Opening of the Parliament 2022

04 October 2022

The first Tuesday of October, the politicians are back a work after their vacation. This is the day to welcome back the Parliament and Danish Government. The day to celebrate a new year with politics.

Of course the royal family were invited to guest the opening. First, Princess Benedikte arrived. The Crown Prince Couple followed her and then (usually) Prince Joachim and Princess Marie arrives, but they were not attending this year. Queen Margrethe arrived last.

From the royal balcony in Folketingssalen (the grand hall inside Christiansborg), the four royal family members watched the official opening. Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen held the opening speech.

Because Mary's outfit reminded me so much of a previous event, I did not see that it was this years opening of the Parliament. I realized that later on. An outfit like this is an all timer winner. It work every single time. She wore her magnificent bespoke Claes Iversen coat with a soft white lace dress underneath. The dress is also a reuse (here). A wonderful match to the suede pointed Gianvito Rossi pumps. They are almost the exact same color.

Choosing purple accessories is so clever of her. Mary really nailed it with that purple Carlend Copenhagen clutch and Jane Taylor hat. The clutch was also a winner in 2015, when the King and Queen of the Netherlands visited Denmark (here) and in 2018, when the couple visited Italy (here). She even matched it with purple gloves. She looks outstanding. 

We also get a glimpse of some pieces of jewellery. Her diamond earrings with the yellow center stones are still a mystery to me, but her two necklaces are from the talented Danish jewellery designer Dulong Fine Jewelry. A brand Mary has loved even before she became Crown Princess - and ever since.
