Crown Princess of Mary looked effortlessly elegant in a floral Zimmerman dress to attend her nephew Count Henrik’s confirmation in Paris today.
The European royal, 47, who was born in Tasmania, gave a nod to her home country this afternoon by wearing a demure £2,000 dress by the Australian fashion label.
The linen gown featured a pretty pink-and-beige floral print and matching belt.
Along with voluminous sleeves, the midi dress also had a summery beaded trim around the hem, cuffs and V-neckline – which perfectly matched her coral nail manicure.
The mother-of-four accessorised her outfit with a pink leather bag by Maxmara and a Julie Sandlau necklace featuring her children’s initials.

The elegant royal finished off her ensemble with a £845 pair of pink heels by Gianvito Rossi, which is one of the Princess of Wales’ favourite brands.
Mary kept her makeup minimal for the family occasion – simply opting for a nude lipstick and sweep of brown eyeliner.
The mother styled her chestnut brown hair in her signature lose waves and donned a pair of orange dangly earrings.
Meanwhile, her husband Prince Frederik, 54, was suitably dapper in a navy suit with a double-breasted jacket.
The couple and their children were out in full force today to support Count Henrik for his confirmation into the Danish Church in Paris.
While Prince Christian, 17, looked smart in an olive suit, his younger sister Princess Isabella complemented her mother in a orange blazer and white trousers.
What’s more, Prince Vincent, 12, was his father’s mini-me in a blue suit while his twin sister Princess Josephine looked chic in a yellow pleated dress with a navy blazer.
For her son’s special day, Crown Princess Mary’s sister-in-law Marie donned a hot pink suit and navy suede heels.

In September last year, the Danish monarch announced that her grandchildren Nikolai, 23, Felix, 20, Henrik, 13, and Athena, 10, will no longer have ‘His/Her Highness’ titles from January 2023.
At the time, the monarch insisted the move will be ‘good for them in their future’ and allow the children – who have maintained their positions in the line of succession – to ‘shape their own lives without being limited by the special considerations and duties’ that a formal affiliation with the Danish Royal Family involves.
However, Prince Joachim publicly spoke out against his mother’s decision in the days that followed – claiming that his children had been ‘harmed’ in the process.
After peace talks within the family, as well as an unprecedented public statement issued by the Danish Palace explaining Queen Margrethe’s decision in which she apologised for any hurt that had been caused, the family rift appeared to have been healed.

Picture perfect family! The Danish royals were all smiles as the sun came out for them on their special day
In April this year, both Crown Prince Frederik and Prince Joachim came together to celebrate the Queen’s 83rd birthday as all members of the family were invited onto the balcony of the Amalienborg Palace in Copenhagen.
Although the family appears to once again be united, it was announced earlier this year that Prince Joachim and Princess Marie are moving their family to Washington D.C in the US this autumn.
Joachim, who is sixth in line to the Danish throne, is making the move so he can take up a job as defence industry attaché at the Embassy of Denmark.
His family’s move to the US has parallels to when Prince Harry and Meghan Markle stepped down as senior royals in Britain in 2020 to begin their new life in North America.
Announcing the move in March, Joachim said: ‘I am proud that I still get the opportunity to represent Denmark internationally in the area of security and defence. Transatlantic cooperation is a high-priority area, and I am honoured that they have found me qualified for the task.’
