Royals Princess Mary of Denmark Wore the Same New Year's Eve Dress for the Fourth Time Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle are other royals known for recycling their favorite outfits By Stephanie Petit Stephanie Petit Stephanie Petit is a Royals Writer and Reporter at PEOPLE. People Editorial Guidelines Published on January 2, 2020 11:41 AM Share Tweet Pin Email Photo: Julian Parker/UK Press via Getty (3); Tim Rooke/Shutterstock Denmark’s Crown Princess Mary didn’t have to go very far to find her New Year’s Eve outfit — she went straight to her own closet! The mother of four attended the royal family’s annual New Year reception in Copenhagen on Tuesday night looking glamorous in a burgundy dress featuring long sleeves. But royal fans have seen this look before — at the very same event. This is the fourth time Princess Mary has worn the velvet gown to ring in the New Year, with its debut back in 2007 while pregnant with her second child, Princess Isabella. The Australian-born royal, 47, even styled the dress similarly each time she has worn it, opting for the same glittering tiara as well as her various medals. However, this year she returned to classic jewels after trying out a modern twist: a velvet choker necklace in 2014. Crown Princess Mary. Princess Mary is not the only royal who rewears her classic looks. Kate Middleton, 37, has long been known to repeat her favorite outfits, sometimes years apart. Like Mary, she has even recycled gorgeous gowns. The mother of three joined husband Prince William at the 2018 Tusk Conservation Awards in November 2018 in a teal floor-length gown with lace cap sleeves and a belted waist by Jenny Packam that made its debut on Kate back in 2012! However, she opted to let her hair down in loose waves for the second time around. Queen of Royal Rewears!
