All of the delicate details behind Crown Princess Victoria of Sweden's gown at the 2024 Nobel Gala

Crown Princess Victoria of Sweden has an unrivalled reputation for delivering royally refined gala gowns, especially at the Nobel Prize ceremonies. Whether reviving Queen Silvia’s vintage treasures – like the 1995 Nina Ricci ball gown originally worn by the Queen to the Nobel Gala that same year – or embracing modern design, as with last year’s regal pleated purple gown by Camilla Thulin, crowned with the Napoleonic Amethyst Parure tiara, the Crown Princess' style is always a highlight.

This year, the Crown Princess dazzled on the steps of the Stockholm Concert Hall in a sweeping chiffon creation by Christer Lindarw, famed designer and After Dark performer. Lindarw, who also performed at Victoria’s 40th birthday celebration seven years ago, crafted a statuesque gown that came to life under the spotlights. The voluminous skirt, made from cascading layers of tulle in shades of grey, lavender, and black, created a striking gunmetal effect. In contrast, the draped bodice featured sparkling stones and sheer fabric that cascaded off the shoulders, anchored by a glittering brooch.
