well, she had blue and red in her dress, so she was clearly matching her gems to her dress?

The dress is ugly. I hoped to never see it again, but was proven otherwise.

Well, maybe not for Mary, but I know I'd probably break my neck trying to dance in that. (Frederick looks like he has to keep a distance).

Plus, she is sweeping the floor, the dress must be filthy by the end of the evening.

Ya, know I've seen this dress in past and hated it. But these pictures and the video have made me like this outing of the dress. Lovely.

Wow she can sure dance in the dress, they really look like they are having fun. The dress just flatters her figure,,the gathered bodice and fits perfectly, not too tight or,too loose the way most strapless dresses go. It is just figure hugging and then the train comes out t from the rear, just perfect. The print doesn't seem great in a still picture, but in action it is a winner

I adore her soft elegant hair updo with soft curls. And the gown... it moves so exquisitely! (se the video)

And it's only a plus to have Frederik by her side :)

I do think her hair was youthful and perfect for the dress/situation.
I loved how the dress moved and it's obvious that Fred and Mary are both used to dancing with such dresses. As Mary moved around and danced, that dress was a knock-out and the earrings are amazing.

They looked to be having so much fun together. Perhaps the earrings were to pick up Fred's lovely blue tux?

The ball gown I have mixed feelings. Her styling is stunning and the cut of the dress is amazing on her. But I find the pattern too much on her.

Of her three evening looks, the green one is my favourite by and far. The color and style really suit Mary.

The green dress is lovely and different, but it's not my favorite of the three. Her hair and makeup are flawless.

yes, thank you, what a fabulous picture of both of them. . Plus, now I can see all the gathers of the skirt in the rear that make the great fish tail. A very well made and flattering to Mary gown.
The olive green sleeveless dress is very nice too, perfect for the occasion, a little dressy but still professional. Any Id on that dress?

I noticed him too! I'm not sure whether he was entertained, charmed, aamazed or envious looking at Fred's happiness and willingness to show his love and pride in his wife so openly.

The green dress is a nice shade on Mary but the print on the hips seem too wide.

i am not a fan of that olive-coloured dress. i don't think that colour is nice on anyone to be very honest.
