Queen Mary of Denmark is undeniably one of the most chic royal ladies across the globe, let alone in Europe. The 53-year-old consistently brings out the classiest outfits from the most in-demand designers of the moment, always striking the perfect balance between the ‘ready for business’ look and a splash of glamour. Attending a research evening on Wednesday, the wife of King Frederik looked more incredible than ever, debuting a brand new hairstyle alongside one of her most elegant ensembles to date.
The Australian-born Danish royal wore a brand new navy crepe ruffle shoulder gown from Carla Zampatti, a designer from her home country, as identified by royal style blogger @royal.fashion.daily on Instagram. It features an elegant ruffle on the left side that begins at the shoulder and falls to the waist.
Queen Mary has also had the dress altered in length; while the original piece resembles a longer column gown, the ever-so-stylish Danish monarch has had it shortened to a midi-dress length with an elegant thigh-split on the left side, effective both for style and practicality.
Most importantly, and dramatically, the mother-of-four debuted a brand new hairstyle, with her hair falling into luscious soft waves, embodying a classic Old Hollywood style.
Followers of the royal style blogger inundated the classy royal with praise. One fan wrote: “She looks stunning! Head to toe perfect. Classy and chic! Love the shoulder drama with the ruffles balanced with the soft curls on the opposite shoulder.”
Another penned: “This is gorgeous! I like her alterations better than the original.”A third commented: “Oh wow, this is stunning! I prefer the midi length that she had hers tailored to. Possibly my favourite look of hers so far this year!” A bold statement, but one we might just agree with – scroll down to take a look at our picks for Queen Mary’s best outfits of the year…
