On the occasion of the 80th session of the UN General Assembly, King Abdullah II of Jordan visited New York accompanied by Queen Rania, Crown Prince Hussein, and Princess Rajwa, where the Royal Family took part in a series of events. Queen Rania attended a high-level meeting held under the theme, ‘Recommitting to, Resourcing, and Accelerating the Implementation of the Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action’.
Queen Rania also attended a reception hosted by United States First Lady Melania Trump in New York during the UN General Assembly. Meanwhile, Crown Prince Hussein and Princess Rajwa attended a banquet hosted by United States Vice President JD Vance and Second Lady Usha Vance in Washington, D.C. For the occasion, Queen Rania wore a bow-detail silk satin midi dress by Balenciaga, while Princess Rajwa chose a floral-print shirt and matching midi skirt by Alexander McQueen.
Rania looks very good in dark colours such as this aubergine but in my opinion the light yellow doesn’t work particularly well. The design isn’t at all to my taste, not with pussy bow and not undone as Rania has left it. Melania being so tall would look, in my opinion better in this suit either with flat shoes, or with normal length trousers; the current setup has thrown her out of proportion.
ReplyDeleteRania: I like the purple blouse with the gray skirt, the ivory outfit not so much, it's too shiny.
ReplyDeleteRajwa: I don't understand why she has two belts on her dress.
Mrs. Trump: She's missing a belt, I think pants without a belt look "unfinished".
Mrs. Vance: Nice white outfit, but it would look better with a white jacket. The sleeveless dress looks casual.
Overall, I think the ladies are dressed elegantly, professionally, with respect for the event and the place.

Rania est vraiment impeccable dans cette première tenue, c'est très "professionnel" et parfait pour un discours, la chemise en soie est très belle (j'adore la couleur, sauf l'aspect "délavé" aux poignets). Le pantalon large lui va vraiment bien. C'est agréable de la voir avec une tenue différente car elle porte assez souvent des grandes robes.
ReplyDeleteJ'aime bien aussi l'ensemble blanc et beige de Melania.
Par contre je n'admire pas la robe dégradée crème-beurre, ni le tissu satiné, ni les escarpins caramels qui ne s'harmonisent pas avec la tenue.
La robe de Rajwa ne m'attire pas non plus, trop de tissu dans tous les sens, le bas de la robe est trop ample. Paloma.
La chemise en soie est d’une belle couleur. Elle combine simplicité et originalité. Elle est bien portée et mise en valeur par la reine.
ReplyDeleteLa robe de la reine est plutôt jolie.
Néanmoins, j’estime qu’une longueur genoux aurait été meilleure.
De même j’aurais aimé qu’elle arborât une paire d’escarpins semblable à celle portée par Mme Melania Trump (en termes de couleur et design).
Mme Melania est vêtue de manière élégante et simple, sans ostentation. Les couleurs choisies sont harmonieuses.
Enfin, la princesse est tout aussi bien vêtue.
Même s’il me semble que des cheveux relevés auraient mieux mis en valeur son visage.

I like the eggplant coloured Ferragamo shirt/blouse the best. It looks rich and silky and Rania looks fab in this colour.
ReplyDeleteAs for the other two outfits, the Balenciaga dress doesn't suit Rania in my view. The style looks old and retro (is it?) and the pale yellow colour doesn't do much for her. I also don't like CP Rajwa's McQueen dress. A thinner less conspicuous belt might have looked better. Due to her beautiful tall frame, the uneven hem doesn't seem to be working for her. The folds are not falling correctly. From the photos it looks like her skirt was accidentally gathered under the belt, causing the front part to be hiked up.

Als de dames nog even doorgaan met cosmetische ingrepen.
ReplyDeleteZijn ze over een paar jaar identiek.
Hilarious comment !!
DeleteHelemaal eens. Zonde he?!
DeletePlus de enorme hoeveelheid make-up. Het zijn maskers
Delete100%!! It’s a crazy path they’re on!
DeleteLa couleur Bordeaux va parfaitement à la reine Rania jusque dans les accessoires !
ReplyDeleteI love Queen Rania blouce. The style and color suit her. The yellow is a little garish. If the ensemble had been a skirt and blouce she could have worn them individually, but a dress means she had to go all in.
ReplyDeletePrincess Rajwa. Not a fan of this AMcQ creation. The uneven hem throws off the synergy of the look. It’s quite a non descriptive color,that I can’t imagine many could make that work. But she’s got such a lovely smile and she’s always so engaged.
The First Lady looks lovely in her choice, she certainly has an eye for what looks good on her.
Mrs Vance nice Summer dress. Looks comfortable to wear. Again she has a lovely smile.
Lowri.
Agree with your comments, well said.
DeleteMy thoughts exactly, @ Lowri.
DeleteJust and addition: I love all of the ladies' pumps , superb colour and design choices all around.
OMG Rania's face looks more and more artificial because of the cosmetic surgery together with tons of make-up. Why ? she was a natural beauty. The same goes for Melanie Trump. Love btway the dress of Steve McQueen
ReplyDeleteCompletely agree. Such a pitty
DeleteThese four ladies each have exceptionally good taste in fashion. Maybe Mrs. Trump’s pants could have been longer, but that is a minor quibble. It appears the Vances are hosting the younger Jordanian royals at the U. S. Vice President’s residence, so I see no need for Mrs.Vance to wear a jacket at her own home. Both ladies are elegantly dressed in somewhat casual dresses. And the gentlemen are appropriately dressed and are easy on the eyes!!
ReplyDeleteYes I thought also what has Queen Rania done to her face it looks so stiff. She was such a natural beauty. Ashame really!!
ReplyDeleteThe only garment I like here is the aubergine shirt worn by Rania.
ReplyDeleteI like the beautiful handbag by Yves Saint-Laurent I think, according to the monogram on the front of the bag.
The dress by A McQueen is the worst I"ve seen by that brand.
Balenciage known for his very expensive clothes is not what I like. Not the colour not the length or the belt.
The outfit by Melania is not bad but the pants are too short. She has the height to wear wider pants. I think I saw her in wider pants sometimes.
I agree with the remarks about cosmetic surgery, especially Rania's.
Perfect dressing by Queen and First Lady. Also, a very lovely look, from the CP couple and the VP and wife. The men did not wear ties.
