Day 5. Official State Visit to Australia
March 18th, 2026
Royal Business Walk & A business conference
King Frederik and Queen Mary attended the Royal Business Walk with companies from delegations of Green Buildings and Renewable Energy along with a number of Australian collaborators. Then followed the official opening of "Partnering for a Green, Secure, and Sustainable Tomorrow".
For their "walk", Mary looked stunning in a black and white outfit. The Carla Zampatti skirt is so simple, yet the detailing are exquisite! Can't wait to see how she is going to style it in the future. At the Royal Business Walk, she paired it with a plain white Jesper Høvring blouse. The golden Rebekka Notkin jewellery are a great choice. Gives a little sparkle to a rather sleek look. Not quite sure I would have chosen python pumps (Gianvito Rossi) with this outfit, but I like the idea of mixing-and-matching. Her exclusive leather handbag is from Anya Hindmarch.
Later on, the royal couple visited Melbourne Children's Campus. They were given an introduction to a research project made in collaboration between Denmark and Australia on stem cells. Researcher's from the project had the opportunity to meet the couple and give insight in their research.

Visit at Headspace South Melbourne
Having visited the Melbourne Children's Campus, she had a quick change of clothes. When visiting Headspace South Melbourne, Mary was then dressed in white trousers, a Harris Wharf London blouse and blue blazer. Nothing bad about blazer but I'd really like to see anything else than blazers. She had worn them A LOT lately. She accessorized the look with cool Georgio Armani sunglasses and suede Gianvito Rossi pumps.
At the grand opening of artists Rhoda Ting and Mikkel Bojesen's art exhibition, we got a clear view of her wearing earrings from Dulong Fine Jewelry, her golden Cartier watch and rings from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen. She also flashed bracelets from Dulong Fine Jewelry and Rebekka Notkin.

Return reception: "An Evening in the Garden"
In the evening, the King and Queen hosted a return reception at the Royal Botanical Garden in Melbourne. The evening was hosted under the name "An Evening in the Garden".
The coupled welcomed all the invited guests with smiles, handshakes and a few words. Afterwards, when everyone were seated each of them gave a speech.
Once again, Mary changed outfit to something a bit more evening-appropriate. Her beautiful dress is a reuse from Zimmermann. She wore it, among others, at Count Henrik's confirmation in 2023. She matched the elegant dress with dusty pink Gianvito Rossi pumps and an embellished Serpui Charlotte clutch. Her earrings are custom-made pieces from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen. I suspect her new ring may be from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen as well. My guess is that it is a custom-made ring inspired by their snake collection. Let me know what you think.
