Queen Mary of Denmark dons ‘cursed’ hat she wore the day before marrying King Frederik – after two embarrassing encounters with it
Crown Queen Mary of Denmark is known for repurposing her favorite clothes and accessories — and she was recently brave enough to don one that has only bothered her in the past.
While on the 175th anniversary of the Constitution of the Kingdom of Denmark on June 5, the Australian-born royal looked elegant in a wide-brimmed hat, which would have brought back some funny memories.
Mary has worn the coral hat twice since 2004 and both times she struggled to keep it on her head when faced with an unexpected breeze.
This time, however, the 52-year-old managed to keep the daring accessory safe.
The queen wore the hat, designed by milliner Susanne Juul, for the first time during a reception the day before she married Frederik.

As she stood on the steps of Parliament, a sudden gust of wind blew the hat off her head, much to her surprise.
Mary took the blunder in good humor and laughed when a guard reported the mistake back to her.
The mother of four wore the hat again in 2006 during a visit to the Danish island of Bornholm.
While outside, she had to keep two hands firmly on the edge to keep it from blowing away, seemingly learning her lesson from the last time she wore it.
