Princess Mary’s cousin, Count Nikolai, certainly brought his princely might to the Melbourne Cup launch in Sydney on Tuesday.
The handsome Burberry model, 24, looked every bit like a dashing European royal during the festivities at Mimi’s in Sydney’s Coogee.
Nikolai, who was the guest of honor at the event, opted for a glittering pinstripe blazer and matching trousers for the occasion, completing the look with black boots.
The university student smoldered as he stared at photographers while standing by the media wall in the restaurant.
On the red carpet, Nikolai was joined by Phoebe Burgess, who turned heads in a strapless floral print top and matching pants.
