King Willem-Alexander and Queen Máxima are undertaking a working visit to the United States. On April 13, 2026, the King and Queen were welcomed by the Governor of Pennsylvania, Josh Shapiro, and First Lady Lori Shapiro. They were then given a tour of Independence Hall, highlighting the 250th anniversary of America’s independence and the Netherlands’ role in the American Revolution.

In the afternoon, the King and Queen visited Fishtown, a neighbourhood undergoing rapid change, where examples of American and Dutch art and architecture can be seen. The visit began at Kensington Creative & Performing Arts High School, where they were joined by Mayor Cherelle Parker. Elsewhere in the neighbourhood, they learned about Dutch architecture and murals and spoke with local residents.

  1. This dress, I love, interesting features that suit her beautifully. The color is sublime, I love this shade. Looks to be a brooch at her neckline. The darker shade shoes and clutch, clever addition. She looks very elegant. Her hair looks gorgeous!

    This is a very polished and professional look on Maxima.
    I love everything about the dress which surprises me as I don't usually like Natan creations.
    A really good hair day which perfects the look.

    Maxima looks truly wonderful here. The dress is feminine, flattering, and professionally elegant. She has also stopped planting her feet so wide apart like she is trying to stay upright. Best of all is her upgraded more natural makeup that highlights her lovely face and does not compete with it.

    Lovely outfit on Maxima. The skirts fits and flares so beautifully. I also liked her arrival trouser suit yesterday, with the matching wrap shawl. The colour of that was beautiful too.

    Stunning and beautiful queen. Natan seems to favour very heavy fabrics which don’t look comfortable but do work well in formal settings.

      It’s not Natan. It is Claes Iversen! Dutch design

      This is not Claes Iversen, it is Natan, look at the Admin's tags. And a typical Natan, that impossible neckline is shouting loud: "don't look at the woman, look at that design feature"! I don't like the top part at all and wide skirts are OK but Máxima is better in straight ones. The top neckline part is straight ugly for me.

      The Dutch websites concerning Queen Maxima all wrote it is a dress by Claes Iversen, a Danish designer who lives and works in The Netherlands. The dress is a rewear and was new for the enthronement of Grand Duke Guillaume of Luxembourg.
      I like this dress but, it would be much more beautiful with a straight skirt instead of a tent skirt.
      I prefer the orange dress by the same designer during the evening dinner at The White House.

      13:51 “please react normal”? The post has a tag NATAN on it, which is why we assumed it was Natan. Not enough to speak rudely to other commenters here.

      I also read elsewhere that this dress is NOT Natan.

    And yet another Natan?, il fitting at the top, shiny, drab color. But her wig looks nice for a change.

      Be so kind and call it "her hair". You can think whatever you like. But as long as you don't know anything for sure, you see hair and if you call it anything else, it says more about your negative attitude than about Máxima. Disgusting comment.

    This is not a Natan dress imv but Claes Yversen. A Danish designer who works in the Netherlands

  11. A mon avis, c'est une jolie robe mais elle lui conviendrait mieux avec la jupe plus près du corps ; choix judicieux que la broche sur cette sorte de nœud Lavallière !

    1. Changing the skirt would kill the global look. Either you buy from a classic designer OR accept the creativity of a trendy look.

    It matters not who designed the dress, the top looks as though it is strangling her, the material itself looks stiff, the skirt is too full - looks like the Liberty Bell itself. The colour is rather dull,imo.

      Apparently you don't like this fashion color for the spring and summer in Europe. Maybe other colors are fashion were you live. I agree that a straight skirt would be more elegant.

      It does matters who designed this dress. Commenters are used to put the blame on Natan, but he is not an exception. Other designers are using the same fabrics he uses and are creating similar dresses and skirts and jackets as Natan. Maybe this style is something you don't see often in your country, but in other countries its is common especially among royal and aristocratic ladies.

    @16:09- precisely, Natan is not the only designer to design clothes that are often odd in construction, but on this site they at worn regularly by 2 royal ladies and are rarely good. Perhaps totals from other countries are more discerning.
