King Frederik wore a three-piece navy blue suit with a pale blue shirt and a bronze tie.
Her aunt, Princess Benedikte, looked equally elegant in a cream tweed skirt suit, which she paired with a sky blue hat and matching scarf.

Recently hospitalized after suffering a fall, she is feeling “very well,” although she was not present at today’s event.

Mette Frederiksen, the youngest prime minister in Denmark’s history, wore a dark pink pantsuit, while her husband looked dapper in a dark suit and tie.
With slicked-back hair, natural makeup and a broad smile, Prime Minister Frederiksen cut an elegant but approachable figure.
