But what exactly is it about out crown princess stylistically? Why are everybody so crazy about Mary?
- I think she is modern and elegant. She is conscious about the trends that characterize the season, and so I like that she is faithful to the Danish and therefore is a good representative of Danish design and the Nordic culture. She uses such as fur, because that is what we traditionally have kept us warm in the winter, says INs fashion editor Louise Amstrup.

And that is exactly what her style is Nordic touch that makes her so popular and she seems indeed to have inspired a younger style-competitor: Namely Duchess Catherine of Cambridge, the former Kate Middleton. The two style-princesses are often compared.
- The younger generation of the royal has been good fashion ambassadors. Both Kate Middleton and Mary has a bourgeois background. They did not grow up with stylists. They even had to make choices, says Louise Amstrup of the royal style icons.
However, the difference between the two anyway to see. For example, user Mary primarily exclusive brands and fine jewelry Danish, while Catherine has been known to go in budget-friendly brands and mix them with English designer finds from among other Roksanda Ilincic and Alexander McQueen.
INs fashion editor believes Mary has a timeless style that complemented well by an always friendly smile and dignified.
