[Muhler]

Let's look at fathers and sons.

First we have Frederik and Christian.
Nice!
Handkerchief. - Frederik can be excused since he has several small children milling around, so his handkerchiefs may actually end up being used...
Shirtsleeves showing.
Funny ties.


Robin Utrecht | Photoshelter
Then we have Joachim and Felix.
Perfect, as can be expected.
Shirtsleeves, check.
Ties that stands out.
Neatly folded handkerchiefs.
And Felix red slip-over as the icing on the cake.

PH is unusually discreet this time, but he can't help having purple buttons on his suit.

Where would we be without Prince Henrik's touches of flamboyance! I'm going to miss them really.

Or perhaps it's part of a deliberate dress down to fade into the wallpaper?

purple buttons and purple polkadots on the tie, love this outfit, and indeed, this thread would be very bland without P.Henrik

[Muhler]

Now, there is male fashion - good or bad and then there is Prince Henrik and he is off any scale!

Here are two examples of outfits only PH could away from wearing in public.

First we have PH at the return-dinner at the recent Mexican state visit.
He is actually pretty subdued but nevertheless you won't see many royals wear a striped suit.
Interesting tie.
Neat shirt.
Lapel.
Handkerchief.

And here is PH at the Royal Theater in his usual style, which worn by any other would result in the ushers calling the dogs and the bomb squad. But PH can get away with it, without anyone battering an eyelid.

If there is ever an exhibition of outfits worn by PH I predict it will become an international sensation.

[Curryong]

I certainly couldn't see any of the male Windsors getting away with it, or Daniel! If an exhibition of Henrik's clothing ever came to Australia I would go and see it, and enjoy it.

[princess carmen]

I think this is his style and he has been dressing like this for years. If the other Royals had this style then I think we would all be used to it.

[Muhler]

If all the royal men dressed like PH, this thread would be the most active on TRF!

No one would care about what Kate or Maxima is wearing.

LOL. If they weren't too large I can see his son Joachim using them in the future.

in other news, William used his trusty blue suit for the new 4 generation photo

nothing exciting there but I noticed he is usuing the same tie as he did for the previous 4 generation photo

I would say he was going for the emotional connection but knowing William's sense of style (and that he uses this tie very often) something tells me he did not notice lol
he loses points this time for lack of handkerchief

[MARG]

Yep, I definitely think William could give the Swedes a run for their money in the Boring Stakes!

[Spheno]

It's funny that Obama unintentionally coordinated his tie with the queen's dress and prince Philip coordinated his tie with Mrs. Obama

[Marty91charmed]

Maybe that's wasn't unintentional? ;-)

[Muhler]

And here we have the as always well-attired gentleman, Joachim, wearing a refreshing outfit.
Notice the youthful brightish red tie.

CyrilVladisla, you should have posted a warning! I briefly saw William in speedos (I think it's called) and had to call my psychologist!

[polyesco]

I dont think that's William in the speedos, but nevertheless nice photo

and yes. its a very lovely tie that Joachim has worn, it really makes the outfit.

Now this is what you wear to open a Rock'n'Roll museum
a little bit of "dazzle" with a pinstripe suit and a lovely dot tie
http://sn.dk/modules/xphoto/cache/57...538_1063_2.jpg

it just screams confidence and a coolness factor

Gorgeous suit! Fits well, Frederik looks sharp and i think always does in darker suits.

I agree. And in getting better pictures I noticed his tie along with dots have little red hearts

Stylish man Frederik

[CyrilVladisla]

Crown Prince Frederik wore a wonderful plaid shirt:

[Muhler]

Yeah, yeah, Frederik and Carl-Phillip may be scruffy and casual and what not.
But the real yard-stick for male royal fashion is PH. He is the master. He is sensei.

And today he effortlessly did it again. Donned what we in DK will call a Johnny Reimar outfit (schlager-singer) and wiped the floor easily outdoing anyone else present.

Interesting tie as well.

Look CP & Frederik and weep.

[polyesco]

yikes. that green color, well he wont get lost in the crowd lol

Here we have Harry again with his tired blue suit. Hopefully he gets some nice style tips from the man right next to him, the PM of Canada in a fitted and nice suit
