At the invitation of the President of the Republic of Chile, Gabriel Boric Font, King Philippe and Queen Mathilde of Belgium are undertaking a state visit to Chile. On June 23, 2025, Their Majesties arrived in Santiago, where they were welcomed by Chilean Minister of Foreign Affairs, Alberto van Klaveren Stork, at Arturo Merino Benítez International Airport. The program includes a variety of diplomatic, economic, cultural, scientific, and social engagements in both Santiago and Antofagasta.
Natan Noho cape coat
The Queen looks incredible, the color is sublime.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful colour green for queen Mathilde. But I am a bit tired of all the capes on royal ladies !!
ReplyDeleteAnch’io sono d’accordo con te!
DeleteYes. Too much capes.
DeleteI agree,
Deletemjt
Yes, the green is lovely, and the capes, well, they do seem to be out in abundance. While I don’t think Natan’s love of stiff materials generally works in dresses for Mathilde, the stiffness does work well in this coat. The design is striking.
DeleteI agree with you Anon 10:12 as I am not a fan of the caped outfits
Deletethat are appearing more and more on some of the royal ladies.
That notwithstanding the color of the outfit is lovely on Mathilde and her
accessories match perfectly.

Capes more than ever...
DeleteQueen Mathilde wore this coat and dress for the first time on 15 December 2023 to open the Exhibition concerning the work of James Ensor. The color of the coat and dress is an excellent color for QM. When she stepped on the plane yesterday, she wore an orange pant suit by Dries Van Noten. Normally they should have left on Sunday but since there was a problem with the plane. They had to wait and could not leave Brussels before Monday. I read that there will be no state banquet in Chile. I noticed that the knod in QM's belt seems to be made quickly. But King Philippe found a green tie in his big tie collection in the same green as Queen Mathilde's coat.
ReplyDeleteSeems like this queen can pretty much wear any colour, she has a complexion that helps make it so. Always well dressed but like those comments above the cape look it not the best. I would much prefer a shawl, but I understand the convenience of the cape.
ReplyDeleteI like the way the belted coat turned out with an empire waist look. Christine
ReplyDeleteI don’t think it’s supposed to be an empire waist! - but rather, Mathilde has such a high waist that anything on her waist looks empire. It does work with this coat.
DeleteBeautiful! And who else can pull off a cape as well as a royal? I think they look gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteI also like capes, but I would look ridiculous wearing one on my daily life, i agree, only royals can pull off a cape.

Très jolie cette couleur vert-amande mais j'aimerais la voir sur une tenue autre que sur ce manteau cape !
ReplyDeleteI love the cape/coat in the pictures where the queen is holding her bag in front of her. There it looks quite elegant. But the sleeves look odd when you can’t see her arms … (pictures leaving the plane).
ReplyDeleteVery nice, Q M!
ReplyDeleteAgree. Lovely outfit, in a great colour with perfect accessories
