I LOVE Amethysts!! That tiara is gorgeous!! And CP Victoria looks stunning wearing it. Especially with that gown! 💜💜💜

[@ITSONLYMEWATCHING]

My birthstone and doesn't get the glory it deserves, also sunstone is another that is glorious.

[@olderwiser64]

@@ITSONLYMEWATCHING Had to look up Sunstone. Gorgeous!

[@pinkpyjamas-ey6rw]

I was just about to say the same thing! I LOVE Amethysts too, my engagement ring is an antique amethyst surrounded by diamonds, it's so dear to me. But amythysts are always stunning imo.

[@jonasviking9768]

One thing that often is overlooked when discussed is the length of this event. The award ceremony starts at four in the afternoon and the banquet with the following private reception for the laureates rarely finishes before two at night. That means that the royal lady’s are starting to get their hair done around lunchtime. So for the Nobel price the female members of the royal family are in tiaras for at least twelve hours.......thats more than the length of three state banquets. One must wonder about the relief the ladies feel once the hairpins are finally taken out and the weight of the tiara is removed.

[@Bonilie]

A fact about Sofias tiara, it was not bought for her but "made", it started out as a necklace that the queen was given from a prince in the in the Thai royal family and for the wedding the Swedish king and queen sent it to jewellers in Thailand that remade it into a tiara. And another thing, the kings mom is not named Silvia (that's his wife) her name is Sibylla (Sibylle)

[@Talk_4_UK]

Crown Princess Victoria looked amazing!

[@kimslygh4758]

Amethyst tiara is the most stunning but I loved the red dress on Sofia….beautiful

[@Vid7872]

That purple gown and tiara are incredibly regal

[@melissam7379]

Sofias red gown is gorgeous! And so is her husband 😂

[@erinobrien8793]

Tiara Secret: ladies who may not have thick hair use hair pieces on the top of their heads that will secure the tiara (think braids that act as a platform/base for the tiara) or a “fall” that is used to hide the back of the tiara. Princess Sophie’s red gown had been made for her while she was pregnant so had to accommodate a changing body - the top and the length of the skirt in front. The new style is more flattering.

[@csr3282]

Princess Victoria is so sweet. She is able to show her goofy side, yet is regal, sporty, intelligent and a wonderful mother. The jewels are a bonus. Love Sweden.

[@joannemorris4451]

The amethyst is my birth stone. When I saw this beautiful amethyst tiara, I was gobsmacked that the tiara matched Princess Victoria's purple gown. The lover's knot tiara was my favorite British tiara, but now the amethyst tiara is now my new favorite.

[@nightowlslounge]

Amethyst is a very powerful stone! Those amethysts are very precious! 💜

[@gaiamorgosi7181]

I think that the Swedish RF has a lot of French connections also because of the first king and queen of Sweden after the 1830s, because there was no heir before and since they were afraid to be invaded by other countries, they told to a French soldier, Bernadotte (I don’t know why they chose him), to become the new Heir to the throne with his wife. So Bernadotte and Desiree are the beginning of the now Swedish RF, so it makes sense that some jewels have connections to France, also because the couple was CLOSE to the Emperor of the French.

[@RoyalFashionNews]

Yes, I did share that bit as well! It's the combination of everything, which makes everything super interesting! We also see this in some of the tiaras int he other Scandinavian families! Thanks for watching!

[@Dizfan]

One thing I'm always intrigued or interested in about Royal Jewels as far as Tiaras,Necklaces,etc. Is How Well Care they are kept after So many Years & Centuries. I think it's quite interesting to see The Royal Families touch them but everyone else is wearing White Gloves,etc. When it comes to the Swedish Royals. Out of The Other European Royals my Favorite Royal Women: Crown Princess Mary & CP Victoria. I like that age group in particular with The Wales's.

[@victoriaferris5410]

By far the amethyst tiara on princess Victoria with the purple dress. Ah, so beautiful. I have to say these women are gorgeous! Great looking families...

[@nightowlslounge]

7:21 she is an in law, and they bought her that tiara to wear. And it’s able to be changed. That’s the beauty of it. It really is a gorgeous tiara and she probably really loves it! It’s beautiful!

[@jonasviking9768]

She has been using other tiaras as well but it seems that the wedding tiara is her favorite. I guess it has a strong sentimental value for her and maybe it’s the most comfortable for her to wear as it was made to fit her head.

[@nightowlslounge]

@@jonasviking9768 it’s the prettiest one of all !

[@jonasviking9768]

Not sure if it is the most beautiful of tiaras, but certainly more versatile than most royal jewelry. With seven different toppers it’s easy to match the color of the gown worn. So far she has emeralds, pearls, diamonds, blue and brown topazes, citrines and turquoise’s to change in between.

[@EEmB]

Love you featuring the Swedish Royals! Btw, the name of the designer of Crown Princess Victoria's purple dress Camilla Thulin, is pronounced Tue-lean (like the beginning of Tuesday, and then the word lean). I think the placement of Princess Sofia's diadem for her wedding is placed like that to mimic the traditional Swedish bridal crown - Brudkrona. sv.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brudkrona

[@RoyalFashionNews]

Wow, thank you so much!! That is helpful! I love the Swedish royal tiaras, as they are very, very incredible!! Love to see them out and about!

Victoria’s dress was a recycle, she wore it to a state visit from the Dutch royalty

Sofias palmette Tiara wasn’t bought to her. Queen Silvia got an emerald necklace as a present from one of the princes of Thailand! The tiara is that necklace. They made it to a tiara and gifted it to Sofia.

[@heidifruchtl354]

I love jewelry. Most of the women in my family does. We have a close relationship with the jeweler whom we have been going to for over 30 years. My dad loved adding to each of our collections. He was researching costume tiaras after my daughter became princess of our Sons of Norway lodge. We received a box of tiaras, most of them were not in very good condition. Dad said that they were ugly and jumped on the computer and he was hunting for something that he liked and hoped that my daughter would like. Yes, he spoiled her. We found a tiara that was similar to what we were given, but kept it.

I think Brittany did a great job with this video, but mixing up the names of the kings mother and his wife is perhaps a bit of a problem. And as always the Braganza Tiara (named after the former royal household of Portugal) was once again called the brazanga.

[@AEKAskenburne]

To pronounce „Leuchtenberg“ like a German step by step: 1. Say „loin“ without the „n“ 2. Smile with a slightly opened mouth and breath out to pronounce the „ch“ 3. Say „ten“ (10) with the „t“ (yes, we Germans LOVE konsonants 😅) 4. Say „bear“ (🐻) with a „g“ at the end. Many thanks for this wonderful video!!! ❤❤❤

[@olofapfelbaum4687]

It’s wrong about Queen Sofias tiara. The queen says that it’s comfortable today. They made changes 1977. They made a new base, so today it’s no problems with it.

[@RoyalFashionNews]

She did change it, but it still isn't perfect! Certain construction does make a tiara a bit more challenging. Thanks for watching!!

[@RoyalFashionNews]

The sapphire tiara is very gorgeous, and I do like the amethyst one as well, though it's tricky sometimes. Thanks for watching!!

[@railiedouglas3018]

The one tiara I hoped to see belonging to the Swedish Royal Family that you didn’t feature for some reason was the Cameo Tiara worn by Crown Princess Victoria at her weekly. Mystified as to why you left it out.

[@benajaholdinghause6835]

I always wonder, how these wonderful tiaras are fixed in the hair... Could anybody explain it to me? 😅 Especially theese heavy ones...

[@jonasviking9768]

It’s more or less impossible to give one definite answer to your question, there are simply too many factors that play in here. Like when was the tiara in question construed, what hairstyle and length of hair does the lady have. The easiest way to get a clue to how the piece in question is fixed to the hairstyle is to find out when the pice of jewelry was made and then look for portraits dating from the same time. The tiaras was made to fit the hairstyle and fashion of it’s day and that’s the reason some tiaras look so strange in modern hairstyles. Some of the most obvious examples are the edwardian tiaras that are meant to be worn in a large poofy gibson-girl hairstyle (some prime examples in the swedish RF collection are the six button tiara and the edwardian ruby tiara). Often the older (early 19th century) tiaras was made to be sitting on a braid close to the wearers scalp and then sown to the braid, later in the century threading sections of hair throuh the tiara base and more or less braid the tiara into the hairstyle became more popular........i can go on and on but I guess i have already been harping on for far to long.

[@FinnishLapphund]

As the other reply says, it probably varies a bit from tiara to tiara, but I think the short answer is usually simply hairpins in different angles, and/or in combination with how the hair is styled as a base for the tiara. As I understand it, the fabric at the base of at least some tiaras, which e.g. is mentioned being of the wrong colour for Princess Madeleine's then blond hair at 17:51, can be/are used as something to attach/hook a hairpin to before the hairpin goes into the hair. But maybe I've gotten that all wrong, or it's only done with some of the tiaras...

[@jonasviking9768]

The fabric (often velvet) used to cover the base of some tiaras serve three purposes: making the tiara frame less visible, making the wearing of the tiara more comfortable and perhaps the most important one is minimizing the wear that hairpins would cause to the tiara. In the documentary “Kungliga smycken” one of the court hairdressers explain how he sometimes uses hairnet to “sew” tiaras to the hairstyles with hairpins but avoiding hairpins directly touching the tiara base. Some tiaras that has only one wearer have the base wrapped with hair from the wearer instead of fabric.

[@jh115]

CP Victoria has blue eyes in some pics and brown in others :) The gown is way too matronly for Sofia.

[@RoyalFashionNews]

Haha, you're getting her confused with her sister, Princess Madeleine! They definitely do look alike, especially when Madeleine went back to her more natural hair color. Madeleine has these bright blue eyes, and Victoria's are brown. I included some pictures and videos of her sister, as they all tend to wear different things. Thanks for watching!!

[@isorna2456]

Sorry but you do mix up princess Sibylla, our current king’s mother, with Silvia, the current queen and the king’s wife. I assume that is very confusing for those who are not too familiar with the Swedish royal family.

[@lemmysmolesmrs]

If I'm ever reincarnated I'd like to be a descendant of Crown Princess Victoria. The amethyst tiara would be a bonus inheritance if I got her smile.

[@Brembelia]

If the name is French, then the proper pronunciation for it is (burn-a-doe). My choice is CP Victoria. Her purple gown and amethyst tiara with her glossy dark hair was amazing. 👍 (I didn't care for the bow, flower, or whatever on the shoulder; looks awkward for me. I'd remove that and replace it with a pleat gathered semi-shawl on the shoulder that would continue to the floor front and back. (CP Victoria also looks fabulous in the CP fringe tiara. ❤️ that look.) I think they should shorten all of these gowns by 3" off the floor. If you watch closely you'll see Queen Sylvia stepping on her hem (11:06 plus) as she went up the stairs, and another lady had to hike her skirt so as not to step on her hem. I guess gowns were worn to the floor way back then to keep winter cold away from feet and legs. 🍃

[@EEmB]

No, she pronounces it correctly. It's Bern-a-dot. This family name is pronounced like that here and according to the Royal Family themselves.

[@Brembelia]

​@@EEmB Royal Swedish family, yes, but originally French, yes? My family is French. Lady Godot is not pronounced "Go-dot". It is pronounced "Go-doe".

[@jonasviking9768]

You are right in the french pronation of the name of the swedish royal family, however after two centuries as heads of state in Sweden they no longer use the french pronation in favor of the scandinavian way of pronouncing their family name. The British RF changed their family name from the german “Saxe-Coburg-Gotha” to the more English sounding Windsor.....it would be completely improper to address them by their original german name.....even more so if it’s done with a distinct german pronunciation.

[@jonasviking9768]

For practicality I completely agree with you about the length of the dresses. But for the dress code of white tie floor length is actually the most correct hemline. The marble staircase of the blue hall where the Nobel banquet is held every year is notoriously difficult to gracefully both ascend and descend...... the marble is so highly polished that it is quite slippery. The 1300 guests are actually informed about the somewhat precarious nature of the stairs....my guess is that some of the ladies attending would rather rise their hemlines a bit much rather than risk falling. Why they don’t just put a carpet down the stairs is beyond me, but I guess esthetics and tradition won over practically in this case.

[@nightowlslounge]

19:35 she needs the rubies!

[@jonasviking9768]

With seven different toppers so far it’s far from impossible that we will get to see this tiara with ruby’s in the future. So far she can wear it with both blue and brown topaz, emeralds, pearls, diamonds, citrines and turquoise’s
