Queen Sonja hosts International Women's Day lunch at Royal Palace
On Wednesday, Queen Sonja marked International Women’s Day by hosting a lunch with remarkable Norwegian women at the Royal Palace.
In her speech, Queen Sonja said: “I myself think that being a woman in Norway today is different and better than it was 50 years ago. We've got a society where, to an even greater extent than before, there is room for both women and men, and to be a man and a woman as you wish. And you – you who are sitting here today, have largely contributed to this. For this, we are all very grateful to you.”
Queen Sonja wore her Pucci dress with Chanel pumps.
