The exhibition Design for a Princess- The Lilian Look! is displayed at the Royal Palace in Stockholm August 29, 2015 - January 6, 2016.
The exhibition features around 30 garments that Princess Lilian wore for official duties and family celebrations over a 30-year period.
Pure, elegant, timeless style – with a sense of humour
The exhibition includes several different times of garments – evening gowns and dresses, as well as hats and bags – divided up into six categories: weddings, family celebrations, official duties, Nobel festivities, openings and charity work, and last but not least, humour.
The majority of the garments were created by the princess' designer Elizabeth Wondrak, but there are also Swedish designs, such as pieces by Göran Alfredsson/Thalia, and French prêt-à-porter clothing.
The princess' designer Elizabeth Wondrak was a clothing designer with a studio in London. She began working with the future Princess Lilian in the 1950s. She designed many of the princess' clothes for her official duties, including everything from gowns for Nobel festivities to dresses and coats.
Many of Elizabeth Wondrak's sketches have been preserved, including proposals for garments for Princess Lilian. Sketches were sent between London and Stockholm for approval or suggested alterations. Some of these sketches will also be included in the exhibition.
