On Tuesday afternoon, April 22, Queen Máxima attended the official opening of the exhibition ‘Above Ground – 25 Years of Archaeological Discoveries’ at the Dutch National Museum of Antiquities (Rijksmuseum van Oudheden) in Leiden. Following the opening, Queen Máxima visited the exhibition and received a guided tour.
The ‘Above Ground – 25 Years of Archaeological Discoveries’ exhibition showcases a wide range of archaeological discoveries from the period 2000–2025. The exhibition not only highlights the finds themselves, but also the diverse group of discoverers — from government agencies and archaeological firms to detectorists and volunteers.
The National Museum of Antiquities is the national center for archaeology. It is one of the five oldest museums in the Netherlands and houses a national collection of over 240,000 archaeological objects from ancient Egypt and the Near East, the Greek and Roman worlds, and early Dutch history.
I love this skirt that Maxima has worn before. It really looks as if the designer put a lot of craftmanship in this skirt. Hat and shoes lovely but my oh my this really strange blouse with these asymmetrical sleeves.
ردحذفLike it all except the weird right sleeve of the blouse. It looks like a piece of fabric was just tucked into the collar. Love the ribbon skirt it balances the large rim hat.
ردحذفUnusual blouse but I like the color on Queen Maxima! The skirt, hat, shoes and jewelry are all great. Very pretty daytime look.
ردحذفHow many blouses in this khaki colour with very strange necklines does she own? I love the skirt and of course her smile, but not the blouse. LRB
ردحذفLovely outfit and I love the hat.

I think this is a beautiful, versatile skirt that fits Q. Max very well. I prefer it with the paler gold blouse from a prior outing. This one with its awkward shaped sleeve just competes with statement skirt. (V.M.)
ردحذفWhat a stunning look on QM! She looks radiant! MR
ردحذفThat blouse must be Natan's creation. Mistakenly, a piece of fabric got attached at the shoulder, but the chief designer decided that it is not a bug but a feature. Máxima laughed out loud and complied. She is lovely anyway and the skirt is beautiful.
ردحذفHahaha! That exactly how it went!
حذفAnd I agree, even the extra fabric she rocks the outfit.
I'm looking for the name of this unique color, I've seen gold, mustard, khaki, but I'm still not convinced, anyone else another name?

19:18 thank you for a fabulous comment. A bug not a feature!
حذفPour anonyme 19 : 18, je suggère "col-bavoir" ;-)
حذفPour Luna, je suggère "couleur absinthe".
Paloma.
Merci Paloma!
حذفLuna
حذفI suggest "tobacco"
Hello Paloma,
حذفCaca d’oie maybe ?

The gold/mustard color isn’t an easy color to wear for most women but it looks great on Máxima. Very nice outfit.
ردحذفJ'aime beaucoup son chapeau ainsi que son chemisier original mais pas du tout sa jupe à bandes !
ردحذفWhat happen to this blouse ? I cannot remember she had such a weird blouse. At first I thought it was the same blouse as on the last picture where a piece of fabric has been added, but now I think it is another blouse. The skirt is a lovely rewear. Accessories are also rewear.
ردحذفAgree, what a mis match is this ‘mix and match’….
ردحذفNatan, Natan, Natan, what are your design values? Is “be weird” one of them? You’ve gotten away with it too long perhaps because your model Maxima can get away with wearing anything, even a black plastic bin liner, and still look great.
ردحذفCe chemisier ne convient pas du tout avec cette jupe !
ردحذفLa combinaison n’est pas du tout réussie.
Avec une telle blouse, j’aurais préconise le port d’une jupe droite.
C’est l’un ou l’autre à mon avis. Et non les deux (02) combinés.
Néanmoins, j’aime la forme et la couleur de sa paire d’escarpins; couleur caca-d’oie me semble-t-il (je puis me tromper).
-Astrid.
I like her outfit very much (including the blouse).

Like this skirt, the matching blouse looks good too.

Where on earth did this blouse come from, boy talk about out there designs. Just drape fabric , tuck in neck and voila , send to the this lovely queen that can pull it off. She looks great, will wear whatever is tossed her.
ردحذفHello to the queen from the King
ردحذفShe is looking absolute stunning.
ردحذفJe n aime pas sa tenue
ردحذفWhat a gorgeous skirt and hat. I'm not sure the bib adds anything to the blouse. Odd tailoring on what could have been quite nice
ردحذفShe looks delightful. The skirt is interesting, I like it. The hat is divine, really suits her well. The blouse is okay. Not a fan of the earrings.
