Premiere of "Jeppe på Bjerget"


23 January 2025

On Thursday King Frederik and Queen Mary attended the grand premiere of the play "Jeppe på Bjerget" - a comedy by famous Danish writer Ludvig Holdberg. They watched the play from the royal balcony at The Royal Theatre in Copenhagen.

"Jeppe på Bjerget" was written in 1722. It portraits the story of a farmer (Jeppe) struggling in life after years on the battlefield. He cope with the aftermath by drinking. On day the Baron and his people find Jeppe in a pit. They are mocking him and yet they play a prank on him. They make him believe that he is the Baron. Powers takes over and he end up treating others like he was treated. Once again he is found in the pit and is then sentenced to death as another and final practical joke. One last humiliation.



Mary's velvet suit reminded me of her sister-in-laws outfit when attending a return event in December last year. Princess Marie, Mary and even Princess Benedikte have loved wearing velvet lately. I am pretty sure Mary wore a brand new black velvet suit. I have not been able to identify it yet. Any ideas? Photos makes it hard to look for specific details. She beautifully matched the suit with a reused white Jesper Høvring blouse.

Love that she accessorized the outfit with golden jewellery. She first wore the stunning diamond earrings from Rosing at the gala premiere at "Ehrengard" in September 2023. Really like the design: cool and edgy yet elegant and soft. Seems like everybody have completely forgotten about the necklace. In fact Mary has worn it before at the opening of the "Global Fashion Summit" on May 2024. It was identify as a vintage Dior necklace.

Did you know that Mary first wore the chic Louis Vuitton clutch in 2009? Back then she matched her new clutch with a Temperly London dress at the "Sports Gala" in Herning. A great match with the suede studded Gianvito Rossi pumps!
