      11.25 … it’s a Queen, wearing a neat navy dress, nicely coordinated accessories, meeting people who greet her with respect. That is in no way “totally wrong”.

      Your statement/post definitely is. Q Maxima is one of the hardest working royals, ever. Give her grace and leave her alone.

      @11:25: "Totally wrong" is not really a content worth to be published. If you don't have anything interesting to say, you could be quiet.

    4. 11.25 probably means outfit is totally wrong, without involving other aspects, I hope so.
      But navy blue dress is not attractive at all, IMV

    It's so interesting to see her be subdued. I like this a lot. It's great seeing a modern black dress NOT for mourning. And I love the addition of the shoes and purse in candy apple red. Very nice. Her hair looks great, too.

      Now you found the word I was looking for : "subdued". It is a surprise, but why not, she looks impeccable, only not quite like herself. Even the shoe colour is subdued, and the heels are lower than usual. I am sure she giggled when she put it together ("hihi, today we do our most modest" :-)

    Nothing wrong with a simple little black dress.

    Ze is meer in het buitenland dan in Nederland.

      Inderdaad. Ze zou beter wat harder werken voor de Nederlanders!

  5. J’aime les lignes sobres de ce modèle que je vois bleu nuit ; Maxima a su assortir judicieusement la couleur Bordeaux de sa pochette avec celle des chaussures - Sur la dernière photo, élégante la dame à lunettes dont la combinaison veste/pantalon
    est de couleur bleu pétrole !

    On first glance I was taken by surprised, not recalling her wearing a dark dress without a hat or jewels. Looking closer perfect length, the sleeves work nicely, shoes perfect for a dash of colour. Unexpected a new mature look which suits her well.

    I like this slightly different take on a shirt dress with the interesting sleeve design and burgundy/red accessories. A classic outfit appropriate for a serious work meeting.

    Veel Nederlanders vinden haar optreden in dit verband ongepast, ze kan als koningin in eigen land veel meer betekenen dan ze nu doet, maar Max is nu eenmaal liever in het buitenland. De kleding is netjes, de Natan schoenen erg gezocht en gekopieerd van andere ontwerpers, helaas zit het kapsel wederom slordig.

    Est ce du noir ? Si c'est le cas, cela ne va pas à Maxima. Seule teinte qui ne lui sied pas. Et en plus en été non !

    I find Queen Maxima's outfit lovely.. The rich color of the shoes/purse add more interest. I am excited to watch how Maxima's style has evolved over the years and is more classic and chic than the flamboyant jewelry and outfits she once chose. As for black dresses, imo they go well for almost every occasion and never disappoint. The idea of wearing black only for mourning is either a nutty or old-fashioned viewpoint. Black is one of my "go-to" colors for basic elegance.

    I hope she doesn't raise her arms too high. or we will be seeing alot more given how low the armholes are. Trust me too my embarrassment when i wore a dress like that 25years ago (in my younger days)

  13. This is a very interesting dress. I don't mind it, but something not right with sleeves/shoulder or armhole areas? I'm not sure. I like the deep Navy color, I do like the contrasting shoe and clutch color.

    @19:34 - I agree. As for all the excuses for her hair, if she had a good hairdresser it would not be such a mess. A simple bob style or just brush it before appearing in public.
    The dress looks like a large sack, not `subdued` just rather ugly,imo!
