She also recycled the dress she wore to the wedding of Prince Constantijn and Princess Laurentin, wearing it again in Thailand.

She wore this coat for Christmas 2002 and had it altered to wear while she was pregnant, she also wore it to a Save the Children event while pregnant.

1,2) Mette-Marit has worn this jacket twice, first during a reception onboard Norge and then in Thailand.

3,4) I'm not sure but I think these jackets are the same.

5,6) Same blue dress during Queen Elizabeth's visit and for portraits.

7,8) Same blue hat during Queen Elizabeth's visit and to Prince Willem-Alexander and Maxima's wedding.

9,10) I think these white skirts are the same.

Even royalty has to recycle their clothes but who minds when the royal is as beautiful as Mette Marit!
 
Here Mette-Marit wears the same skirt on three occasions. Once for a visit to Wimbledon England, a memorial service, and the "Open Palace" exhibition.

I think it's fantastic that CPs recycle their clothes, it shows that they're not obsessed on how they look, but rather more commited to serving their country.

but then again, it is with all these beautiful clothes they have that keep me jealous of them 24/7. ;-)
 
1 Black suit to open design exhibition
2 The same suit with different belt to open Hønefoss hospital

Wow! So many great pictures, I think she has really "bloomed" after the birth of Ingrid Alexandra, and seem to get more and more comfortable with her royal style.
 
Really amazing gathering of pictures. You realize that royals tend to reuse their clothes, just like the rest of us. :)

Thank you so much for sharing.

2 The same dress after the wedding to recive another weddingpresent an exchange student from Africa, Oslo University could not figure out what to give the couple that has everything so they funded an education for a poor African woman in their name.
3 A beige coat with fur she owned before meeting Haakon
4 The same coat fro a national day party at Maärtha Louises
5 A black and white skirt during her hooneymoon in New York
6 The same skirt during the official tour of Norway
7 A gold kneelength coat for a Ferner weddig at Bagatelle few days after the engagement, I cant for the life of me rember which Ferner was getting married....

Same blue hat during Queen Elizabeth's visit and to Prince Willem-Alexander and Maxima's wedding.

Isn't that hat atrocious! I don't know who advised her to wear something like that. It looks as if she was wearing a saladbowl. My granny has a hat exactly like that one, but she's eighty-eight. I hope MM will give the blue monster away ASAP. She's too lovely to wear salad bowls!
 
All these pictures make you realize how stunning MM actually is. No matter what weird stuff she is wearing - she always manages to pull it off.

attachment.php

Isn't that picture a hoot? It's as if she was thinking: "Oh my god, I've actually been given china as my wedding present, now I can't even pretend any longer that I'm anti-establishment."
 
I do wonder how big the closets of the various royal ladies are. Certainly there's much recycling going on, but at the same time they can't do it too often.
 
Thanks for all the photos...there were several that i hadn't seen before and I agree with many others that she really looks great. I've also been impressed with her recyxling - she's like CP mary - she has the knack of wearing something again but in a different way, making it appear as a new outfit. Bravo MM!!!!
