On the evening of June 19, 2026, King Frederik and Queen Mary attended the opening of The Dome at the ARoS Art Museum in Aarhus. During the visit, the King carried out the official inauguration of the artwork. The Dome houses As Seen Below, created by the American artist James Turrell and added to the museum’s collection as a new permanent centerpiece.
For the occasion, Queen Mary wore a new red geometric-print skirt from IQ Collection, a Spanish designer label, paired with a white silk wrap blouse by Jesper Høvring. The Queen also wore earrings, hair ornaments, a ring, and a bracelet from the ruby set in the Royal Collection, inherited by King Frederik from his grandmother, Queen Ingrid.
As Seen Below is a Skyspace and an artwork in the ARoS collection created by the American artist James Turrell. Owing to its scale, quality, and distinctive expression, Turrell himself describes it as his most ambitious Skyspace to date.
This is a beautiful, elegant, subtle and simple outfit, I love it! Gorgeous, skirt and white shirt. I do like the v neckline of the shirt.
ReplyDeleteShe has diamond and ruby hair clips in her hair, superb! This looks divine. Love the ruby and diamond earrings, they look beautiful. The red clutch looks good, on this occasion the white shoes work in well. Her hair back off her face looks lovely, her makeup is on point.
The lady in the long blue skirt and blue blouse looks beautiful, very elegant, again simple and subtle, but looks stunning. The blouse is so graceful and elegant. The skirt moves well, some give in the fabric.
Hereditary ruby as hair bling in a such a beautiful simple hairdo ... cannot be topped. - The skirt is not quite to my liking, not the A-line and also not the geometric pattern, but it's only me. To my absolute liking is one more terrific wrap blouse. And congratulations to Fred to an (at last!!) not too tight jacket - no more breast muscle display, here does the double breasted jacket the talking. Why the trousers have to kind of faint and collapse on the shoes - I don't know. Men's secret.
ReplyDeleteVery lovely, Danish colours. Her best jewellery, according to me. And I think she got the white/ish shoes right with this ensemble - and I think white shoes are rarely the right choice. I would however think a lower pair would look better as these ultra high shoes distend the leg and foot, so from my perspective lower would be the cherry on top for the otherwise gorgeous outfit.
ReplyDeleteI think Mary looks great here; the skirt has white in it so it works with the blouse which is a lovely style. The buttons at the cuffs add interest too. Her hairstyle is elegant; the pretty clip goes well with her lovely earrings.
ReplyDeleteI have to say though, I adore the blue dress (I think it's a dress, not a skirt and top) worn by the lady to Mary's right, or left as we look at the photo (photos 2,3,4) Beautiful material and design, especially the sleeves, and gorgeous colour.
At first I too thought the blue a fantastic dress but if you look down a few photos it appears a very difficult material to keep neat. As soon as the lady moved it badly wrinkles and looks quite different.
DeleteOh it does wrinkle, doesn't it? I have to admit I didn't notice! Maybe not such a good choice after all.
DeleteI love everything about Mary's skirt, the pattern, colors and shape.
ReplyDeleteThe crisp white shirt is perfect for the skirt.
Lovely updo.
Cate.
Me too and the hair bling is the perfect finish
DeleteCate - I agree that this skirt is absolutely fabulous! I love the saturated red color, geo pattern, and cut/length. Paired with the ruby pieces, it’s one of my favorite outfits from QM.
DeleteShe just gets it right all the time. Lovely outfit!
ReplyDeleteShe does, indeed!MR
DeleteI’m speechless:
ReplyDeleteHer hairstyle, jewellery ..just stunning❤️
A most stunning appearance by queen Mary! MR
DeleteQ Mary can really put together an elegant blouse and skirt combination. Her slim waistline certainly helps, and the heirloom jewels!
ReplyDeleteTrès beau chignon avec de superbes ornements à cheveux ; je n’aime pas du tout le style des boucles d’oreilles !
ReplyDeleteStunning look for Queen Mary! So elegant and deceptively simple. What I really love here is her use of the Danish rubies. These jewels are almost always part of a very formal appearance--think evening gowns, state dinners, etc. However, Mary is wearing the earrings (full chandelier style too), ring and bracelet to what is essentially just a dressy event. What a marvelous idea--and even better, she added the hair clips to her chignon. She looks beautiful, so polished, and regal.
ReplyDeleteMary looks so nice in skirts, the colour is so Denmark. The blue/green/aqua dress is too tight, you can see how it pulls across the hips when standing. I much prefer movement in a skirt
ReplyDeleteThis is how you dress like a Queen without being boring and wearing a royal "uniform". The traditional cream blouse and modern geometric skirt with the added touch of royal jewels in her hair, just perfection.

Jag tycker att kjolen mönster var mer jul inspirerat än en varm juni dag.Blusen fin,men en mer rosa kanske hade matchat bättre.
ReplyDeleteKvinnan i blå klänning elegant.
Mary har fin stil det vet vi,men den här kjolen är boring
Du verkar vara den enda med åsikt: juligt, blusen har fel färg samt kjolen är boring.
DeleteFabulous look! The perfect balance of formality and summery freshness.Lyra
ReplyDeleteMary looks exquisite in this look - elegant, polished, and refined. Lots has been said about her beautiful choice of clothing and jewellery so I wont add any more, but I will mention her unusual bouquet.
ReplyDeleteShe was met by two cute children, each bearing a bouquet of flowers. So she was presented with not 1 but 2 floral pieces. The coolest thing is that (according to the source that I read) the two bouquets were halves of one big bouquet. When Mary put them together, they were joined by magnets to form one perfect bunch. How cool is that?

What a gorgeous outfit on Queen Mary. So elegant.
ReplyDeleteMary looks exquisite.
ReplyDeleteI visited the Aros Museum a few years ago: I would recommend this to anyone. A fantastic museum to visit, even with children. They were building this Dome back then, the opening was delayed a few times. I would like to visit it again now it's opened.
The white blouse is a re-re-re-re-rewear. Although the skirt looks fresh, it is too long and the waistline sits too high. When finishing the hemline the designer didn't took care of the horizontal lines of the skirt. It is not looking good on Mary nor on the model.It is time she invests in a couple of new white tops. The jewelry is very beautiful, but it doesn't match the style of the skirt. To end my comments I think a pair of (dark) red shoes or even black classic heels would have looked better than the white ones.
ReplyDeleteMoi je ne me lasse pas du tout de ce chemisier que je trouve très chic et très raffiné (poignets, décolleté, tissu) et elle peut encore le porter aussi souvent qu'elle le souhaite ! Elle en a plusieurs autres de cette marque, de différentes couleurs, et c'est un excellent choix de qualité.
DeleteSi je le compare avec celui porté par Caroline (post précédent) la différence est flagrante : le chemisier de Caroline est très quelconque, pas du tout élégant, très masculin, et beaucoup trop grand pour elle ! (Les poignets lui tombent sur les mains).
Je ne porterais pas la jupe de Mary, un peu rigide et trop longue à mon goût, mais je trouve qu'elle lui va très bien et elle a l'avantage d'être originale, ça change des tenues habituelles.
Paloma.
Lovely.
