Danish Princess Supports Peacekeepers Day

Posted on by

Princess Marie of Denmark was at Kastellet (The Citadel) yesterday to take part in UN International Peacekeepers Day. For this occasion, she repeated her navy felt calot hat with side bow. The side view of this hat shown in the third photo below shows the scale of the bow (something we have not directly seen before)  which is much larger than I thought. This hat doesn’t excite me but its classic design is a good one to have in a royal wardrobe for events such as this. I think we’ll see it become one of Marie’s workhorses.

Best New Royal Hat of 2015: Denmark

Posted on by

2015 best hat small

After looking at Belgium’s entries into our Best New Royal Hat of 2015 championship, we’re moving on to Denmark today. While The Danish royals welcomed just a handful of new hats this year, there is considerable variety of colour and style in these pieces. I have omitted three hats from the poll (this casual straw one, Princess Marie’s purple fascinator and Princess Mary’s flower trimmed black hat) for streamlining purposes. Click on any of the photos to jump back to original posts to see additional description and detail of the hats.

A note about voting- the hats with the most votes across this semifinal will move forward to the final face off. If you don’t think any of these hats are worthy of the title of Best of 2015, save your vote (or take another look at the Belgian royal hats).  The next poll will be up on Sunday.

Danish Royals Attend Memorial For French Attacks

French-born Princess Marie of Denmark attended memorial service at the French Reformed Church in Copenhagen to commemorate French lives lost over the weekend. For the service, which was also attended by Crown Prince Frederik (Crown Princess Mary is in Africa), Danish Prime Minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen and many members of Danish government, Princess Marie repeated her simple black Garbo hat with grey band around the crown and felt rosette time at the side.
