State Visit from Bulgaria to Denmark: March 29-31, 2006

[Mollie]

Hi all !!
Does anyone know why Prince Joachim was not attended the dinner??

could it be because the HRH Queen did not want the press ask him about his girlfriend??

[Kelly]

I thought he wasn't in Denmark. Anyhow, thanks to all those who posted those pictures. Princess Mary looks great. Although her outfit was simple, the way she mixed the burgandy shoes and hat are great. Can't wait to see what she will wear for tonight's dinner.

When will the Gala start? I also cannot wait to see them all. :)

[bolla]

I know, I can't wait either, I hope Mary will be wearing a really beautiful dress. I can't believe how quickly she got back to her slim figure after giving birth!

[Christo's Girl]

Well, it is easy to get your figure back when you don' t have to worry about paying bills and you have alot of free time during the day. As for Mary's outfit this is the best one I have seen her wear in awhile. It is nicely event appropriate. She didn't overdo her look at all and her outfit is age appropriate as well.

I believe it has already started, 8 o'clock isn't it, in the Netherlands it's the same time as in Denmark and here it is around 20.40h.

Eh, what is he looking at? http://www.theroyalforums.com/forums...9&d=1143660342

I must say, I'm not too keen on Margrethe's dress, but from what I can see of Mary, Alexandra and Elisabeth's dresses, I think they look very good.

[Princess Robijn]

I liked the last picture of Cpss Mary best :) thanks for the pictures

btw Cpss Mary looks amazing, I love her hair, dress, tiara, everything :) :)

HI! This is my very first reply - just to say that as a dane I feel proud to have two such pretty princesses to represent my country...

I think Mary's hair and tiara is perfect tonight - but why is she not wearing the Order of the Elephant?

Have Alexandra returned the large necklace she was wearing at Fred and Mary's wedding after the divorce? She has not been seen with it since...

[Princess Robijn]

I believe Cps Frederik isn't wearing the Order of the Elephant eather

[Sofia Magdalena]

Nice to see the first pictures from the gala dinner. But why aren´t Frederik and Mary wearing any sashes? Does anyone have an idea? If they were not given a Bulgarian order, as Queen Margrethe was, shouldn´t they wear the Order of the Elephant?

[Kelly]

Wow! Both Princess Mary and Alexandra look great. Their tiaras look similar too. Looks like Mary opted to show some (decent) cleavage.

- Maybe the bow with the big star on Mary's dress is a bulgarian order?

[Princess_Beatrix]

Mary and Alexandra look stunning!
They are so beautiful. :)

[Sophus]

Mary's red dress - is that the same as she wore the night before her wedding?

Saw her lady-in-waiting Victoria on dansih tv - she was very elegant and with a huge floral tiara. A shame she is retiring.

[blyton]

Mary and Alexandra look stunning----very beautifull ladies.Is Alexanra's dress new?

[magnik]

Mary should take her hair/bun up - the tiara will be better visible. She would look better with the sash.
I think that Alexandra wore this dress before...

All ladies looks great:) :) :)

[Kelly]

I think I've seen Alexandra's dress before, but I can't remember where.

That is of course a possibility. Maybe she and Frederik got a different order from the one the queen got or a lower "rank"? But it looks a bit empty without the sashes.
