| On January 24, 2018, Queen Maxima of The Netherlands, King Philippe and Queen Mathilde of Belgium, King Abdullah II and Queen Rania of Jordan, Crown Prince Haakon and Crown Princess Mette-Marit of Norway attended the 48th annual meeting of the World Economic Forum (WEF) in Davos, Switzerland. |
Maxima's; NATAN
CHLOE Wool and Cashmere-Blend Felt Coat
Only Mette-Marit and Mrs. Argentina look fine. Mathilde's look is too busy, Maxima's suit does not fit her and Rania! What is that outfit? Shiny blouse gets barely a pass, skirt is very very strange!
ReplyDeleteMaxima should retire that suit - jacket is too tight, the pants are too baggy. Rania's outfit is just weird.
ReplyDelete(I'm not sure why royals are at such a conference...)
In countries with monarchies the King (or Queen) is the head of state. I have no explanation for the presence of their consorts or heirs.
DeleteI understand they are heads of state but political decisions are made by politicians in countries with constitutional monarchies. Example: Canada's "head of state" is Queen Rlizabeth but she hasn't attended, whereas our Prime Minister has.
DeleteThere is even less reason for Royal spouses to be there.
This is at the World Economic Forum. Apart from being consort of our king, our queen Máxima is (amongst others) the United Nations Secretary General’s Special Advocate for Inclusive Finance for Development (UNSGSA). She has a job to do.

DeleteRoyals are prominent figures also with their public work, charity, events they take part etc. They get to be heart, so they are very important in indoctrination even when most of them has no political power.
DeleteThe constitucional role of King Felipe VI lets him go to Davos as HM assumes the highest representación of the Spanish State un international relations.
DeleteOnly Juliana, first lady of Argentina is very well dressed.
ReplyDeleteFor some it is only another catwalk. Which reminds me: where is Letti?
ReplyDeleteThis is fashionwise a complete desaster!
ReplyDeleteMaybe that was a good thing and they had better things to do. Actually I am happy Maxima had this much low key this time, she could have stolen all the attention in her regular "Maxima look".
DeleteI generally find Rania very forward and innovative where fashion is concerned, but what has happened? These skirts are just ugly, and the combat/granny boots? I do like them with jeans an miniskirts, specially if you are under 40, but oh my Lord!! That ribbed sweater reminiscent of the 70's with the light skirt... IMO big faux pas.
ReplyDeleteYes, all the skirts she has worn these days are hideous but specially the light one... horrible with those granny boots.
DeleteThey are there to work and share ideas. Hope it is a good week for all!
ReplyDeleteI think Queen Mathilde looks quite elegant. I would love to see her jacket more clearly. It looks very pretty. I find when she is at this sort of event rather than doing her "Queen" work, she looks quite stylish. Queen Rania is extremely intelligent and very pretty, but she does choose some strange things to wear. The Argentinian first lady is always elegant and I think Crown Princess Mette-Marit looks lovely. Queen Maxima looks okay,definitely not the place to be flamboyant. She looks seriously working.
ReplyDeleteWillem Alexander wasn't there. Juist Máxima.
