I just think of how the Swedish press acts the day after the Nobel Prize party.

There are always huge parts of the press devoted the the dresses worn at the event.

It is funny, usually the royals often rewear dresses and jewelry from their past, especially later years as reusing have become more important, the queen and princesses also ofter share dresses, Victoria has on several occasions worn dresses from Silvia's wardrobe.

In Estonia it's roughly the same with the independence day presidential awards n handshakes party. Men have it easy, just wear a tux and whatever. But the women? You bet the "journalists" figure out who the designers of each fancy dress are, etc.

And also, that is a very nice coat. If I had anything half as nice, I would wear the hell out of it.
