhild and Astrid as well)

Mette-Marit is not part of the jury, but she will hand out the award on the 13.2 at the Norwegian Center for Design and Architecture

The 10 designers nominated for The needle Eye

*************
BTW Im curious why they removed Haakon from the trip to New York, last week they were both shedueled to go, and now it is just her, and he has nothing else official on his agenda for now that day, or the day before.

Mette-Marit and 13 Norwegian designers are on the cover of HENNE in a promotion of Norwegian design that is out next week. It is (of course) taken by Morten Krogvoll, he also did solo covers with Märtha and Sonja for HENNE some years ago, there are interviews with all the designers and Mette-Marit as well

I dont much care for royals as cover girls, but here is the picture anyhow

ImageShack - Hosting :: objfb9.jpg

The designers are
Peter Dundas (Ungaro), Peder Børresen (Moods of Norway), Karina Kjenner Titze (Undorn), Arne Nerjordet (Arne & Carlos), Siv Støldal (Siv Støldal), Leila Hafzi (Leila Hafzi), Carlos Zachrison (Arne & Carlos), Tina Steffenakk Hermansen (TSH), Peter Løchstøer (Peter Løchstøer), Christine DiBiagio (Rett og Slett), Ida Gullhav (Ida Gullhav), Synnøve Mo (Synnøve Mo) og Trine Rødli Gjørtz (Rett og Slett).
 
Absolutely beautiful color on her!!! She should really try wearing that shade of green more often! Bravo to the dress designer!
 
She looks really good it is nice she is supporting the fashion industry and bringing more attention to them.
 
Wow! She looks so fashionable! I love the dress. Maybe M-M is really going to change up her style. It seems that she has been searching for her own style in recent years so maybe this support that she's giving to the fashion industry will help her really develop her own fashion sense.

Can't wait to see the galadress of Mette-Marit next week, will it be the 'new MM or the old one'..
 
it seems that she doesn't think about creating her own style, like letizia or mary. Mette-Marit just wants us to see her personality, but she is a public person and needs to be in vogue, at least.
i think she will not wear a new dress on the celebrations :sad:

I don't think there is a "new Mette-Marit" just because she chose another colour then black or blue for this magazine cover. ;)
I think it's just about the fact that she likes wearing fashion by Norwegian Designers (like the green maternity dress she wore in GB when she expected Magnus).
I agree that the dress looks beautiful and I also cross my fingers to see her wearing it one day (especially because the colour suits her alot).
Maybe MM will finish her all-black-and-dark fashion soon. :lol:
 
I have the Henne magazine with several lovely pics of Mette-Marit. I will try to scan them tomorrow.

I think she looks beautiful, I really love the color of the dress she is wearing. I would love to see her in more color other then black, blue and biege, she is such a natural beauty, I would to see her show if off more.:flowers:
 
I too loved her in that green dress. I know she said that she favors dark colors, but she'd really be better suited wearing a palatte of different colors. She can pull it off.
 
This green dress from the magazine cover looks alike the pink dress she wore for the last gala.
Is it by the same designer?

Yes, Se og hør comfirms the white and pink dress is also by Karina Kjenner Titze/undorn. Not so many points for originality if you ask me, I like the green one better.
 
I loved the green dress before, but the purple looks outstanding on her! Wonderful colors the designers picked for her! She is stunning, absolutely beautiful.

There is an - according to the magazine - exlusive interview with CP Mette-Marit on Norwegian fashion. CP Mette-Marit is very interested in Norwegian design and is protector of it. In the article she talks about the state of Norwegian fashion, how it compares to Sweden and Denmark (which is further ahead when it comes to design) and so on.

The green dress she wears were specially designed for the photo shoot. The designer is newcommer Karina Kjenner Titze. The other photos are also very nice. All done by reknown photographer Morten Krogvold.

Note! The last page is missing. Something went wrong with the scanning. I'll try to fix it.

thanks so much for those lovely photos. i adore the black and white one of the princess, she looks gorgeous but all of them look regal. mette marit seems to be a good person to work with for these kind of photoshoots. i absolutely love her official portraits or other photoshoots she did for mario testino, vanity fair, elle or this one for henne.
