Congratulations are in order for Princess Sofia of Sweden, who last week revealed that she is pregnant with her fourth child.
Royal maternity dressing is always a hot topic in the fashion realm, so we were patiently waiting to see how the stylish Swede would be styling up her bump during her pregnancy, and suffice it to say she’s already set the bar for high-octane elegance.
Stepping out at an Opera performance to mark the opening of the National Assembly, Sofia - who is married to Prince Carl Phillip of Sweden stunned in a decadent red velvet wraparound midi dress from Finnish label Andiata.
She carried a tonal Aristographic Glittered Plexiglass Evening Clutch by Gucci, and finished off with a pair of Louboutin’s classic Kate 100 court heels in nude, with the brand’s signature red sole matching the colour palette of her dress.

Bringing high levels of sophistication and understated glamour, the pumps are often the footwear choice for all occasions that call for a touch of elegance, from fashion weeks to formal events.
Another royal who is a major fan of the shoe is quiet luxury muse Meghan Markle. The Duchess of Sussex owns at least three pairs of the exact same shoes, in black, patent red and a cool-girl-approved python print.
