The hospital was built in collaboration with the Faculty of Medicine at Aalborg University and is located near University College of Northern Denmark. Children from Aalborg University Hospital’s creative workshop created the ceremonial ribbon that Her Majesty the Queen cut during the inauguration of the new hospital.

Before the official opening ceremony, the Queen took part in a guided tour, during which she had the opportunity to speak with a patient, a family member, and several staff members affiliated with the hospital’s children and youth department. The university hospital’s chapel, decorated by artist Bjørn Nørgaard, served as the setting for musical performances.

    Dress is much too long and old fashion. This is not midi any more but ankle dress. She can compete with DoE and PoW. I never liked ERDEM dresses.

      Too long for whom / against which benchmark? It’s a romantic feminine length. Old fashion? Not really. Once again it’s a modern designer working with classical lines and length, very flattering and romantic and feminine. She won’t compete with the ladies toy mention, but you can see that the dress design is quite popular in fashion at the moment, modern not old fashioned. But maybe not your taste, is that what you mean? That’s ok too.

  2. I love the wrap jacket. It looks very versatile but I wouldn't have paired it with this dress. Both items are flared and it creates a voluminous looking outfit with lots of fabric. I like the floral print of the dress but overall it's too frou-frou.

    The jacket saves this overly fluffy-pleaty Erdem, simply by covering a good part of it, thereby reducing the amount of flowery ruffles and fluffs. But the visible neckline is even so too much, it keeps me from the illusion that it is just a skirt.

  5. Très élégante cette robe légère mais je trouve qu’elle est trop cachée par la longueur de la veste cache-coeur !

      She had a marvellous taste and should have been so youthful!

    Time for this dress to be moved to the back of the closet…it’s dated, fussy and not that flattering.

    Unlike many other commenters I love this beautiful and feminine blue dress on Queen Mary. I think she always looks so beautiful in it--the softness is so becoming. The wrap jacket is also a feminine look that compliments the look of the dress. Would love to know more about her brooch. Mary looks gorgeous here.

    Oh dear. I like nothing about this combination, though the individual pieces themselves are fine.
    The black jacket looks too heavy over the light dress fabric, too obviously an add-on from another outfit. The high-neck Edwardian ruffles, (which I dont think are flattering for Mary) require an updo hairstyle and a brimmed hat -- not this otherwise lovely halo hat worn with hair down (a delightful look with the jacket, but not with the dress.) Disappointing. Lyra

    Again with the 'granny' comments. Have you a thing against grannies? We will be (hopefully) eventually a granny one day. Will I be able to crititise you then?

    I love Mary's jacket and this dress brings a lovely summer vibe. Wonderful to see her wear it again./Chiara

  13. This is an incredibly lovely Navy wrap jacket, but I don't like this combination with the dress. The Sapphire and diamond brooch, perfectly placed, looks stunning. The smaller Sapphire and diamond earrings perfect choice.
