She wore this dress very well.
Ruffles are very tricky to wear imo. You can't be too thin and you can't be too large to wear them. However, because Mary has little to no curves, the ruffles gives volume to her lower body; that paired with clinched in waist of dress makes her look a little shapely.
I especially like how silvery/powder blue color of the dress matches the diamonds in the tiara.

Absolutely stunning gown with exquisite detailing. It also looked great in the wind - with every tier made of several layers in very light fabric, it had a beautiful movement to it. My winner of the wedding in the fashion stakes.

As I said in another topic, Mary's gown... incredibly divine. Her Royal Highness looked ravishing.

Looking at the close photos, I have to admit that Crown Princess Mary looked absolutely stunning. I was not sure about the pastel colour of the dress, but I have changed my opinion about it. She pulled the outfit off.

Great colour and the bodice is nicely done. Not too fond from the waist down though. Would be nice is she tilted the tiara forward a little from time to time. HRH wears it more like a Kokoshnik.

Kokoshnik - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Below, a diamond and pearl tiara in the design of the Russian Kokoshnik worn by HIM Tsarina Maria Fyodorovna (nee Princess Dagmar of Denamrk).
Mary often wears the Desiree Diamond and Ruby Ivy Leaf Tiara in a similar fashion, in that it sits on a considerable angle making it appear somewhat similar to the provided 'comparison'.

the dress was beautiful, very valentino with all the ruffles. The dress was designed by a danish designer, very impressive. The ruffles were all place in the right place and moved with Mary, not stiff at all. The color was a great choice, suited the dress style as well. One of her nicest big dresses

I think this dress is going to be a favourite of mine. Mary looked absolutely beautiful and the way the dress moved as she walked gave her such an elegant look. A great choice!

Looking at this site you can definately see that ruffles are going to be the next big thing. CP Mary takes the initiative and dares to be different first. Bravo!
