Crown Princess Victoria of Sweden looked chic in a fuchsia two-piece suit as she attended a sustainability event in Stockholm today.

The royal, 45, beamed as she was snapped making her towards the Nordic Food Waste Summit in the country’s capital.

Mother-of-two Victoria beamed she made her way to the event, holding a bouquet of flowers as she walked to the summit.

The royal, who is an international ambassador for the sustainable development goals (SDGs), looked businesslike yet stylish in her outfit which paired the traditional cut of a trouser suit with a fashion-forward bright print.

Her fuchsia trousers and blazer, which featured a dark grey chequered pattern, were paired with a white open-necked blouse.

She finished the professional ensemble with brown boots, and a coordinating handbag, which she wore slung over her shoulder. 

The royal wore her brunette locks styled into a chic but functional bun, matching the vibe of her trouser suit. 

Meanwhile, her make-up look was understated, and she boasted a natural look, showing off a flawless complexion.

The goal of today’s summit was to devise ways the Nordic Region can meet the global goal of halving food waste by 2030.

More than 170 people including the royal alongside Princess Marie of Denmark, politicians, experts and others came together to discuss how the Nordic Region can implement immediate measures to reduce food waste.  

According to the event organisers: ‘Food loss and waste are big sustainability issues with vast effects on our climate and environment. 

‘More than a third of all the food produced globally is lost or wasted. 

‘In the Nordic countries approximately 3.6 million tons of food are wasted annually. If food waste were a country, it would be the third biggest greenhouse gas emitter in the world.

‘Reducing food loss and waste are key aspects to create sustainable food systems for the health of our environment, climate, and people.’ 

Victoria, who is known for her involvement in several sustainability issues, including marine and water matters, was set to participate in the afternoon session of the conference.

Her appearance today follows a recent outing in Sonfjallet, where she was snapped cross country skiing with her father.

The older royal was the subject of attention earlier this year, after he made  controversial statements about the succession of the Swedish throne.

Today’s sustainability event brought together more than 170 people including royals and politicians among others (pictured L-R: Torfi Jóhannesson, Head of the Department with the Nordic Council of Ministers, Åsa Sandberg, project manager Nordic Food Waste Summit, Crown Princess Victoria, and Annica Sohlström, Secretary General of the Swedish Food Agency)

King Carl XVI Gustaf, 76, said that Victoria’s younger brother Prince Carl Philip had been ‘unfairly’ stripped of his right to the throne because of new succession laws that had been introduced in 1980, just after she was born.

Crown Princess Victoria was two-years-old when the new law was introduced and updated the natural order of succession by stating that the eldest child, regardless of gender, should inherit the throne.

Up until then, her younger brother Carl Philip, who was seven months old, was meant to become King, because the previous law favoured male heirs.

However he was stripped of his Crown Prince title under the new law and Victoria became the heir apparent. 

King Carl XVI Gustaf will be in the limelight again next month, after confirming that he will be attending the coronation of King Charles in London.
