On Tuesday, July 7, 2026, Grand Duchess Stéphanie, accompanied by Minister Eric Thill, visited the exhibition The Nature of Edward Steichen, which brings together a selection of photographs illustrating the artist's distinctive vision of the beauty of the natural world.
As part of the Rencontres de la Photographie festival in Arles, the non-profit association Lët'z Arles, which is celebrating its 10th anniversary this year, is paying tribute to Luxembourgish photographer Edward Steichen with an exhibition dedicated to his fascination with nature.
Following the exhibition, the Grand Duchess also attended the presentation of the book Edward Steichen – Nature on Stage, which explores this lesser-known passion of the artist and the important role it played throughout his work.
The pattern and the colours of Stephanie,'s dress are a question of personal taste and there are people who like it, so why not. But (for me at least) it is not just a question of personal taste that for such a pattern not to be totally overwhelming, the surface should be smaller: short or cap sleeves or even better: no sleeves and hem just under the knee. But worn as it is: a big No.
ردحذفThe second dress (looked up elsewhere) is a smaller floral print green-only on white background and illustrates part of my above point (10:24) nicely: cap or double-cap sleeves, smaller unicolor print. Were it not for the length, it would be perfect.
حذفYou explained the issue perfectly! The bold pattern and colors have taken over. I like the cut of the dress because it’s structured with clean lines and think it would be great in different fabric.
حذفThe reasons why I don't like this floral dress for Stephanie are too many to enumerate. Even if the design were totally different, the huge bright pattern would still take attention away from her warm, smiling face, and dominate her colouring and features.
ردحذفBy way of contrast, the white printed maxi-dress Stephanie is wearing in the last photo, (from what we can see) looks light, graceful, and summery, with a touch of Grecian goddess which I think Stephanie channels effortlessly. It's a charming photo. Lyra
Lovely summery colors in the first dress but the overall appearance is a bit busy
ردحذفfor my liking.
I prefer the softer colors of Stephanie's second dress.

Ze heeft zo'n symphatieke uitstraling , jammer ze kan er zoveel beter uitzien, ze verdient een beter stylist.
ردحذفVolgens mij heeft zij geen stylist.
حذفStephanie seems overwhelmed by the loud pattern in this dress. Not a good look for her.
ردحذفLove her flowery dresses, especially under a heat dome in Europe. Stephanie comes across as very friendly & personable. -Ann
ردحذفBig floral prints are very bold. The yellow colour is even more striking. The print is hard on the eyes but it certainly makes Stephanie stand out in the crowd. That's a plus for royalty.
ردحذفI am not doing cartwheels over this dress, but at least the fabric does not look like you would use it to line the inside of a coffin as some of her fabrics do!
ردحذفI have a little more liking for her second dress here, the first one overwhelms her with the huge rose pattern. Also, her (golden?) hair clip has moved down the ponytail so that the elastic band became visible. It was not secured properly.
ردحذفOh golly, I love Stephanie but I am surprised to see her in this gigantic floral print; I thought that avoiding gigantic floral prints was a fashion rule universally understood by us curvy ladies.
ردحذفI actually had a tablecloth that looks like that. Don't care for this dress
ردحذفThe big yellow flowers and the high waist makes this dress everything what GD Stéphanie doesn't suit. She has better summer dresses from 2025 or even earlier in her dressing room.
ردحذفIt's a nice try, but this doesn't work. It's overwhelming her head to toe. But it does make her stand out :)
