The grey outfit is OK. I really like the pink outfit.

It would be nice if we could see Mary in the national Faroese costume.

[cute_girl]

is it certain that she's pregnant????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I see no sign of pregnancy in her 5 month!

oops,I missed ur last post Maxima,seeing that little belly makes me sure that she's pregnant!

 

[Princess Maxima]

She is surely pregnant, but the belly is too small

it's funny the way mary looks at the queen and slightly smiles as her hat flies away... i guess she must have been remembering her part in the parliament

nice photos... i liked mary's hat today.

Hello there! I've been lurking for a while and finally decided to join.

Anyway, I'm Faroese and have been following the royal visit on the telly.

Funny comment:

Reporter: So, how did the Queen look?
Little boy: Old!

 

[Alisa]

Thank you all for the photos. After Mary's hat blew away at the Parliament, Queen Margrethe gave Mary a few words of advice in preventing one's hat from blowing away; since then the Queen has lost her hat twice. I like the gray suit, it looks like something that Princess Máxima would wear from Natan. The pink and white outfit is perhaps my favorite pregnancy outfit that Mary has worn so far. The colors really suit her and I love her hat.

I was going to say I like that hat too... I have seen her wear another hat like this one, or was it the same one? Can't remember, but anyhow, I do like her hat...She looks great in many of her photos. Finally, we get to see her belly.

 

[Amira]

The princess looks absolutely beautiful ...it's nice to see her belly finally

IMO, Mary looks very nice, truly Danish

The Queen and Prince Consort wonderful!
Fred looks Dashing, Mary looks Lovely!
Thanks for the pics

 

[carlota]

i must say i dont really like the typical dress, looks quite unflattering, but its good to see her in typical danish clothes to make them be more popular and show her respect and danishness...

Thanks for the pictures everyone.

I have learned a lot about the Norwegian bunads and would love to learn more about the tradtional Danish (Faroian?) costumes if anyone has any information on them. The embroidery at the hem of Queen Margrethe's dress is beautiful.

 

[bigheadshirmp]

her tummy is relatively small given that she's 5 months pregnant

I'd just like to point out that the traditional outfit worn by all the royals are from the faeroe islands (which I think Gloriana would agree on) and not danish. There are some danish traditional outfits, but no one really uses them, so I doubt you'll ever se Mary or Margrethe in one.

Margrethe and Henrik both own a Danish traditional costume, but as you said... they're very little used in Denmark, though Margrethe has been seen in hers. Prince Henrik got his as a gift this year.

I think that Margrethe used hers at the Silver Wedding Celebration of Sonja and Harald.

It's a matter of tradition.
