They were the 10 best dressed on the red (black) carpet

Crown Princess Victoria

Crown Princess Victoria really offered a gala look we won’t soon forget and wasn’t shy when it came to the color choice either. In a neon yellow dress with an asymmetrical cut and with lots of pleats that created an incredible silhouette, it can’t be anything other than a full pot.

Princess Sofia and Prince Carl Philip

Princess Sofia went for a classic floral print long dress which may not have been as daring as Victoria’s choice of dress but a safe bet and incredibly beautiful. Prince Carl Philip wore a black suit, bow tie and patent leather shoes and looked well dressed as usual.

Emilia de Poret

The style icon Emilia de Poret is as always smartly dressed and shone brightly on the red carpet in her gold shimmering dress. She color-matched the entire look with shoes and jewelry, even the nails were gold, which led to a style hit.

Eva Dahlgren and Efva Attling

Eva Dahlgren and Efva Attling went for the black and white looks and we love it! Eva wore a black silk dress with a cape-like creation and accessorized with trendy transparent gloves while Efva went for the white look in an eye-catching dress in a stylish design and matched with white pearl shoes.

Angelique Kidjo

Let an award winner shine! Angelique Kidjo has won tonight’s Polar prize in the pop category and really went all in at the gala dinner! In a bronze shimmering sequin dress with a shorter train, she entered the red carpet with gusto.

Ysee

It was the year of the gold shimmer dresses this year! Even the artist Ysee wore a gold glittering creation on the evening’s red carpet and added many rings on her fingers which personalized the look, we like that!

Clara Hallencreutz and Fares Fares

Clara Hallencreutz and Fares Fares usually dresses nicely at a gala and also delivers this evening. Although not a full-on, typical gala look, Clara looks trendy in her black sequined outfit and Fares in his white blazer with a black unbuttoned shirt underneath.

Jenny and Niklas Strömstedt

Jenny Stromstedt wear a white two-piece look for the evening and look classy on the red carpet. With pointed low shoes, she also feels very trendy and the tube top also follows the prevailing fashion image. Niklas Strömstedt often looks smartly dressed and the tinted glasses add fashion status to them as well.

Anna Ternheim

We saw the artist in a slightly more subdued look Anna Ternheim i, but oh so pretty! The lashes almost make the whole look and the cool boots and sunglasses add for sure star status.

Sanna Nielsen

The artist Sanna Nielsen went for a classic gala look in a long dress. For designers Ida Sjöstedt the 3D dimensional flowers are a classic and her signature but for the fashion world the 3D flower is a super trend and really in demand. The daring slit together with the slightly higher collar create stylish opposites and that makes three wasps!
