Cecily Wrap Shirt Dress, $170 / £135| Reiss
Look like true royalty in this classically regal shade. The color isn't all that's classic as the eternally flattering wrap dress shape serves to compliment most body types.
Poplin Wrap Dress, $169 / £129 | Massimo Dutti
With the same waist tie and collared detailing as Crown Princess Mary of Denmark's dress, this Massimo Dutti alternative can be tied and adjusted to give the perfect fit.
Stuart Weitzman 75mm Pointed Suede Pumps, $348 / £311 | Farfetch
These suede pumps are slightly shorter than Crown Princess Mary's, but with the same luxury look. We love the bright purple hue for this season.
We're obsessed with Princess Mary's maxi skirt, which was a far more casual boho look but, for the big day one of the brightest fashion stars among European royals went for a much more regal look.
Purple is a shade that's been linked to royalty since ancient times and the History Channel reports that its ties to kings and queens dates back to the ancient world, "where it was prized for its bold hues and often reserved for the upper crust."
Although it's a far cry from more casual down-to-earth looks like Princess Mary of Denmark's blue shirt dress - her outfit of choice for the coronation synched her in at the waist, which is a silhouette she often opts for.
Never one to disappoint, the Crown Princess also looked fabulous the day before the coronation at a pre-party event attended by European royals and dignitaries from all over the world.
The event, which happened in London on May 5 at Buckingham Palace, featured other stylish royals. Who could forget Queen Letizia’s lime green ruched dress, which comes from British designer Victoria Beckham.
During the coronation pre-party, the Princess wore a stunning mid-length coral dress, designed by Singapore-born UK designer Andrew Gn.

She didn't wear a headpiece for this more dressed-down event, but one commonality between this look and Princess Mary of Denmark's coronation outfit is the addition of turquoise accents.
This time around it was a stunning turquoise clutch bag, which is similar to the turquoise jewelry she's wearing at the coronation.
Turquoise appears to be popular among the Danish Royal Family as her mother-in-law Queen Margrethe II of Denmark is often photographed wearing jewelry featuring the precious stone.
