Princess Madeleine’s best tiara moments

Since we didn’t have the Nobel events this year due to the pandemic, we are taking a look at each of the Swedish royal ladies’ best tiara moments. From her wedding to her fairytale tea party, we take a look at Princess Madeleine’s best moments in a tiara:

Madeleine stunned in her wedding gown by Valentino and her Modern Fringe Tiara when she wed Chris O’Neill in June 2013. The off the shoulder look with lace was really beautiful, and this is the tiara that Madeleine is seen most in. However, this was one time she wore the tiara that it really stood out; her happiness on the day only made it shine brighter. The tiara belongs to the Princess and was a gift from the King and Queen.

Princess Madeleine also looked fabulous at her sister, Crown Princess Victoria’s wedding when she wore the Connaught Tiara with a strapless blue Linda Nurk gown. She really looked every bit the Disney princess here – her outfit reminded me of Cinderella.

For the 2012 Nobel banquet, Princess Madeleine wore the Amethyst Parure Tiara; she chose to wear it in the form of a headband instead of on the top of her head like a tiara. I think this is what allowed her to pull the tiara off. It’s a hard tiara to make look good, but by wearing it as a headband, it fit her head perfectly and looked lovely on her dark brown hair.

Hands down the best tiara moment of Madeleine’s was her fairytale tea party at the Royal Palace with her patronage, Min Stora Dag (My Big Day), in February 2016. All the children had been confronted with serious illnesses. She showed up in her Nobel glamour – in the exact outfit she wore in December to the Nobel banquet – to have tea with the young children. Madeleine wore the Aquamarine Kokoshnik Tiara with her custom Fadi el Khoury gown.
