Please pardon me, I am repeating often the same: Princess Marie is a beautiful woman and am admiring her, but I cannot help feeling sorrows dwelling in my heart, when suddenly I think of Alexandra.

WOW is right (i love this stuff), everyone looks like a fairytale character  , the jewels and trains, furs and crowns, uniforms and ball gowns
i would love to see details of the queens pearl necklace OMG  gorgeous, she has such dashing style, love her dress...well everything. mary is lovely in the glittering white (pre-wedding/ 2 kids later dress...way to go girl  ) marie is beautiful and joachim looks so proud he could bust (sooo happy) speaking of busting hmmmm price henrik needs to lose a few pounds JMO. thanks for all the links and information 
Alexandra seems very happy and has a nice life with Martin, she has beautiful children who are thriving and happy, on the surface it seems a smooth transition for her to private life. I do still admire and follow her family thread but i really like marie and i'm glad everyone got to end up happy and they've kept their behavior postive. in a few years the princes will be be attending the kurs (that's another wow...they are growing up fast)
(i hope i hope i hope for a video) btw Happy New Year

Both Mary and Marie looked fantastic! They look like something out of a fairytale. I noticed that Marie is wearing the Order of the Elephant, which confirms what we have been wondering about.
I absolutely loved Mary's hair. This is (IMO), one of the best looks for her with the ruby parure.

Does anyone know if Prince Gustav and Carina attended this event? I have tried searching for them in photos, but could not find anything. Do Queen Anne-Marie and her family typically attend this event?

Did I correctly see a bit of the chain of the Order of the Elephant on Marie's shoulder?

 Yes, Marie is wearing the chain of the Order of the Elephant.
sgl, I don't think that Gustav and Carina would have been there. We usually only see the immediate DRF at the New Year's Courts. I've never seen Queen Anne-Marie at this event, or Princess Benedikte either. Does anyone know if they've ever attended? Maybe way back in the '70s?
I think Mary and Marie both look fantastic, I'd really like to see Marie's gown without the fur wrap; it's the only gown out of the three ladies' that we haven't seen without a wrap/jacket.

Marie looked amazing! Totally gorgeous and beautiful! The star of the event. That being said, Mary still looked immaculate. As always.

I just loved Mary those jewels are some of my favourites. I hate to disagree but I think Mary is the star. The colours I love those on her. Marie looks pretty and I love her fur but the pale fur Mary is wearing is my favourite. Thanks for the posts so quickly.

I agree-Mary is the star. Her tiara doesn't clash with her gown like Marie's does (Marie's tiara is in a white metal but her gown has a gold-ish trim to it--I personally don't like that) but since it's the order of the Elephant I can "let it go"!

Competition
There must be a lot of pressure on Mary and Marie to dress up for the press since we all seem to compare them, unfortunately.

I think the Danish Royal ladies all look absolutely amazing in their resplendant gowns. This is I think Princess Marie's first New Year gala and I think she looks the very epitome of a Danish princess. She carried herself charmingly and is clearly starting to bring out her own individual charm and style to these events. Crown Princess Mary is clearly very confortable in her role and looks very confident and lovely. I don't think you can compare the two princesses as they compliment eachother very well.

it's lovely to see marie in her first new year court! i loved the tiara she chose/was offered, it really suits her. her style in gala gowns seems much different to mary's, who generally goes for lighter colours and much more similar to alexandra's.

Princes Mary is still very elegant and gorgeous! I love that dresse even she has worn it several times! It's always a pleasure to see her in a gala dress with a tiara and a wonderful hairdo!
Princesse Marie is gorgeous too! I would like to see the dress without the fur to see how it is in reality! She's becoming more and more confident as a princess!
Danish people must be very proud of its 2 beautiful princesses!

The Crown Princess has worn this ice blue evening gown three times, not several.
