Crown Princess Mary's Patronages and Charities

[RJC]

Not one of my favourite colours but I think Mary gets away with it. I thought it looked quite smart with the off-white jacket though.

[Fashionista100]

I liked her outfit. I've been buying a lot of grey myself to wear. It's one of my favorite colors.

[Madame Royale]

Swop the grey blouse for dusty mauve. Both colours compare well against the other, highlighting a subtle blend that in turn, would suit Mary's supple and creamy complexion.

Too much of any one colour has a tendancy to wash you out and given Mary's relatively pale, it overly intensifies what is a gorgeous texture and that can often make the wearer seem overly pallid.

[COUNTESS]

You are right, she looks very pallid.

I am not a huge grey fan but I think it really suits Mary especially in the situation at the golf not an overly hospitable enviroment under these circumstances. I can see what is being said in regard to it's appeal but I think it looks really lovely on her. You know that is what I love about this forum everyone take on the same thing is just done so well.

Don't get me wrong, I happen to adore her light colouration..something particularly 'neo-classical' about her milkmaid complexion which I've always found to be quite beautiful

[Vanesa]

I don't like grey, either, but it suits more than well to her. Yes. She has a neoclassical complexion. You've find the word greatly. Princess Mary's face has something very unique in it, that makes her a beauty. Specially her nose and eyes.

Grey is a sad colour, I really prefer her also in short hair, it looks her more fresh and young, grey with such a long hair makes her look old!! I don't like it!

[Royal Darkness]

I know - this is not the thread about hairstyle or dresses... But everybody is talking about her clothes and her style...

I don't like it, if she wears a pony-tail - it is too "common" and fits her not very well. She looks better with "open hair" and her lovely (light) curls... (like in Gråsten)

[Taree]

I personally think wearing one colour is quite elegant. The detail on her jacket/cardigan was very nice too. It was a suitable and elegant outfit for a golf tournament. Noticed she wore low-heel black shoes too. Very appropriate.

According to TV2 news (TV 2 Nyhederne - Mary afløser Alex i Mødrehjælpen), Mary has taken on a new patronage - for 'Mødrehjælpen' which used to be one of countess Alexandra's patronages but which she gave up when she married Martin Jørgensen.

Mødrehjælpen (Kronprinsesse Mary protektor for Mødrehjælpen - link in Danish) is a private humanitarian organisation which each year helps more than 5,000 single mothers, young pregnant women and vulnerable families with children.

Crownprincess Mary took over the patronage at the beginning of November.

[Royal Darkness]

Will there be an event - concerning the patronage - in the next weeks?

[JessRulz]

HRH Crown Princess Mary is now the patron of 'BUSTER' - the Copenhagen International Film Festival for Children and Youth.
BUSTER COPENHAGEN INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL FOR CHILDREN AND YOUTH

This year's film festival will take place between September 19 and 26. In previous years, Countess Alexandra attended the openings of the festival.

The Prince Christian Fellowship was established in January 2006, to honour the birth of TRH the Crown Prince and Princess' first child, HRH Prince Christian, by the Victor Chang Cardiac Research Institute. The Fellowship allows outstanding doctors and scientists from Denmark to spend one year working/training at the Victor Chang Cardiac Research Institute in Sydney, Australia.

None so far that I've found Paty. It's a real bummer that Polfoto has closed its doors to all who aren't registered - they always had pictures of the Danish royals quickly
