    What a lovely picture with the always elegant birthday girl Benedikte. Although normally I love Margaretha's funny style I am not fond of her choice today. I love the Zimmermann ensemble of princess Alexandra. Mary quite sober but ok. Sometimes lately I think her make-up is very heavy. It seems like a mask

      I agree with you, Anonymous 1/5/24 10:59. I too think Queen Mary's make-up has been a bit much of late.

  3. Quelle photo magnifique où je remarque comme souvent l'élégance de la princesse Benedikte ; pas de réels changements chez les autres dames !

  4. My vote for the “dress of the day” goes to Princess Alexandra with the Zimmermann combination. But overall a good choice was made by the royal ladies.
    A pity Princess Benedikte’s son couldn’t attend the lunch.
    Maybe there’ll be a special, belated photo shoot of Princess Benedikte with Prince Gustav and Princess Carina and their young family.
    In a little over two years, Queen Anne-Marie will celebrate her 80th birthday. They'll need quite a big table to accommodate all the family/s for that occasion.

  5. What a lovely family photo, love it. The H Boss silk blouse with neck tie, I love, unusual blouse. The skirt is gorgeous, lovely to see a repeat of this outfit. Pss Alexandra looks superb in Zimmermann, a most wonderful Australian brand. This outfit looks just lovely, it has some interesting details which adds to the attraction. Pss Bene looks splendid. I love her beige outfit and two tone shoes, lovely addition. She looks wonderful.

    Lovely family picture. The 3 sisters seem to have a close, loving bond, and how wonderful for Benedikte to be able to celebrate in the home where she grew up.
