I know these pictures are in other threads in the forum, but since Josefine has started this thread, I thought I'd add a few I have from my computer.

www.polfoto.dk - These next two are among my favourite official pictures of Queen Margrethe. They really show how grand and regal a queen she really is.

Would you say this is her queen Uniform? Because she does not were a Military Uniform, but have grand dresses but they are very strict but regal

[Josefine]

I would love to see these kind of Pictures of Victira when she becomes Queen...

She is so elegant on her gowns..A woman with such beauty and knowledge. I haven't seen a picture of her wearing a military outfit.

In the first photograph shown, is that the Diamond drop tiara she gave Princess Alexandra?

No it´s the same tiara with large pearls that she is wearing in the second picture ( red dress 1990) it´s just hidden in the hair. But i have seen an old picture somewhere on this site when she realy is wearing the Diamond drop tiara

[Fireweaver]

drat! :-P The only picture of her I've seen in that tiara is when she's probably 18-23 or so.

[Josefine]

thank you for the pictures

how often does she do these kind of Photos

Queen Margrethe wears very grand attires whenever there are very special and important occasions. Just like that red gown she wore while sitting on a chair. Not the last 2 ones. It was her attire during the wedding of Prince Joachim in 1995.

Usually, for me it's like all her gowns are grand and looks very best on her. Even gowns with simple designs looks great on her..Such a fasionable queen.

You are having so much rigth in what you had said about the werry unstylish queen of England.
I think that she is a lot borring to look at when she is in the news.

But she does...Have a look a her official portraits, my favorite ones are definetely in her younger years. HM looked and still does look amazing.


One of my very favorite portraits:

I agree! I think Her Majesty has a great sense of style!

Queen Elizabeth II has also her own taste of gowns. It's like she is on a different level of choice in fashion compared to Queen Margrethe II. QM II would like more elegant and grand clothes and QE II prefers sometimes the gowns with simple designs yet looks great on her.
But QM doesn't always dress very grand. She also has simple designs of gowns but still looks gorgeous on her. It also depends on the occasion they are attending. It's like one has to weigh down things on whether what would she wear and is it just too grand or too simple for the occasion.

I have pictures of Queen Elizabeth wearing gowns when she was still younger. She also has a nice taste when it comes to gowns.

One's age also varies. Queen Margrethe is younger compared to Queen Elizabeth.
Maybe the Queen of Great Britain find it very irritating sometimes to wear those gowns worn by QM. That's because they have diverse likes when it comes to dresses.

But whatever their dresses are, they surely looks splendid.
Both of them are beautiful.

Well, I think both Queens dress nicely and that both of them dress very badly on occassions, too. Particularly QM II of D. Some of her outfits are quite hideous, IMO. Especially some of the morning suits.

One of the American article once reported that Queen Elizabeth was one of the badest dressed famous people in the world BUT she wore very COOL hats.

I agree with the article on that she wears very cool hats. If you look carefully, most of her hats are quite stylish and modern. But also I think HM's clothing is not ugly but quite boring. But she is afterall over 70 so what do u expect. Also HM doesn't like elaborate or too daring dresses and is sort of indifferent in clothing. She once said that to her daughter "I'm not a Hollywood star".

Queen Elizabeth likes light smiles. I think she is a very serious-minded person. She resembles her grandmother, Queen Mary ALOT, both in seriousness and look. So see a picture of Queen Mary.

[H.M. Margrethe]

I just don´t think that i haf ever seen her smile as an older lady.
If you also take a look at her daugther Anne. She dosen´t smile like her mother the queen and she is alot younge then mother.
But queen margrethe her in Denmark she´s smiles alot.
