Opening of the Parliament 2024


01 October 2024

Princess Benedikte accompanied King Frederik and Queen Mary at the annual opening of the Parliament. The three of them were warmly welcomed by Parliament's presidum and of course Søren Gade - Chairman of the Parliament.

The annual opening ceremony at Christiansborg Castle in Copenhagen marks the begning of a new year for the Danish politicians and the Parliament. The opening always takes place on the first Tuesday in October.

King Frederik, Queen Mary and Princess Benedikte watched the official opening from the royal balcony in the great Parliament Hall. Amongst speakers was Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen.



Love that both Mary and Benedikte had the same though about wearing soft blue at the opening. Mary was dressed in a lovely reused coat tailored by Cleas Iversen along with a creamy white lace dress. Do you remember she also wore the coat at the opening in 2022? I think it could be an old Heartmade dress but I can't tell for sure.

Mary had chosen beige suede accessories: a beloved BOSS clutch, beautiful (new?) matching gloves and stunning pointed pumps from Gianvito Rossi. Kinda like this color-combo. Blue and beige. Very elegant. Looks like she added a splash of soft purple on her nails. I like that too.

What is an outfit without jewellery? Not much. Mary wore her amazing Halberstadt necklace with an Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen diamond ring. Ole Lynggaard Copenhagen is also the creator of her SMASHING golden leaf brooch. What a masterpiece!
