Day 2. Official visit to South Korea

21 May

During the day

The Crown Prince Couple are on official state visit in Seoul, South Korea from May 20-22nd. They arrived a day earlier where they were welcomed by South Korea's Presidential couple.

Tuesday morning, Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary attended the grand opening of the business conference 'Connecting futures' taking place at Shilla Hotel. Following the Crown Prince attended the opening of a Design Lounge. Meanwhile his wife attended a food seminar at Shila Hotel. Both of them were in a great mood. All smiles and vivid eyes. Around noon the royal couple had lunch with Danish- and Korean company delegates.

During the rest of the day, the couple attended several different events among others a seminar on healthcare, the opening of an exhibition about Hans-Christian Andersen, and a launch for Leo Pharma Innovation Platform. Crown Princess Mary also attended the launch of Steinway Lyngdorf Sound Boutique - the world's first showroom where customers can experience the result of a new combination of sound and image made in collaboration between Steinway Lyngdorf and Samsung.

I had no idea what to exact from her. Maybe something a little more colorful. But that is far from what Mary wore on Tuesday in Seoul. She showed up in a reused creamy white suit from Max Mara. It comes with both blazer, vest and trousers. Really classy and super chic. She looks so comfortable in this suit. That is what I think is most important - to wear something that makes you feel comfortable and good about yourself.

It is all about the accessories. Her clothes are plain and simple, while the jewellery and other accessories are way more playful. Once again my eyes are stuck to the golden necklace featuring green beads. I still try to find out where it is from, but so far I got no idea. But I know that her golden earrings are from the Danish designer Dulong Fine Jewelry. This designer has also created three of Mary's four bracelets worn on Tuesday. The fourth one is a golden bangle from Cartier.

She was also wearing two Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen diamond rings and a third one featuring a white pearl. Love this combo of rings. I am sure the bamboo clutch also caught your eyes. Actually it is not new. She first wore it at the Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro in 2016, here. I've still got no clue where it is from. I was kinda surprise to see what Mary had chosen to wear an old pair of Jimmy Choo pumps. In the old days she wore them quite a lot, but not lately.

Evening dinner

After a long day with both launches, exhibitions and visits the Crown Prince Couple attended the Grand Dinner as guests of honor. Representatives from both the Danish and South Korean business delegation were initiated to the dinner along with Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary. The Crown Prince Couple welcomed all guests one by one with a handshake and a few words. Crown Prince Frederik gave a speech later that evening as part of the dinner.

Both of them seemed excited, but maybe also a bit exhausted. It had been a long day. I imagine it being quite a challenge to keep the spirit all day like the couple need to during these official visits. Nevertheless, it looked like everybody was having a great time.




Mary wore the most incredible floral dress - a dream, at the Grand Dinner in Seuol. The dress features such a lovely prints of flowers and a laser cut pattern. Stunning details. I see something new each time I look at it. I just discovered that beautiful neckline. Heaven managed to identify the dress as Zimmermann. Mary got one dress from that designers in another lovely print. So far it is the first new pieces of clothes she has worn on this trip. I am all crazy about the dress, well the complete outfit makes me happy.

She embraced the style with brand new peep-toe pumps from Prada. The color match the dress really beautifully. I have not been able to find the right model yet, but I am still looking. Let me know if you find them before me. The pumps features Prada's golden logo, which is why we know where to find them. Prada is also the designer of her embellished clutch. As other accessories Mary had chosen ruby earrings inherited from Queen Ingrid. They are part of the old ruby parure. Three of her bracelets are from Dulong Fine Jewelry; a fourth one is a golden Cartier bangle and the last diamond bracelets could be from Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen, here.

Maybe you noticed the ruby ring on her finger as well. She first wore it in 2011 on an official visit to Australia, here. Two years later she wore it again in Mexico, here. The story goes that it is an old brooch from Queen Alexandrine - married to King Christian X of Denmark, here.
