[escapismsworld]

Maud of Wales - Queen of Norway, was the youngest daughter of King Edward VII and Queen Alexandra of the United Kingdom, and the grandaughter of Queen Victoria and Prince Albert.

Maud had great taste in gowns, and she was always impeccably attired, for every occasion.

As the wife of King Haakon VII of Norway, Maud must have had a considerable dress allowance.

A remarkable number of her gowns have been preserved.

Here are some of them from the period just prior to WWI, circa 1906-1914.

"The Wales cousins had a special way of adding “dear little” or “poor little” to everybody they talked about. They always, if I can so express it, spoke in a minor key, en sourdine. It gave a special quality to all talks with them, and gave me a strange sensation, as though life would have been very wonderful and everything very beautiful, if it had not been so sad...... Why the Wales cousins should have been sad I cannot explain...."

– The young Princess Marie of Edinburgh on the daughters of the Prince and Princess of Wales

From the book: "The story of my life", by Queen Marie of Romania.

Queen Maud of Norway, Jay's evening dress, machine-woven silk fabric, silk tulle and metal lace, hand-embroidered with metal and plastic sequins, plastic straws, artificial diamonds and pearls, machine- and hand-stitched, early 1920s.

Queen Maud of Norway was renowned for her stylish dress. Daughter of Edward VII and Queen Alexandra, she was born a princess and became Queen of Norway in 1905. She had exemplary taste and a strong interest in fashion, and her royal lifestyle required appropriate dress for every occasion. Her wardrobe includes a range of stunning creations dating from her wedding trousseau of 1896 to the latest House of Worth designs purchased just months before her death in 1938.
