Official state visit in Sweden
06 May 2024
Arrival in Stockholm
Now they finally arrived in Sweden on board Dannebrog to attend their very first official state visit as King and Queen of Denmark. The visit will last from May 6th to May 7th.
The couple were warmly welcomed by King Carl Gustav and Queen Sonja, when they docked at Skeppbron. Crown Princess Victoria and her husband Prince Daniel also attended the welcome ceremony - also the official one at Kungliga Slottet afterwards. The royal couple enjoyed lunch at Kungliga Slottet after the the ceremony.
Later on, the couple met with the spokesperson of Riksdagen Andreas Norlén and the Swedish Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson. Last but not least, the King and Queen visited the Kungliga Tekniska Högskolan - Sweden's largest technical university with more than 13,000 students in engineering and technology.
What an outfit! Mary looked absolutely stunning when the couple arrived in Stockholm for their two days official state visit. She wore her wonderful bespoke Mark Kenly Domino Tan dress and a chic dark cape to keep warm. The beautiful new hat is from Jane Taylor. Later on, she changed from hat to hair comb - an Ellen Hunter design.
Looking closer we see diamond earrings from Bruun Rasmussen, bracelets from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen and Dulong Fine Jewelry. Her other jewellery are Halberstadt and Julie Sandlau. Mary also wore her beloved Connaught Sapphire brooch. A gift from her parents-in-law on occasion of the birth of Crown Prince Christian.
Clutch (Quidam) and shoes (Gianvito Rossi) perfectly matched.

Official gala dinner
King Carl Gustav and Queen Sonja hosted a prestiges gala dinner at Kungliga Slottet in Stockholm on occasion of the Danish King and Queen visiting Sweden.
Crown Princess Victoria and Prince Daniel also attended the gala dinner, such as Prince Carl Philip and his wife Princess Sofia.
Both King Carl Gustav and King Frederik gave a speech before the dinner.
Queen of the night! Mary was indeed Queen of the night. She looked magical in her altered Jesper Høvring dress. Maybe you remember the golden skirt from 2017? At the gala dinner in Sweden, Mary wore the stunning skirt with another floral lace top. A creation by Jesper Høvring from Fall 2018.
Mary honored Queen Ingrid by wearing her famous and beloved Ruby Parure. The rubies are a wonderful match with the dress. Do you like the colorcombo? Even her box clutch matched in color. Dulong Fine Jewelry created the golden ruby ring in the same style as the parure.
We get a glimpse of her brand new beige satin pumps from Gianvito Rossi.
