Queen Mary has made styling up a storm at the Paris Olympics her ultimate modus operandi and this week's swimming night session was no different.
The Australian-born Danish royal, 52, was spotted alongside Danish textile designer Helle Trolle leaving the Paris La Defense Arena in a gorgeous waist-defining floaty skirt in a navy and white pattern.

The royal's brunette locks were styled in a flattering blowdry and her radiant makeup look featured a warm brown smokey eye.
Queen Mary's Olympic wardrobe

The mother-of-four looked supremely elegant in a deep red satin wrap blouse from Jesper Hovring which was tucked into a pair of off-white wide-leg trousers.

For shoes, Mary sported the Valentino 'Rockstud 85 Red Leather Pumps' and she rounded off her look with the same layered gold jewellery. Also in attendance were King Philippe and Queen Mathilde of Belgium and Prince Albert and Princess Charlene of Monaco.

Meanwhile, on 25 July the royal was seen with her husband at the opening of the Danish pavilion at the Maison du Danemark on the Champs-Elysées in a red leg-lengthening jumpsuit from Max Mara styled with the ‘Mortimer’ Pecan Leather Top Handle Bag from Anya Hindmarch and the ‘Spagna Brown Embossed Leather Sandals' from Ferragamo.
