Lest you think that royals these days just wear casual duds like
jumpsuits [1] and jeans [2], Princess Mary and Prince Frederik are
holding down the tradition of velvet, medals and glittering crowns.
The Denmark royals attended a New Year's banquet at Christian VII's
Palace at Amalienborg, the Royal Couple's winter residence. For the
event, Mary ditched her typical print dresses [3] for a long-sleeve
velvet gown in a deep red wine hue.
In addition to a crystal belt buckle at her waist, the princess
accented the dress with two large brooches and a heavy necklace with
an elephant pendant, which symbolizes the Order of the Elephant,
Denmark's highest order.
She also wore a giant diamond tiara. We are majorly jealous.
Her husband also got totally decked out, wearing a black military
uniform with fringed gold epaulets, a smattering of brooches, an Order
of the Elephant necklace to match his wife's and a jaunty black hat
with a gold feather in it. Oh, and a walking stick.
So you see, dear readers, sometimes royals are not just like us.
That's why we love them. Check it out below.
