After the 2017 Nobels in Stockholm yesterday, we have selected our favorite looks from the evening (one of, if not THE most glamorous of the royal calendar).
Sarah: The favorite for me was Sofia. I loved the style of her gown. I loved the details of buttons on the sleeves and how she kept the jewels matching, which complemented each other so well. I love how it was a muted lace material. I adored how it just flowed out and just looked so princess like. I haven't liked Ida Lanto's pieces for her in the past, but this was stunning. Also, I really loved the surprise of the pearls on the tiara. I didn't see that coming, so it was nice to see that they can still surprise us in the jewel department from time to time!
Heaven: My favorite was Madeleine for the third year in a row! I'm not a big fan of the amethysts, but there's no one who wears them better than she does. I was pleased to see the whole parure, too. What made me love the look was how every little detail was tied together; it was so on point! The nail polish, the purple details in the lace of her dress, the hair (I love this kind of updo), the clutch matching the color of the skirt and the flowy skirt were all just so wonderful. I like that this is a real maternity gown, but it's not super fitted or a tent dress; it flatters her beautifully and the color looks amazing against her skin tone and with the amethysts.
Laura: I loved Madeleine's look. The amethysts are a very beautiful stone but a tough tiara to wear. Madeleine wore them the best I've ever seen. I thought the Seraphine gown was exquisite. You can really tell that the brand is the master of maternity wear. I really loved how there were hints of purple in the gown to work well with the tiara, but it also contrasted, too. I love, love, love that she wore the amethyst necklace, earrings, and brooch with it! Finally, this feels like a really timeless look. I have a feeling 10, 20, etc. years from now I will look at this and still think it's stunning.

Brittani: I expected to say that Princess Madeleine was my favorite. However, for the first time in a long time, I wasn't fond of her gown. I absolutely adored Princess Sofia's gown. It was gorgeous! It is definitely my favorite of hers so far during her time as a royal. The color might have been too pale for her skin tone but I think the overall gown made up for it. The lace and glitter design was so delicate and feminine. She kept her jewelry simple and let the dress do the talking. I also loved how she changed out the emeralds on her wedding tiara to pearls. To be honest, I like the tiara with the pearls better than the emeralds. I hope she chooses to wear the tiara like that more in the future!
