What a fantastic outfit that suits QM extremely well. I previously thought the palette skirt was particularly beautiful (when combined with a white blouse), but with the top in the same palette style it is absolutely striking. The matching earrings and shoes complete the perfect picture.
ReplyDeleteI agree completely. Maxima is an expert at dressing on state visits. Damsel Dragonfly
DeleteMagnifique de la tête aux pieds

Great look for an evening out! Maxima looks marvelous here.

Maxima comes up with the most interesting, dazzling and outrageous outfits. You can tell she really has fun with fashion. I think her personality matches her sense of style. She must be a riot in person. This dress is really amazing and very unique.

DeleteI would love to have Maxima as my neighbour.
It would be non stop party time 24/24.
Maybe, but also hard working.
DeleteOver dressed! i wonder if she is aware of the society she is visiting. what she wears in one day is equivalent to a year's salary for most of the population.

I don't really think you understand our country South Africa. They really appreciate bling-bling. Iven the poor people will visit town and do shopping in an evening dress if they have one. If she came with less than this they would really not understand that she can be a queen.
DeleteCome on!? She is well dressed for the occasions, very good choice Max!
DeleteStrange remark, I think this is with almost all clothes of the royals no matter where you live. If it botters you, don't look. I think Maxima looks great.Ellen

Deletei her own reality
DeleteAnon. 19/10 20:42 Maybe she is more aware than yourself since she has been in many poor societies in Africa and Asia for her work at the UN. Here she is as a queen together with her husband the king. On Monday she will be in Kenia to represent her work at the UN. She probably will be dressed more casual. She received in the past bad comments that she was not dressed like a queen should be dressed. People do not understand the difference when she is there as a queen or as a woman that is working for the UN and trying to find solutions for people who are poor and who are living in circumstances (especially women) that cannot be tolerated anymore in a modern world.

DeleteI hope no one will take offense at the word "riot". There are many meanings. This is the one I intended below.
ReplyDeleteINFORMAL
a highly amusing or entertaining person or thing.
"everyone thought she was a riot"
verb
Dear @ Anon 20:45 : Verb ??
DeleteI understand how you’ve used the word “riot”.
It is a good word to sum up one’s personality and behaviour.
A person full of smiles and laughter, loves joking and doing the outrageous whenever possible but knows how to not overstep the mark.
In other words “Maxima”
I like it. It’s appropriate and fun without being too “in yer face” hair is nice too, considering its down. Km
ReplyDeleteI like the dress, the hair (with extensions), the jewels. I am on the fence about the shoes, not a bit too much shining ?
ReplyDeleteI am sorry but I think she looks like an early Christmas tree !!

The dress is very effective, she wears it well. Not so sure about the color of her shoes.
ReplyDeleteA nice and fun outfit that again suits Maxima perfectly. She has such a wonderful confidence - Louise
ReplyDeleteGorgeous and glam!
ReplyDeleteI love it, and it's the perfectly toned look for an evening function as part of their state visit to S. Africa. Not too little and not too much. Lovely. On to Cape Town now.

Pity, I have to head off to work now.
ReplyDeleteI just want to say that Maxima's pumps are to die for, I would wear them in no time.
Magnifique robe de Natan qui convient bien à Maxima mais pour les escarpins, je trouve qu'ils sont trop flashy !
ReplyDeleteMaxima can wear this type of outfits. this is just her fun style. Hope it did not bother her sitting down? css
