The Prince of Wales has launched an initiative to boost the struggling wool industry. The Prince’s Wool Project is a collaboration of fashion designers, retailers, manufacturers, and farming groups in Britain and abroad. The aim is to raise awareness of wool’s benefits as a natural, biodegradable, fire-retardant fabric.
Official Swedish royal wedding souvenirs
The Official Wedding Series of souvenirs created for the June 19 wedding of Sweden’s Crown Princess Victoria and Daniel Westling has been presented at Formex, a Nordic design trade fair.
The souvenirs were approved by the Swedish Royal Court, and part of the revenues from their sales will be given to the charitable Kronprinsessparets Bröllopsstiftelse (Crown Princess Wedding Foundation). Read more about the foundation here, and learn more about the Wedding Series here.
