Great pics of the 09 Nobel Prize. Thank you. Her_Majesty
Afaik this was the first time that Madeleine wore the four buttons tiara. Imo she wore it really well. This was one of the few times (or even the only time) that I like the look of this tiara. Her hair is more wavy than Victorias, so the buttons don't stick out that much, which often gives this tiara a Mickey-Mouse-look.
I know that the tiara is unchanged. What I meant is, that the buttons tend to stick out more when worn by CP Victoria. I think this is due to Victoria's straighter hair, but maybe Madeleine also found a better angle to place the tiara.It is exactly the same the King's sisters wore it in the 60's. So that the frame is not visible only the buttons.

Here you goI would like to see better close-up of the headband.
I didn't notice any of the royals wearing a tiara?!At yesterday's gala dinner Madeleine was the only one who didn't wear a tiara. Instead she wore the same diamond necklace in her up-do which Victoria wore last year on the same occacion and which just appeared on new official photos of Victoria. It stood out more when worn in Victoria's straight hair and somehow got lost in Madeleine's curls. And I also wonder what the message behind this is. Doesn't she like to wear tiaras, or is she forced to stand back behind the CP?

Auntie, you are quoting my comment on last December's nobel dinner when Madeleine wore a diamond bracelet in her hair while the Queen, P. Victoria and Princess Christina wore tiaras.I didn't notice any of the royals wearing a tiara?!
oops, sorry!Auntie, you are quoting my comment on last December's nobel dinner when Madeleine wore a diamond bracelet in her hair while the Queen, P. Victoria and Princess Christina wore tiaras.
Of course no tiaras were worn at the pre-wedding dinner. (Unless you count the modern fringe tiara worn as necklace be P. Madeleine)
At the wedding today Madeleine looked stunning with the Connaught tiara, worn for the first time by her. Actually the royal website said that she is wearing her own tiara. Another sloppy mistake or was there a last minute change of tiaras? At least the colour of her gown would fit her own, very small aquamarine tiara.

Princess Madeleine is wearing what is known as the processional jewels (intågssmycket). The piece was given to the newly named Swedish Crown Princess Victoria for her procession into Stockholm following her wedding in Karlsruhe in 1881. Victoria was given the necklace by her husband, Crown Prince Gustaf (V). The necklace is made of Ceylon sapphires, baroque pearls and diamonds.
