On May 13, 2026, Queen Silvia of Sweden inaugurated the “Birds of Brazil” exhibition at the Swedish Museum of Natural History in Stockholm. The exhibition features 16 watercolor paintings by artist Jenevora Searight, along with a selection of Brazilian birds from the museum’s collections. The museum houses approximately 150,000 objects from Brazil in total.
In 2018, a fire destroyed large parts of the collections of the National Museum in Rio de Janeiro. As part of the efforts to help rebuild the museum, the Swedish Museum of Natural History in Stockholm donated more than 400 objects from Swedish and Scandinavian nature.
Weill Fuchsia Tweed Jacket
La Reine a sorti de son dressing cette veste tweed fuchsia qu’elle a combinée judicieusement à de la couleur noire !
ReplyDeleteAnother jacket from her ensembles by Weill. I never counted how many ensembles or jackets she has by that brand. I still like her wearing these which she can pair with a lot of colors. But some of them are becoming really too old now. I hope she'll found another style from another brand which suit her too. One is never too old to try a new style especially when one is thin and still looking good for a lady of her age.
ReplyDeleteThe Weill jackets have one feature that makes them so very wearable: the fabric is not only soft(er) than usual jackets, thereby very comfortable to wear, it is also highly resistant against being crinkled, it stays fresh and nice.
DeleteI would not say that these jackets are old, especially not this one with the fringe details. In any case, a classic style is never wrong, and these jackets definitively looks like a time less piece, and on top of this the colour is very becoming on the Queen.

DeleteOn the last picture the skirt is wrinkled. The tweed quality used for these two pieces, be it Chanel or Weill or another brand is light and comfortable, but it does wrinkle. I had a dress and a jacket once, I know what I am talking about and I almost forgot to mention that the fabric is very delicate and is easily damaged.
La Reine Sylvia porte plus élégamment les vestes Chanel ou pas que la princesse Caroline et sa fille Charlotte.
ReplyDeleteY a pas photos
La reine Sylvia ne porte pas Chanel mais Weill. La Princess Caroline possède et porte les tailleurs Chanel authentiques qui sont élégants. Sa fille Charlotte porte surtout les vêtements contemporains de Chanel, qui sont moins bien que les vêtements classiques qui ont été fabriqués dans le passé.
DeleteI love these Weill jacket, they have served a long time, proving again and again that they are perfect for how she wears them. Somebody wrote, that they are "becoming old" - I don't agree, because why should age count in this respect, I simply don't see it. Other ladies wear jackets from a wide-wide range of designers, but aren't they more or less all the same? double or single breasted - not much variability either ... My only complaint this time are the gold buttons in breast height, I find them very disturbing and wholly superfluous.
ReplyDeleteGood comment, well said.
DeleteQ Silvia always in style. Like this jacket and lovely color.

I don't think the Weill jackets are "too old." To me, they are just like the Chanel tweed jackets and skirts -- they are classics that will never go out of style. You can wear them to a thousand different events, basically for the rest of your life, and never look out of place.
