Crown Princess Mary of Denmark and Brigitte Macron BOTH opt for red

Crown Princess Mary of Denmark and French First Lady Brigitte Macron were perfectly co-ordinated in the style stakes as they met in Copenhagen this morning. 

The Danish royals welcomed President Macron, 40, and his 65-year-old wife as the French premier arrived for a two-day visit to the Danish capital.

Matched in vibrant shades of red, Kate Middleton-lookalike Crown Princess Mary of Denmark, and Mrs Macron appeared to brush over their similar wardrobe choices they’d made as they prepared to lay wreaths to fallen soldiers at the Citadel in Copenhagen.

Brigitte opted for a warm woollen peacoat over a matching above-the-knee dress and handbag in the same shade. 

She finished the striking look with a simple pair of black heels. 

Meanwhile, the glamorous Danish Crown Princess wore a dress by Brazilian designer Raquel Diniz. 

The high-necked red Armonia silk georgette dress floated beyond the knee, with billowing sleeves. 

She carried a clutch purse in a deeper shade of red and wore snakeskin heels, with a botanical brooch complimenting her dress. 

Her husband, Crown Prince Frederik of Denmark, 50, was also in attendance, looking dapper in a sharp blue suit.
