I like the original, without the flower, but still a lovely dress on her

Is it pink Looks white, maybe light yellow, in the pics to me. Must be lighting.

Mary looks so wonderful (plus Frederik in a tux, not bad)

i think she wore the dress first in 2009 in Vietnam

love how she recycles old dresses but changes them up a bit (the top is different)
beautiful both ways

I never cease to be amazed at how the smallest change can alter the appearance of a gown. Change out a black ribbon for a matching blush rose, change the hairstyle completely, add an advantageous breeze and there you have it, a whole new look.

While the soft breeze makes the ruffles look really fluffy and twice their volume, the natural light doesn't do the gorgeous blush colour of the gown justice. Nevertheless, it still looks stunning as white or even the palest lemon depending on which photo you are looking at.

Gorgeous gown and great the way it was slightly altered. Her hair is fantastic for the whole outfit.

Mary looked lovely yesterday evening. The dress is flattering, so is the layers and the color.

I think I like the dress better with the flower rather than the black ribbon used previously. She looks lovely!

i liked this dress a lot the first time i saw it, and again over the times mary keeps rewearing it, but it seems to have been reworn a lot recently. i wish she reused other gowns that she only used once!

I actually like it a lot better with the wind. The wind gives movement to the layers and makes it look fuller.

Also looks so much better with the flowers and not the black ribbon. I don't know why, but the old neckline and the skirt when it wasn't in movement, made me think of a bridesmaid or prom dress from a few decades ago. But the new changes, the movement and styling, it looks stunning.

This white dress looks like something for the fairytale princess -- so romantic and ethereal. It really suits Mary.

Pretty dress. The palest of pink blush. I would love to see without any shoulder embellishment and a beautiful brooch instead like her rogal ruby one. Not complaining. Just an idea.

Simply a stunning dress! Most especially when it moves in the wind... Like a fairy tale princess. Kudos for wearing a golden accessory in her hair!

June 7, 2016 - Mary at a dinner in the Palace in a recycled purple dress.

I've never been a big fan of this dress, reminds me of a nice beach coverup dress in someway. Mary's overall look a bit messy I would say, the make up looks badly done Imo and her hair's a bit messy. I mean, if she was going for the after beach look, then I think it could've been slightly better done.

Make up ** Full view ** Close up

Nice to see this dress again. Great colour. For my taste it is too low cut around the chest.
