On October 26, Queen Maxima of The Netherlands paid a working visit to Dutch Design Week (DDW) 2023 at the Klokgebouw in Eindhoven. In October of each year, DDW takes place in Eindhoven. One of the biggest design events in Europe presents work and ideas of more than 2600 designers to more than 350,000 visitors from home and abroad.
Dries Van Noten Blazer and Trousers
For me this is not one of my favourite looking suits and it doesn't look right on Maxima though perhaps that's how it is meant to look. Maybe because it is a loose fitting style (too loose or too big?) but on her it looks like a man's suit, and even moreso with the shoes she is wearing. I suspect that the blouse is pretty but she could have had better choices. Needs more accentuation at the collar or neck.
ReplyDeleteThe last photo next to the style model/panel is the best photo.

@Anon 9:13. you mentioned that it looks like a man's suit.
DeleteMy first reaction was that it is a suit for a man.
I think it's the trousers that give it that impression.
Nice color. The suit looks a little too big on her. I think it looks better with the jacket open. css
ReplyDelete@ css
DeleteShe left the jacket open.
Baggy suit does not do Maxima any favors. Stringy hair, pull it back in low pony tail, smile, lovely. Regina
ReplyDeleteThe blue/teal is a gorgeous color but the suit is way to big on her.
ReplyDeleteThis isn’t an outfit for photos. It only looks good in motion
ReplyDeleteI think that is the right conclusion.
DeleteNot a fan of the trousers. Too loose. I know it’s trending now but it’s not a good look on QM. They swallow her up! Pic #3 she looks 40 lbs heavier! Other than that, I think the color is great, the jacket fits nicely, and her hair is reasonably combed (although still looks a bit fried).
ReplyDeleteThe color is gorgeous but the pantsuit is shapeless and boxy looking.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful color for QMax but this suit is not flattering to her--way too baggy and the trousers are dreadful.

ReplyDeleteHa ha ha!

DeleteYep, you paid Maxima a great compliment!
Although I do not work for KLM , I know that the Company - and it happens in almost all companies too- has a high standard recruitment policy.
There are very beautiful women working for KLM.
My only quibble is that though Maxima is a very beautiful lady herself and well- proportioned as far as height- body mass is concerned too- she was wrong here.
She chose a bulky combo blazer- pants- the latter in particular.
KLM flight crew pants- when used- are much more fitted.
Same goes for the jackets.
The colour is very similar, though.
Gorgeous color yes, and trendy design. It fits her perfectly, bearing in mind her height.
ReplyDeleteLovely colour, but on these baggy trousers the double- breasted jacket should be worn closed ( and tight) to obtain good proportions.
ReplyDeleteI wonder why she chooses a Belgian designer when she visits “ Dutch design”,

Beautiful colour.I am not a fan of these oversized baggy suits. I think wide pants need a slimmer top to balance the look
ReplyDeleteCe tailleur/pantalon a une belle couleur mais la veste plus courte et cintrée avec le pantalon moins large lui aurait apporté une meilleure silhouette ; je ne vois pas bien ses boucles d'oreilles, dommage !
ReplyDeleteTerrible fit/shape, but this lady seems to be able to wear any colour under the sun and look good in it!
ReplyDeleteThe suit is a great colour which looks great on Queen Maxima. However, I entirely agree that it looks far too big, and the trousers are not at all flattering. I like wide legged trousers but these are shapeless and not sure what the shoes are like. They look clumpy

"not flattering" ! according to earlier standards ! Young women usually like this style. She can make it work.
DeleteNot a good look on this body shape you will have to be gorgeous with long legs, slim, tall to wear this type of suit
ReplyDeleteIn other words you find her too thick ? She is tall, she has long legs and she is always gorgeous, even if she wears a potato sack. She is not thick because she can still wear her old Natan dresses. Rose
DeleteNot a good style for the Queen. The jacket is not the correct length or cut, her pants are too wide. The whole outfit has given her kilos she does not have.
ReplyDeleteNot a good look from head to feet. The pantsuit is far too big and baggy. The shoes are just ugly and her hair has the usual untidy, unhealthy look.
