The Prince's Bunad
Prince Sverre Magnus has been given a bunad (Norwegian national costume) from Their Majesties The King and Queen, and today he is wearing it for the first time. Norwegian bunad design varies by region, and the Prince has received a “Gråtrøyebunad” from Eastern Telemark, dating back to around 1870.
