Queen Máxima of the Netherlands, the United Nations Secretary-General’s Special Advocate for Financial Health (UNSGSA), is paying a working visit to the Republic of South Africa from May 20 to 22. This is her first country visit in her new UN role focused on financial health.
On May 20, Dutch Queen Máxima visited three companies in Cape Town that contribute to improving financial health. She also visited Discovery Vitality, an organisation specialising in scientific analysis and behavioural change.
Dries Van Noten Suit
Dries Van Noten Beau Suit
Not my favourite look. The suit is nice but the buttoned double breasted jacket and the front pleats on the pants seem to be at odds. Perhaps if the jacket was left open like the model it would be fine. The length hits in the strong spot. I guess that is the reason I am not a fan of double breasted jackets.
ReplyDeleteTrès élégant ce style de costume que j'aime quand il est non boutonné ; j'aime voir quand Maxima s'est intégrée parmi des danseurs !
ReplyDeleteI like the color of this pant suit. I call it petrole green, but maybe it is also called dark turquoise. Love it.
ReplyDeleteMagnifique reine.
ReplyDeleteTailleur-pantalon d’une couleur que j’affectionne.
Dommage que le pantalon soit une voire deux (02) tailles au-dessus. Même sur le mannequin, je le trouve peu seyant.
Fort heureusement, elle sait toujours agrémenter ses tenues d’un beau sourire; de même qu’une bonne humeur qui semble contagieuse.

The current oversize fashion is rarely success IMV, but let's wait to see what comes next ...
DeleteNice color also a practical outfit for her work today.

She looks like an dutch air hostess from KLM, her attitude during her arrival at Kaapstad towards the press was very rude, she decided last minute that they were not aloud to take any pictures, so they leave with nothing, all free lancers, paid there ticket to South Afrika and madame acts like that, very haughty. She shows more and more another not so pleasant side of herself….
ReplyDeleteI find this comment very rude and am surprised that it is posted.
DeleteSometimes people can get angry whether it is royalty or commoner .
DeleteAva
She was on a business trip, she wanted to be taken seriously; no unnecessary paparazzi! but she could not avoid the African welcome of dancers.
DeleteYou might want to brush up on your spelling.
DeleteYou know , @ Anonymous 20:56 , you actually paid Maxima a great compliment.
DeleteKLM flight attendants are very beautiful and hard working women, I can assure you.
For your information, anyone from any nationality can normally apply for a job as a flight assistant in air companies.
I'm sure you wouldn't fulfil any of their strict requirements.
I pity the rest of your comment.
Please, check your spelling and geography knowledge before bashing people.
You are just a keyboard warrior.
Your nerve is beyond words.
@20:56 A public figure does not have to accept to be photographed. Normally in a visit like this - she was with the UN - there’ll be an organised tight program that she will be led through and because she is royal, she will have security too. There may be organised press people with her. All others she will not have time or obligation to stop for. This is not rudeness, in the same way you too do not need to accept to be photographed by a bunch of freelancers who have flown in without invitation to take your photo!! We would not accuse you of being haughty for ignoring such a group, but within your rights. What is your interest I wonder that has made you worry about this issue?
DeleteWhile I don’t think the comment re Maxima not addressing a group of freelancers is fair, I find the comeback of P the Original goes way too far. This isn’t a match and there is no need to send personal, low blows (eg “ I'm sure you wouldn't fulfil any of their strict requirements”, etc) to another commenter here. You can still make your point!
DeleteLovely color. Think this is a re-wear, but the pants are too long and the jacket puckers at the far right button. Think there is an inside button in the jacket that would have pulled that together. Often that is the case with double breasted jackets. Hair looks good and casual.
ReplyDeleteThe color of this pantsuit is lovely. She looks right in her element here, splendid!
ReplyDeletePretoria is the capital of South Africa
ReplyDeleteSouth Africa has three capitals , each one with a specific function: legislative, administrative and judicial.
DeleteRight lol
DeleteAh actually Cape Town is a capital city and so is Pretoria … and so Bloemfontein. South Africa has 3!
DeleteBaila, Maxima!!
ReplyDeleteHow lovely, she looks gorgeous and engaging as always.
Pretoria is the capital city of South Africa.
ReplyDeleteThe capital of south africa is not pretoria?
ReplyDeleteWell whatever the capital is her suit is nice and professional.
