King Willem-Alexander and Queen Máxima are undertaking a working visit to the United States from April 13 to 15, 2026. On the evening of April 13, 2026, the King and Queen attended a dinner at the White House in Washington at the invitation of President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump. Prime Minister Jetten also attended the dinner. For the occasion, Queen Máxima wore a new orange dress by Claes Iversen.
Excellent look for Maxima although the colour is a bit autumnal, imo.
ReplyDeleteThe First Lady is sporting a ‘I don’t really care, do you?’ dress, unless someone was busy with a Sharpie. Queen Maxima on the other hand, nailed it.
ReplyDeleteSeriously...what a catty remark about the First Lady.
DeleteIf someone said that about your Queen Maxima you'd have a fit.

Love your comment! 😆
DeleteLooks like her husband’s signature done at 4 am & his penchant to put his name Everywhere!!🤣
DeleteMelania looks gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteI think the tension has become too much for Maxima. The style of the dress is neat, but the color is far too monotonous. And once again, far too much fake hair.
Stop the hair comments or go somewhere else to live out your negativity.
DeleteToo much? Like Kate you mean? No this is stylish and well done…
DeleteMy opinion is totally opposite. Maxima looks gorgeous in a stunning sophisticated colour and outfit. Melania looks vacuous.
DeleteThe tension is too much for Maxima? She has nothing to worry about. her name wasn't in any files
DeleteA new Claes Yversen dress. Really sophisticated, royal. She is looking adorable chique
ReplyDeleteMaxima porte à ravir cette nouvelle robe ; j’espère que nous la lui verrons plus souvent de
ReplyDeleteretour au pays !
Wowza, two beautiful elegant women. Máxima (with the help of excellent Claes Iversen) succeeds to be both at the same time: simple and extraordinary. I don't *really* like what the First Lady is wearing, but she looks nevertheless great in it.
ReplyDeleteI like everything about Queen Maxima's appearance!!! I do not like the First Lady's dress.
ReplyDeleteFor those who criticize the colour of this elegant creation, please bear in mind that the Durch royal family’s name is the House of Orange, the shade of this dress is most certainly intentional, especially in the presence of president Trump. Small but proud country!!!

Maxima and Melania appear to be dressed for different seasons.
ReplyDeleteie Maxima for Autumn and Melania for Summer.
Cate.
Maxima looks fabulous in this burnt orange dress. The draping of fabric from the shoulder into a side flounce is spectacular and dramatic but not ostentatious. She stands in sharp contrast to Melania whose dress is hard on the eyes. The haphazard pattern of the black embroidery or whatever it is just doesn't look attractive IMHO. If I had to look at it for longer than a few minutes I would get dizzy.
ReplyDeleteDid Mrs. Trump not have time to iron the dress after a signature was put on it? Or is it a drawing with a marker? Maxima is beautiful, the color refers to the House of Orange, beautiful jewelry, and not over the top. Appropriate for a business visit.
ReplyDeleteTrump looks quite grumpy in all the pictures. I do like the black and white dress on Melania Trump, weird pattern or not. Queen Maxima, well, nice enough but nothing outstanding. I truly expected something more flamboyant.
ReplyDeleteMaxima wears a “ decent” elderly lady dress, quiet chique, with alas, a bit too much “ blond” hair, but modesty is good in this situation. ( for next time: the colour of your nails must be in tune with the dress)
ReplyDeleteI would absolutely love Maxima's dress in a different color, envisioning a coral pink. She looks slim and her hair is beautiful, doesn't matter whose hair it is.
ReplyDeleteMaxima looks great in the dress, the colour representing the house of orange. Her hair looks nice. I find Melania’s with the bold design a means of drawing attention to herself instead of her guest, typical. The fit is nice on her and in a different setting it would be appropriate and nice. I do like her shoes.
ReplyDeleteMáxima looks beautiful in her orange dress, representing the Netherlands in its color. I like the diagonal drape-type detail with the waistband. I wasn’t sure I completely liked Mrs. Trump’s dress - the black design is a bit much - but looking at the pictures more, it does coordinate nicely with the white exterior of The White House and the black stair railing.

Spectacular dress worn by the First Lady.
ReplyDeleteMaxima and the King look sophisticated and beautiful. I am so upset at the evil being perpetuated by the others that they deserve no comment.
ReplyDeleteLove this dress on the Queen. Great fit, length, and the shoulder to hip detail makes it modern and sophisticated.
ReplyDeleteSo far Máxima hasn’t missed on this trip. She looks fabulous.
