The tailored jacket was cinched at the waist with a slim black belt, creating a defined silhouette before flowing into dramatic wide-leg trousers.<\/p>\n<p> <img src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/f6c529a50f3f-copenhagen-denmark-queen-mary-of-denmark-arrives-with-brian-mikkelsen-and-jens-m.jpg\"   width=\"800\" height=\"1200\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Queen Mary met with companies showcasing innovations in quantum technology, defense technology and biotech during her visit to the Bella Center.\" fetchpriority=\"auto\" class=\"image ho-image\" data-flatplan=\"fp_photoCaption\"\/>\u00a9 Martin Sylvest AndersenQueen Mary met with companies showcasing innovations in quantum technology, defense technology and biotech during her visit to the Bella Center.<\/p>\n<p id=\"ehjQmD4ZLNa\" data-wc=\"37\">Mary kept the rest of her styling understated, allowing the statement tailoring to take center stage. Her brunette hair was worn loose in softly styled waves, while delicate earrings and a pendant necklace added subtle finishing touches.<\/p>\n<p id=\"eLPNegk5HWb\" data-wc=\"43\">The result was a polished look that felt particularly fitting for the occasion. Rather than opting for one of the dresses or skirts frequently seen in her royal wardrobe, Mary embraced a sleek, business-inspired silhouette as she attended Danish Industry&#8217;s annual business day.<\/p>\n<p> <img src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/c323a8f9e7d1-copenhagen-denmark-queen-mary-of-denmark-visits-sparrow-quantum-as-an-exhibitor.jpg\"   width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"The 54-year-old royal wore her brunette hair in soft waves and completed her polished look with delicate jewelry.\" fetchpriority=\"auto\" class=\"image ho-image\" data-flatplan=\"fp_photoCaption\"\/>\u00a9 Martin Sylvest AndersenThe 54-year-old royal wore her brunette hair in soft waves and completed her polished look with delicate jewelry.<\/p>\n<p id=\"eD3Te8761QU\" data-wc=\"39\">According to the Danish Royal House, innovation, entrepreneurship and social responsibility were at the heart of this year&#8217;s event. During her visit, the Queen met representatives from companies working to develop solutions to some of the challenges facing Denmark.<\/p>\n<p id=\"e-4Swce63M2\" data-wc=\"19\">Mary also toured a series of company stands showcasing developments across fields including quantum technology, defense technology and biotechnology.<\/p>\n<p> <img src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/b7646ae1f9cb-copenhagen-denmark-queen-mary-of-denmark-attends-the-danish-chamber-of-commerce.jpg\"   width=\"799\" height=\"1200\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"The Queen toured company stands and learned about new solutions being developed to address challenges facing Denmark.\" fetchpriority=\"auto\" class=\"image ho-image\" data-flatplan=\"fp_photoCaption\"\/>\u00a9 Martin Sylvest AndersenThe Queen toured company stands and learned about new solutions being developed to address challenges facing Denmark.<\/p>\n<p id=\"eq713fPWqc8\" data-wc=\"48\">The engagement concluded with another important royal duty for the Queen as she presented the 2026 Danish Industry Award. This year&#8217;s honor went to Virksomhedsberedskabet, an initiative that works to connect the needs of public authorities with the resources of businesses in the event of a national crisis.<\/p>\n<p id=\"e1nFH7TZpsGZ\" data-wc=\"41\">It was a fitting setting for one of Mary&#8217;s sharpest recent fashion moments. Since becoming Queen in January 2024, the Australian-born royal has continued to balance the elegant dresses, gowns and traditional pieces associated with royal life with more contemporary tailoring.<\/p>\n<p> <img src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/b99cd672fc65-copenhagen-denmark-queen-mary-of-denmark-visits-sparrow-quantum-as-an-exhibitor.jpg\"   width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Queen Mary paired her statement jacket with coordinating wide-leg trousers for the business-focused royal engagement.\" fetchpriority=\"auto\" class=\"image ho-image\" data-flatplan=\"fp_photoCaption\"\/>\u00a9 Martin Sylvest AndersenQueen Mary paired her statement jacket with coordinating wide-leg trousers for the business-focused royal engagement.<\/p>\n<p id=\"eHFhP96b4FkZ\" data-wc=\"22\">Wednesday&#8217;s graphic suit offered another example of that approach, taking the familiar royal pantsuit and giving it a bolder, more modern finish.<\/p>\n<p id=\"eH03x39gNtyI\" data-wc=\"23\">And with an afternoon dedicated to some of Denmark&#8217;s most forward-looking businesses, Mary&#8217;s sophisticated take on power dressing couldn&#8217;t have been more appropriate.<\/p>\n<p> <img src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/dcb96cbef015-copenhagen-denmark-queen-mary-of-denmark-presents-the-the-danish-business-award.jpg\"   width=\"799\" height=\"1200\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"The Danish Queen put a modern spin on power dressing with a graphic tailored suit cinched at the waist with a slim belt.\" fetchpriority=\"auto\" class=\"image ho-image\" data-flatplan=\"fp_photoCaption\"\/>\u00a9 Martin Sylvest AndersenThe Danish Queen put a modern spin on power dressing with a graphic tailored suit cinched at the waist with a slim belt.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Queen Mary was dressed for business as she stepped out in Copenhagen on Wednesday, September 2, delivering a&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":591258,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[20187,156,111,139,69,20186,16196],"class_list":["post-591257","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-entertainment","tag-danish-royals","tag-entertainment","tag-new-zealand","tag-newzealand","tag-nz","tag-queen-mary","tag-royals"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/591257","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=591257"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/591257\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/591258"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=591257"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=591257"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=591257"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
