I have to disagree. I think out of all the current princesses (apart from perhaps MM), Mary has been the most prepared to step out of the princess mould - by that I mean not wearing what others expect princesses to wear. Her clothes are things that we could wear, instead of those boxy suites that other princesses always seem to favour.
I completely disagree with you.
Mary has definitely worn her share of boxy suits, especially most recently when she and Fred toured parts of Denmark. I also found that she wore some of the stiffest of hats which did not suit her well at all. They were beautiful suits and hats but not meant for her. She also worn quite a few suits that had jackets that were not really tailored for her particular figure and although they were of nice colors and material, they didn't flatter as well as they could have if they were to have been cut a bit differently.
I don't find that Mary is doing things that other Princesses do as does her sister-in-law Alexandra. Alexandra as well sometimes wears things that maker her appear older and that are cut too harshly (also possess too much material) for her small frame, but I guess for some it is like wearing a uniform.
Mary hasn't stepped out of any mold, IMO. She is the same to me making some of the mistakes by wearing what she feels that she should wear at times instead of what is most flattering on her.
No, I think must disagree with you in many instances. Mary hasn't been innovative in the least. She is tastefully dressed which is good, but that's all. Mary is no fashionista or style icon.When she is she will then set the trends and never follow them, and create her own personal style. [/b][/quote]
Gigi, I Agree with you...
Anyway, Danish are dying to make their Mary a fashion icon no matter what... :dew:
