I like the idea of recycling dresses. The royals have to have so many outfits and they are all so expensive, a bit of thrift is to be admired more than anything else.
What a waste to pay a fortune for a dress and then put it in a cupboard. I hope we see even more of this.

I wouldn't say Marie was copying Mary. The different colors and stylings of the dresses make them seem so different.

Royals are wearing dresses with ruffles all over the place at the moment (Letizia, Maxima, Mary, Marie). I don't think Marie is copying Mary, it's just "En Vogue" to wear that sort of dresses.

Today I saw pictures of Mette-Marit attending the wedding of the Spanish crown prince and princess at www.royals.web-log.nl. Though she is wearing a jacket, her dress underneath somehow remins me of the one we have seen on Princess Mary at Isabella's baptism - there is only a colour difference. Unfortunately I was not able to link the photos to this threat, therefore hopefully you know which dresses I am talking about. What do you think?

I don't know the designer of the earrings, but they look amazing on both Maxima and Mathilde.

It seems as though they share the same stylist and the exact same fashion-sense! The coat is beautiful in both colors.

Yes they are probably the two princesses who "overlap" the most.
Gotta love Natan (LOL)

two very similar gala dresses for queen sofia and princess maxima:

(maxima's is by argentinian designer graciela naum, who used to dress her previous to her royal life)
