King Frederik’s wife re-wore a royal coronation look from 2023

Queen Mary looked radiant as she stepped out on Tuesday to mark the arrival of the Icelandic President at Nordre Toldbod in Copenhagen on the first day of the two-day state visit.

King Frederik‘s wife, 52, glowed in a vibrant purple midi dress with long sleeves, a cinched waist, and a wrapped front.

The eye-catching coat dress from Soeren Le Schmidt was elevated with a twinkling belt on one hip and coordinated with a pair of suede gloves.

To accessorise her look, the Australian-born Danish royal wore mauve patent heels and carried a snakeskin clutch. As she stood outside with President Halla Tómasdóttir and Bjorn Skulason, Mary wore a grey scarf wrapped around her shoulders.

Rounding off her look was a pair of beautiful diamond stud earrings. Mary dressed up her tumbling curls with a headband that has been previously worn by the Princess of Wales.

It is not the first time that Mary has made a statement in the purple coat dress. In fact, she wore it to the most-watched royal event of 2023 – King Charles‘ coronation.

On this occasion, she opted for purple suede pumps to match her custom coat dress and a netted fascinator.

It is not the first time that Mary has worn purple – though it can be hardly called a staple hue in her wardrobe.

In April, the mother of four was seen leaving Aalborg University following their 50th anniversary at the House of Music wearing a violet wrap blouse from Jesper Høvring with a slinky black pencil skirt and black stilettos.

The Queen was also lovely in lavender when she attended a state dinner during her and Frederik’s visit to Norway in May. Mary looked straight from a fairytale in a Birgit Hallstein ballgown with a tulle covering over her shoulders and the Pearl Poire tiara.
