Style of Mary

Day 2. Official state visit from Iceland

09 October 2024

Yesterday, the Icelandic President and her husband arrived in Copenhagen for a two-days official state visit. The King and Queen warmly welcomed the couple at Nordre Toldbod.

Today, the royal couple accompanied President Halla Tómasdóttir and husband Björn Skúlason for a visit at "State of Green" which is a private-public partnership between the Danish government, companies and actors within the energy sector. Among others, the Presidential couple also paid a visit at Copenhagen Business School and attended the conference "Iceland and Denmark's Path to Shared Success".

Laster on, the King and Queen attended a business conference at Danish Industry along with the Presidential couple.

I really hoped for something else but you never fail with a good old suit from Scanlan & Theodore and a plain white Hugo Boss blouse. Right? Mary wore the same combo when celebrating Queen Margrethe's 83rd birthday in April 2023 and at a state visit in Spain in 2023.

This time, Mary accessorized the dusty green suit with brand new white pearl earrings from Dulong Fine Jewelry and a beautiful beaded brooch. I have never been able to identify the brooch. Maybe I will one day. Could it be a one-of-a-kind? It is a reuse such as the elegant diamond ring from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen.

The chic snake pumps are old ones from Gianvito Rossi. She wore the exact same pumps at the state visit in Spain last year. I never really understood the thing about snakeskin/python pumps, but Mary changed my mind.

Return event at the Northatlantic Brygge

Island's President Halla Tómasdóttir hosted a return event at the Northatlantic Brygge in Copenhagen. Usually, the royal couple host a dinner or banquet in honor of the visiting couple and they host a return event as a "thank you for your hospitality during our visit".

Princess Benedikte was also present at the event such as the Icelandic ambassador in Denmark Péter Ásgeirsson. 

Mary wore this suit back in 2015 when attending "World Cancer Day". I have thought about it for years, when she would wear it again. Today it happened! Back then I was not sure about it being a two-piece or a jumpsuit. I go with a jumpsuit. Seems most likely. The black belt is a reuse from Celine. At the arrival, Mary was wearing an old black Prada coat.

She embraced the style with ruby earrings and bracelet inherited from Queen Ingrid. Both are part of the Queen's ruby parure. I am sure you noticed her exclusive ruby ring. It belonged to Queen Alexandrine. She wore it as a brooch. Queen Alexandrine even wore it on her engagement photos (link below). Mary paired it with a diamond band from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen and a silver one from Dulong Fine Jewelry.

As with the jumpsuit, we haven't seen these black patent pumps from Gianvito Rossi for quite some years. Mary was very fund of these pumps years ago.
