Crown Prince Frederik and Crown Princess Mary have stepped out together in style to attend the Nordic Council’s Award Ceremony on November 3, in Skuespilhuset, Copenhagen. Princess Mary presented the Children’s and Young People’s Literature Prize during the ceremony.

Crown Princess Mary was a royal vision in crimson for the special occasion, dressing in a very chic tea-length Raquel Diniz dress. The Crown Princess beautifully complimented the frock with a delicately beaded black belt, cinching her slender waist. The Aussie-born Princess opted to accessorise the outfit with simple black pumps, a classic Cartier bracelet, and glimmering white gold and diamond-encrusted drop earrings.

Princess Mary’s hair was worn out, styled in loose finger waves to balance out the high neckline and billowy sleeves of the Raquel Diniz frock. Mary’s makeup was simple, yet stunning; perfectly highlighting her soft eyes, apple cheeks, and full lips.

Not one to disappoint, Crown Prince Fredrik was dashing in a very fresh, well-tailored navy suit, worn over a crisp white shirt. His outfit was finished with black dress shoes, and a shiny pewter tie that featured a small black dot design. Frederik’s salt and pepper beard was clipped very close to his face, and his hair was neat, yet the curly front still gave him an aloof boyish charm.
