King Carl XVI Gustaf and Queen Silvia hosted tonight a State banquet at Stockholm's Royal Palace, in honour of French President Emmanuel Macron and French First Lady Brigitte Macron, who are paying a two-day State visit to the Nordic Kingdom.
Good news: President Macron has - at last! - managed to get a real white-tie jacket, instead of the morning-suit jacket which he infamously donned in Belgium, The Netherlands and Denmark...
Queen Silvia wore Empress Joséphine's Cameo Parure - a nice French touch in honour of her guests.
I am a bit puzzled by the (IMHO) unfortunate clash of colours between her (otherwise beautiful) deep-purple dress and the red sash of the French Order of the Legion of honour.
Crown Princess Victoria wore the Cut-Steel Feather Tiara and the big opal and diamond brooch which she wore recently for the Nobel gala dinner at the Royal Palace.
Princess Sofia, Duchess of Värmland, wore her "usual" tiara, topped with pearls, and the Baden Pearl Drop Brooch.
As visible at the back of this picture, Princess Christina, Mrs Magnusson, was also present, but I can not identify which jewels she was wearing:
