Crown Princess Mary's Eveningwear Part 9: January 2012 - May 2012

[Frelinghighness]

Her messy hair otherwise detracts from a very nice outfit, especially when she stands next to CP Mathilde. I didn't realize Mathilde was so tall!

[Baroness of Books]

So true; Mathilde is well-coiffed with not a hair out of place while Mary's is too long and straggly.

Yes, she's worn it before. It's from Prada 2004. She's had it altered to remove the collar so now it has a scoop neckline.

[missjane]

I didn't like this coat before and all these years later i still don't. At all.

I personally like it better in yesterday's version, without the collar. I thought Mary looked splendid thanks to the outfit, apart from the hair and those fussy shoes, what an ugly pair.

[dazzling]

Mary would've looked better if hair was style a bit. That is a lovely coat IMO but maybe if it was a bit more fitted or had more shape.

[mellie]

Mary probably has found a seamtress lately. She has lots of dresses altered.
I don't like the coat-dress as well but if I have to choose between to 2 versions, number 2 is much better.

[PrincessofEurope]

The shoes are my favourite part of the outfit - does anyone know the designer of them?

The coat is much more fitted than it was before. It looks very nice now
that it's been modified.

I love this coat, shoes and clutch, quite elegant. In some photos her hair looks messy, I think she should do something about it.

[cmbruno]

I love her whole look, including the shoes. Her hair doesn't botter me.

[bertie5252003]

I love this coat and the shoes are really cute.

[almee]

I love the shoes, very fun! The coat is really lovely also.

[udyusa]

I think Mary is the very essence of elegance from head to toe. I think the shoes soften the look of the simple lines of her outfit.. Love it all!

[PrincessApple]

I much prefer the altered version of the coat. It now looks much more elegant and polished and classy. Although the pairing with these shoes is not to my taste, they work and Mary does seem to like the odd pair of quirky shoes! I just wish she had taken the time to style her hair - the coat and event really called for it, IMO.

[PrincessofEurope]

Altered version of the coat is way better but its still not one of my favourite Mary outfits

[Ccile]

The shoes she wore in Brussels are Louboutin

[Sister Morphine]

Are you sure those shoes are Louboutins? I ask because I don't see the distinctive red sole on them. I think they're darling regardless, but I'm not sold on the coat.
