On November 6, 2025, King Philippe and Queen Mathilde of Belgium attended the gala evening of the Antwerp Support Council of the King Baudouin Foundation, which this year celebrates its 25th anniversary. The event was organized in support of several projects of the King Baudouin Foundation.
The evening began with an academic session during which a number of projects were presented. This was followed by a concerto for the King, composed and performed by Jef Neve. The King and Queen also met with representatives of the various projects. The King Baudouin Foundation (KBF) is a Brussels-based foundation.
Beautifull dress and coiffure!
ReplyDeleteI was there. She looked beautiful, not a hair out of place. An incredibly gracious Queen.
ReplyDeleteLucky you!
DeleteLucky you! … how did you get an invitation to such a gala, may I boldly ask?
DeleteWe were invited as guests by one of the supporting businesses. It was wonderful seeing all the guests so beautifully dressed.
DeleteWow. I wish I could have been in your place!
DeleteQuelle simplicité, quelle allure
ReplyDeleteBellissima, noto con piacere che nel tempo ha migliorato il suo stile.
ReplyDeleteUna regina che mi piace molto.
Incredibly gracious indeed. So classy through and through. Great sartorial choice as well. Fits her and the occasion perfectly.

Queen Mathilde wore a black gala dress by Armani. It is a rewear and the dress is from an older collection of Armani. The dress itself is very simple the only ornament is the big bow with crystals. The black clutch she is wearing is also by Armani and there are also crystals attached on it. She is wearing black shoes and her wedding earrings.
ReplyDeleteI see that also King Philipp is wearing a new jacket made of a black velvet fabric. It looks a very appropriate jacket to assist at this Gala evening.
Beautiful Mathilde! MR
ReplyDeleteBlack is indeed a beautiful and elegant color.
ReplyDeleteI am not sure about the bow on the chest, but this dress works.
I like the king’s tuxedo.

DeleteThe bow is the only fantasy on this dress. If you take it away there is only a simple black dress left. Besides on an Armani dress one doesn't change anything.
Même avis que vous. Paloma.
DeleteBeautiful dress, stocking the correct colour for the shoes. The queen looks fabulous. Now the lady in the white dress, I don’t think the booties are particularly nice for the occasion.
ReplyDeleteRe the lady in the white dress, I’ve rarely seen dress + short booties in Europe. Long boots to the knees plus dress is very common in winter because it really works for the cold and is stylish. But shorter boots I’ve seen more commonly in Texas where summer dresses are paired with cowboy boots of all possible things! Maybe this lady in white is from Texas?! She looks cute but I too prefer shoes or long boots.
DeleteRien à redire sur son superbe look - Est-ce que son époux porte une veste en velours bleu ?
ReplyDeleteWould be fun to see her cut her hair to this length for a change…I think this shape/style is very attractive on her.
