a big grand dress for the occassion - Mary does these type of events so perfectly
the colour is a bold choice but maybe it doesnt quite work with the rubies - i shall wait to see better closeups

I love the dress, the bold colour and the detailing.
Both Mary and Frederik looks great, love Ferderik in uniform, compliments his elegant wife perfectly.
The fur is lovely

I like the shape of Mary's gown, but the rubies do not work well with it. Perhaps she should have worn her wedding tiara with this gown.

I found a picture which shows the number of press and photographers which were taking pictures. In this photo, the flashes from the cameras are very evident which would account for the taffeta silk detachable part of the dress appearing to be shiny at some times and not others!

What CP Mary needs is an all diamond, important tiara... one that would go with "everything". :) (Pr. Marie's eg?) She shouldn't have to be 'limited' to what color gown she can wear to match her important tiara. Just IMHO, of course...

I think so. It doesn't seem to be part of the ruby set.

Actually, she's wearing the pendant from the ruby and diamond brooch as a necklace. She's wearing the brooch at her waist. Photos are in the jewelry thread as follows:

CP Mary has worn orange before during a trip to Prague in 2006
Picture details
I think that the color works well with the rubies!

Without those big ruby tiara, she looks quite much better in orange, simple and elegant! But somehow now, it seems that too crowded for her  , I just think that maybe orange is quite a strong colour that need not to match too much other accessory  . Also, ruby and the gown's colours are too similar  . Anyway, not a good choice.  I would agree that this gown with her wedding tiara is absolutely better than that, sometimes jewels are as simple as beautiful which makes you shine.

She looks beautiful and the dress is gorgeous. Not sure about the tiarra with the dress. In some pictures it looks just fine with it, but in others...

Well, the top part of the dress made me think this was a really nice dress but after seeing the shiney taffta part of the dress, its all wrong.
I like the color on Mary and the fur looked really nice with it.
The rubbie set was not the right choice to wear but at least she didnt wear the whole necklace piece but went for the pendent.
Whats up with the out of place silver clutch, couldnt get a gold clutch?
Hairstyle was nice but very similar to S-I-L.

The dress definitely highlights her beautiful figure. I somehow prefer to see her in a more contemporary and chic style, like a sleek gown without the billowing skirt. Maybe it is not dressy enough for this function. The simpler style would then set off the more elaborate tiara. Just my humble opinion.
