I do hope Mary has better taste than to start wearing the execrable Nathan...

Well I like Mary's outfit she wore during the wedding in Northern Ireland. I love that shade of pink and it works well with the white coat. I'm not as keen on the head piece, but I don't think it's bad either. If she did wear the same dress as Maxima (I think she did as they look very similar, but I can't tell for sure) it would be interesting to see if it is by Natan or not. If so I think this would be Mary's first Natan outfit. Her outfit today also has a 1920s vibe to me.

Love the pink color. I just dont like the white coat. It looks like a lab coat to me.

I wouldn't wear a white coat to a wedding, it looks odd. Mary certainly has better options in her closet for such an occasion.

P.S. Frederick also looks great. Love his vest!

According to Queen and Princesses blog, Mary's coat is Prada and the dress is Valentino.

Lovely dress but unfortunately it's not a dress to be matched with a coat, especially a white lab coat IMO. The head piece isn't pretty with such a lovely dress. The pieces are all lovely but not together.

Love the dress but not the hat or headpiece. Fred looks pretty spiffy!

I love the ensemble, though I do agree that the dress may have looked better without the coat (but it looks to be an outdoor ceremony in a rather dreary weather). Now, I know we don't usually discuss the fashions of the royal males, but boy, does Frederik's vest look like a sofa cover.

Agree on all points. The fascinator is gorgeous, the old rose colour is very flattering to Mary's dark hair and fair complexion.
The dress looks to be a perfect match and very feminine. The coat is very elegant and I love that it falls short at the hem and thus exposing the bottom four inches or so of the old rose dress. That and the rose clutch creates a really soft effect and a break between the white of the coat and the shoes.
I find the whole look very elegant and feminine and is quintessential Mary. I'll also give a passing A Grade to Frederik who, whilst not colour co-ordinating with his wife, is looking (to quote Emmily) very spiffy indeed!

Love the dress on Mary I do remember it her on before or was it maxima, certainly Pravda. Always dislikes the coat a nice shawl would have worked fine

I love the dress and the little bag but I do think there is something not quite right and the coat is too severe for the look I think. I am not a fan of those coats they are around at the moment they just seem to "miss" IMO someone said lab coat .. good descripton.

Any- hoo-,
Love the dress and coat. Divine.
No disrespect to her late Majesty, but that hat is very Queen Mumish! Hate it.
Oh Fred...
Hate to say it, but Daria nailed it- Sofa cover. Dislike.
What is it with Danish Royal guys and vests? Wait till Tom and Lorenzo see...

I love the tie of Frederik. Bless him, the waistcoat is the sort of thing I would have worn at Christmas back in the early 1990s - my dress sense has improved slightly since then and I might even move on to skinny low-rise jeans this year before they go out of fashion!
Mary's outfit seem more like the sort of thing Mette-Marit would wear, although it is very nice and appropriate for a wedding.
