Kate and Alicia's fashion face-off: Oscar-winner Vikander looks radiant in blue at the royal black tie dinner in Stockholm - but it's the Duchess who triumphs in her golden gown
As an Oscar-winning actress, Alicia Vikander is used to being the centre of attention. But tonight the Swedish star was left in the shadows as the Duchess of Cambridge stole the spotlight at a royal black tie dinner.

Kate, 36, opted for a silk Erdem oriental-inspired gown, while the actress, who won an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress in 2015, cut a more low-key figure in a cobalt-blue custom Louis Vuitton dress.
Featuring an all-over floral print, fluted sleeves and a ruffle detail bodice and collar, the statement Erdem gown is a departure from Kates favoured conservative looks, according to stylist Hannah Eichler.
