All the outfits are beautiful. They photograph well together.
 
Victoria looks great here. Her gown is beautiful - kind of retro or let's say romantic, but with a modern touch! I like it a lot!
 
One of her worst evening dresses ever - I had hoped that she would never repeat it.
Ghastly print, glossy shower curtain fabric, fussily overdecorated, embroidered and sequinned - designer Lars Wallin at his worst. In many ways the opposite of elegant.
With so many far superior brand new gowns in her closet, I don't know why she had to pick this one.
 
I don't think it's horrible. I like her hair down like this.
 
Looks like she pulled this get up off a curtain rod. Yuck.:eek:
 
It's OK, not too offensive to me. Not sure about shiny fabric.
 
I think Victoria looks beautiful. I like the dress style, but not the fabric/pattern. Her hair looks lovely, and the tiara is gorgeous! Great pictures.
 
not a fan of the gown but loved her make up and hairdo

I don't like the dress. Victoria has many dresses that look better then this one.
I don't like the fabric at all (it indeed reminds me of the fabric of a shower curtain). Not sure if I (dis)like the print.
I like the wide skirt though. Her hair was fine, although I always prefer updos with tiaras.

I do have to agree with you. It does remind me of a shower curtain. The color, print and texture of the dress is all quite wrong for Victoria. And for me her hair just looks half done.
 
:lol: The other day it was the horse blanket, now a shower curtain. Well, couldn't get more entertaining... I suppose.
 
Not her best gown, IMO. The shape is really lovely, but there is something about the fabric that I don´t like at all, and the print is very ugly...
Beautiful hairdo.

I agree,I dislike the print:eek:
 
The dress is recycled from the Luxembourg State Visit´s banquet in Stockholm, April 15, 2008:

The print is horrible and the shiny fabric isn't my cup of tea either... :nonono:
 
From the front, I liked the dress style, as I had mentioned previously. (although I am not a big fan of the print or color) but after seeing the dress from the back side, I am really disappointed. It looks like the skirt starts extending too high, instead of at her waist. Maybe it is just the angle of the photo, but I think unfortunately, the dress is quite unattractive when viewed from the rear.
 
What a let down to see Victoria in a gown of such poor craftsmanship, not to mention fabric…especially when she has been so radiant since the engagement and especially after those stunning photos of her and Daniel. Still, I really can't wait to see the wedding dress!
 
That white one in the 2nd pic is gorgeous!
 
Prices are in Swedish krona, so it's about 9000 euros for a Madeleine's dress.

this is an old article, but is it true? do these dresses cost as much as 67000 pounds?Prinsessornas miljongarderob – Så mycket kostar Victorias och Madeleines designerklänningar. | Sofis Mode | Aftonbladet

Haute couture can cost that much, but princesses rarely wear haute couture so no their dresses don't cost that. And if they do, the designers are ripping them off :lol:

The chanel couture that P. Caroline and daughter wear is very expensive but is probably a present from Karl Lagerfeld so in general the prices are much lower.
 
I could see some of the formal gowns being really expensive, but certainly not the day dresses they wear including the one pictured in the article.
