i totally agree, lauritas... i thought the same when i saw it. i was seeing hugo boss' collection a few days ago and certainly, there is a skirt made of that same fabric... perhaps letizia's skirt is also by boss?

I guess that dress comes with the option of either being made as a dress or a skirt...either way, it looks great on both women.

True, both versions are cute. but the dress to me, could only be used at night where the skirt could be used day and night

Does anyone know if Mary patronizes a Danish designer for everyday wear- like Diana used to buy regularly from Catherine Walker? Mary seems to buy high end couture/ designer outfits, which even if she gets freebies (which I doubt because someone would leek that to the press) would be prohibitively expensive.

Thanks to CPMMB

Just a side note, Christian is a fan of recycling too!

Has she worn this necklace any other times?

Here's the nice green suit she's worn before:

You know, I had not realized before...but she's probably wearing these green shoes because they sort of match the green on the necklace! Here's a close-up of the necklace (picture from GettyImages):

No, it's not the same coat. The one Princess Mary wore to the Danish Parliament opening has two inverted pleats in the front and the sleeves end just past her elbow. The one she wore at this christening, the sleeves go all the way to her wrist and no pleats in the front. Also, the collars/lapels are different in both.

What I'd like to know is whether the lace skirt/dress she wore underneath this coat is the same as the one in the Parliament opening. It looks the same but without a hi-res photo, it's hard to tell.

Either way, both white coats look really great on Princess Mary!

Best wishes,

Ayvee

Now this isn't really related to "Mary recycling" a dress...but I just saw Sarah Ferguson in the purple satin ribbon intertwined dress thingy and up until then I thought when Mary wore this dress she looked ordinary and the dress was blah...But Fergie has changed all that...I now concede that Mary looked absolutely ravishing in it...It looks all WRONG on the Duchess!!!

Do you happen to have a photo of Sarah in this dress? It would be interesting for comparisons sake.

Well at least her recycle jobs are better than CP Victoria. Mary is good with mixing and matching. I am sure that came from growing up middle class in Australia. I do the same thing. No one can say she's just spending up the CP Fred's allowance. I think it's fine that princesses' are recycling their clothes.

I was wondering if anyone has the pictures of the outfit that the princess wore recently while in Australia. It was a long skirt with a top and cardigan when she was leaving Tasmania for Melbourne. I remenber reading somewhere that she had worn this skirt another time as well. If anyone has pictures of both the occasions that would be great. Thanks.

This sounds like the outfit you are referring to.
