On July 14, 2025, Princess Amalia of the Netherlands attended the graduation ceremony for the Bachelor's program in Politics, Psychology, Law and Economics (PPLE) at the Royal Concertgebouw in Amsterdam. The University of Amsterdam marks the completion of this program with a traditional ceremony. King Willem-Alexander and Queen Máxima, along with Princess Beatrix, Princess Alexia, and Princess Ariane, were also in attendance.
Princess Amalia’s final thesis is titled "Beyond Disclosure: Bridging the Gap Between the Artificial Intelligence Act and the Charter of Fundamental Rights with Deepfaked Bodies." The paper explores the tension between European fundamental rights and AI legislation. In the upcoming academic year, Princess Amalia will begin a new Bachelor's degree in Dutch Law, also at the University of Amsterdam, and will participate in the training program at Defensity College in Amsterdam, Netherlands.
Amalia embellit de jour en jour
ReplyDeleteElle est devenue une magnifique jeune fille ; j'ai eu un soupçon d'hésitation à la reconnaître - Félicitations à elle pour avoir obtenu ces diplômes !
ReplyDeleteCongratulations !
ReplyDeleteThey all look great! Amalia stuns in her dress. She must feel more confident to wear an off the shoulder dress. I love the modern and youthful outfit Alexia is wearing. Classic black and white is always a good choice. Ariane has gone for soft suiting, which is perfect for her age and the color is on trend right now. Maxima is in a very subdued dress for her. It is well chosen because it lets Amalia be the focus of the attention.
ReplyDeleteWell said agree with you
DeleteAmalia looks wonderful--so relaxed and happy. Love her dress. Queen Maxima looks wonderful--very pretty dress. Ariane's suit is a good choice but the trousers are way too long--perhaps she had slipped off her shoes. Princess Beatrix looks great--100% the beaming, proud Granny! Finally Alexia. I'm sorry but she looks totally disheveled--like she rolled out of bed and just threw on whatever was lying around. The little tucked in and mostly untucked blouse is very fashionable right now but here it just looks messy and sloppy. Congratulations to Amalia on her achievement--can't wait to see what's up next for her!

Ariane's trousers are the right length for this style. The model is wearing them long as well. I completely understand that it is not for everyone, but we need to respect younger people wearing what is trendy. We all probably have worn what is trendy, yet cringe-worthy, to our mothers and grandmothers in our youth. Likewise with Alexia. I love her outfit. It is appropriate for a young lady. She is at that awkward age where clothes tend to look too young or too old. This is a way of wearing classic pieces on a youthful way. It is not a formal occasion where she is the focus. She is just being herself in the background. Allowing the girls to have individuality in their wardrobe is fantastic. Not all outfits will work or will be liked by everyone. I like not knowing what to expect with them. They don't adhere to a family "uniform". It makes for far more interesting fashion watching.
DeleteJanet, I completely agree with you — “disheveled” is indeed the appropriate word, lol.
DeleteAll are dressed appropriately, I would tuck in the white blouse even if the trend wears it half in. Grandma looks very proud of the girls, love how the king drapes his arm around mom. p. Ariane favours her grandmother in looks. Lovely family
ReplyDeleteThe trousers are too long for Ariane, don't stumble. You have to be 2.00 m if this lenght works!!!
ReplyDeletePR Amalia looks just wonderful!
ReplyDeleteGranny looks sooooooooooooo lovely
ReplyDeleteTruly, the changes in Amalia are astounding. She looks wonderful, and I love her dress.The right style, the right fit and the right colour. Congratulations to her on her graduation. Maxima looks lovely in a simple summer dress. The scalloped edges add a nice style detail to relatively quiet dress.
ReplyDeleteThe real star for me is Alexia who is sporting a total runway look. What makes the difference for me is that both the top and the skirt seem to be made of the same crinkly fabric, thus providing harmony instead of discord. The look is edgy, fun and youthful and I love it when people - young or old - take fashion risks.
This is a proud moment for all the family and you can see that it is.

I can’t believe how much weight this young lady has lost. I don’t know if Maxima has been her ‘healthy’ buddy because she too seems to have lost weight. They both look phenomenal! Amalia is blossoming into a beautiful young woman.
ReplyDeleteLowri.
Agree. The Princess of Orange is stunning and I think both parents have also lost weight and look all the better for it. Princess Amalia looks great but her dress is very glamorous compared to what many British universities allow which is plain black or white, blouses, skirts or dresses for female graduates. Queen Maxima is very understated, though smart enough but the focus is not on her today, Princess Ariane has chosen a slouchy trouser suit again and it's okay. Princess Alexia, as Janet says above, looks as if she has just got out of bed, totally disrespectful, imv, to her sister.
Delete@AnnieM Just for perspective, in the US Amalia's dress would not be out of place. The young ladies usually wear dresses of their choosing and graduates always a cap and gown. Some wear leis, necklaces gifted to them that are constructed with actual money (similar to a lei), plus their honors cords and cords and stoles to signify clubs and special academic achievement. In recent years, the graduates decorate their caps with messages, the name of their next school, a personal design, etc. From what I have seen, European graduations are much more subdued.
DeleteI don't think Alexia's outfit is disrespectful at all. That is a strong word. She is dressed in a fashion forward way. As was already said, it is a runway look. I happen to love they way she is dressed. To me, it would be disrespectful if she was dressed better than Amalia, in cocktail attire, for example. Another way it would be disrespectful would be if she dressed in a revealing way. I would love to see her become the fashionista of the family. Maxima draws a lot of attention in the comments with her wild choices. It would be refreshing to see her styling going in a different direction.
@Anon 14:56 Well said. I agree with your entire comment.
Delete- Anon 9:13
Agree, she is very beautiful.
ReplyDeleteAmalia: simply stunning!
ReplyDeleteAlexia: bored as always
Amalia: Nouvelle diplômée que je félicite, dans un premier temps, et à qui je souhaite tout plein de succès identiques dans les choix universitaires et militaires à venir. Vous allez être, chère Amalia, une reine avec toutes les responsabilités que cela comporte le moment venu, mais en tant que jeune femme accomplie, vous serez plein de ressources. Amincie, ces jours-ci, vous ressemblez à s'y méprendre à votre mère et, croyez-moi, cette remarque est toute en votre honneur car, la reine Maxima est une personne dévouée qui ne compte pas ses heures de représentation. J'en suis renversée, elle est de toutes les batailles. Votre père doit être fier d'être si bien entouré d'une aussi belle famille. Lorraine (Rose) - le 15 juillet, 2025.
ReplyDeleteVous la connaissez personellement ?
DeleteWhat I do find a bit strange that there is no picture with the other students of her year, nor with the direction of the University. In Oxford CP Elisabeth as well as her fellow students was dressed in a black pencil skirt, a white shirt, a sort of tie and a little black cape and of course a cap. The only sexy thing we could see were her beautiful legs in high black velvet stiletto's. I hope she will find a university where she can accomplish her second year, in case Mr. T. won't allow the foreign students to come back to Harvard. When the journalists ask her the question which university she would choose, the answer is "I do not want to make that decision". King Philippe has always said that his children must be treated like any other student, as well in military academy as at a university.
ReplyDeleteThere may be other photos that were not released. Not everyone wants that kind of exposure.
DeleteAmalia looks stunning great color too. Everyone looks happy to join in, except Alexis, what happened she looks like she just rolled out of bed and don't want to be there. So nice to see Pss Beatrix again.
