Princess Mary becomes Queen Mary. At the proclamation in Denmark, Mary shines elegantly in white – and thus sends an important signal.
It’s time! Princess Mary, 51, is the new Danish queen as of today. In her New Year’s speech on December 31, 2023 Queen Margrethe of Denmark, 83, announced that she will step down as queen on January 14, 2024. Now it is the turn of Crown Prince Frederik, 55, and Princess Mary, who are King and Queen of Denmark from today. Mary in particular impresses with a particularly glamorous look on this important day.
Queen Mary: This is her first look as monarch
The eyes of the whole world are on Denmark. As of today, Princess Mary is the new Queen of Denmark. For the Australian native, this undoubtedly marks one of the most important days of her life. So it’s no surprise that Mary made a particularly elegant choice for her outfit.

With elegance, timeless class and a pinch of specialness, Princess Mary presents herself at her proclamation as the new Danish queen. White, the color of calm, honesty and clarity, becomes her choice. The bright white of the dress with integrated scarf, designed by Soeren Le Schmidt and tailor-made by Birgit Hallstein, not only underlines her royal presence, but also makes a clear statement.
For her proclamation look, Mary relies on old familiars
Working with Soeren Le Schmidt and Birgit Hallstein is nothing new for Mary. She already trusted Birgit Hallstein at her wedding, and she has repeatedly chosen designs from Soeren Le Schmidt in the past. Special highlights of the outfit are the medal that sits on her chest and the extravagant belt buckle. It could well be that Mary wants to send a message with her outfit – a message of calm, honesty and clarity, which are crucial in her new role as queen.
Mary has tied her hair back into an elegant side-parting bun – a hairstyle that she has chosen many times in the past and that always flatters her. The tasteful drop-shaped earrings add an additional accent to your elegant look.
