Queen Mary of Denmark looked stunning in a gorgeous gold and magnolia dress today as she hosted the royal couple’s New Year’s reception.
The Danish royal, 52, put on a dazzling display on Monday as she arrived at Christian VII’s Palace in Amalienborg alongside her husband King Frederik, 56, for the engagement.
The mother of two looked angelic in a long gold brocade dress with wide sleeves and a high neck.
The regal-looking dress, designed by Teri Jon for Rickie Freeman, was previously worn by Mary to an engagement last year, when the Queen made a state visit to Greenland alongside her husband.
Mary was photographed smiling sweetly as she stepped out in the stunning dress, polishing off the ensemble with a pair of crisp white gloves and a baby blue sash across her chest.
She rocked subtle yet classic makeup with a soft base, pink lips, and a glamorous smokey eye.
The royal wore her thick chocolate tresses in a sleek updo with her sleek bangs framing her face.
Complementing the look, she styled a pair of pearl earrings that perfectly complemented the subtle sparkle emanating from the gold embroidery on her dress.
