Gala dinner at Christiansborg

23rd September 2022

Usually, these gala dinners are hosted by Queen Margrethe, but this time the Crown Prince Couple acted hosts. Queen Margrethe was not even attending because she was tested positive of COVID-19 prior to the dinner. She is doing fine.

The evening dinner took place at Christiansborg. Members of the government, Danish Parliament and European Parliament were all invited to a wonderful evening with dinner and a following Les Lanciers in the magnificent Knight's Hall.

From all the photos I have seen, it looked like they were all having a lovely evening. Especially, the two hosts. Both Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary were all smiles. I bet they had a great evening.

The stunning hostess wore a beloved evening gown mastered by David Andersen. One incredible Danish designer. He also created other of Mary's dresses. But this pink dream goes back to 2011, when the couple attended the wedding of Prince Albert and Charlene Wittstock in Monaco (here). The gown was once on display at a Brandts exhibition in 2015 (here).

Mary embraced the outstanding look with her beautiful wedding tiara. The "real deal". By that I mean, once white pearls were added (here). But at the gala dinner at Christiansborg, she wore the simple "original" version from her wedding. The rather large diamond earrings are purchased on auction at Bruun Rasmussen not that many years ago. Aren't they INCREDIBLE? She matched the tiara and earrings with some bracelets and her huge aquamarine blue ring. I think it was a gift to her from the Crown Prince from around the time they got married - but I am not completely sure.

That silver stone J. Furmani clutch was a great choice. So were those brand new bright pink Gianvito Rossi pumps. I am so excited about these new pumps. Please, Mary. Wear them again - soon!
