On the morning of Thursday, 10 September 2026, Queen Máxima of the Netherlands attended a symposium of the national Appropriate Care and Care Evaluation Programme (ZE&GG) at Green Village in Nieuwegein, Utrecht. ‘Less is More’ is a movement that contributes to appropriate care in the Netherlands.
Queen Máxima attended the opening of the ‘Ask Anything’ market, where healthcare professionals can obtain and exchange information and expertise for their own ‘Less is More’ projects. She subsequently attended an interactive workshop on implementing changes in healthcare practice. For the occasion, Queen Máxima wore a modified outfit by the fashion house Natan, consisting of a blouse and skirt, with the skirt shortened.
NATAN Delica Dress






Interesting changes to the original design. She wears this colour well. I like the colour of her shoes, they seem to be a gray black on my screen.
ReplyDeleteCe modèle de robe est parfait pour Maxima avec une longueur qui lui sied à merveille !
ReplyDeleteMost of the time, I love her outfits as outrageous as they sometimes are. But this time, this is hideous, matronly, careless. She must be tired and didn't even try to make an effort. So sorry because I like her very much. But, hey, we are all allowed to have our les fortunate days.
ReplyDeleteI cannot see what you see. This is not hideous (that’s a very strong word, eg if you come across a corpse), matronly, nor careless. It’s at least carefully put together even if you don’t like the pattern. I really love it, I think it’s a gorgeous set of colours for her and for autumn, styled with careful attention. As I can imagine a willowy 20-something wearing it too, I also don’t find it matronly. Maybe you just don’t like it? That’s ok too, and the fun of fashion.
DeleteThe show must go on ;))
ReplyDeleteYou’ve written this several times on several posts and I don’t know what you’re trying to provoke but please write something meaningful and not inane.
DeleteTo “ less is more” in an other new outfit, hmm…..
ReplyDeleteIndeed. I do think royals should be more ambassadors for sustainable fashion. The clothing industry is one of the most polluting industries in the world
DeleteHow do you know that she doesn’t rewear her clothes. We all buy new clothing.
DeleteThe dress and overall appearance is sloppy. Not her best look for sure.
ReplyDelete“For sure”?… or for you? I love this look on Maxima and don’t see a millimetre of anything sloppy. It’s beautifully ironed, sleek, well fitted, cinched with a belt which really matches well, elegant shoes which match, etc. I find it a very beautiful outfit and look forward to plenty of rewears.
DeleteThe print of this dress is unusual but very imaginative especially the modification of the other versions. I like the addition of the belt and the border section is striking.
ReplyDeleteSame!
DeleteNice dress.

Not sure why I like this outfit but Ido. It looks both smart and comfortable with the loose fitting blouse and the unusual pattern on the skirt. Fab shoes of course. I also like the simple casual outfit of bright blouse and cream trousers of the lady accompanying the Queen in the first couple of pictures
ReplyDeleteLess is More and wearing Natan? Maxima is the antithesis of less is more.
ReplyDeleteBoring dress undoubtedly extremely expensive; this time the hair looks better with too many extensions.
