While the Queen and Princess garnered attention for their impeccable style, King Frederik’s appearance became a topic of discussion for less flattering reasons. Despite aiming for a classic look, his ensemble missed the mark, drawing both amusement and criticism.
King Frederik opted for a dark blue suit paired with a white shirt, a seemingly safe choice for a formal occasion. Though, observers noted a certain dishevelment in his appearance. The jacket, often left unbuttoned, contributed to an air of informality that contrasted sharply with the polished looks of his wife and daughter. Some speculated on social media whether the fit of the suit itself was to blame.
