IMO Mary is one of the best for recycling her clothes - she wears them in a completely different manner the next time she wears them e.g. one time casual, next time smart...like you Rachel I wish I could do the same with my clothes.
Thomas, I think people in these recycling threads are more impressed with the way the royals recycle their clothes rather than asking why they do it.

I could not agree more. My personal style icons are Audrey Hepburn, Grace Kelly/Princess Grace, Jacqueline Kennedy and now, Crown Princess Mary, and it is definitely because I love their classic styles.

That white dress is my favourite non-gala dress Mary has ever worn... I would shell out a lot of money for a dress like that!

I'm not sure if this has been answered before, but who is the designer of the dress in this post?

It's from Prada. I saw it on a program on The Travel Channel. Samantha Brown was being tutored on Prada and Milanese fashion when the dress came up.

Well, we all know that she chooses the garments she wants made for her...but does she also choose the color of the fabric? What I mean is, does the designer have specific colors for that particular garment that Mary has to choose from, or does she tell the designer "I don't like any of the colors you have to choose from, so make it in this color"...?

If im not mistaken, Mary has quit a few outfits from Boss and Prada. They do suit her well, not to mention she can carry almost anything off.

I dont know about the orange boss dress. Dont like the color on her, though she does have a nice orange dress, i guess its the shade.I think she could of obtained for something nicer.

Can someone tell me the price range of the Danish designers (like Heartmade) since I haven't heard of them? Thanks.
