On July 1, 2020, Queen Maxima of The Netherlands visited theater De Nieuwe Regentes in The Hague. Queen Maxima met representatives of the Creative Coalition, a collaboration of professional associations in the creative sector, to improve the labor market situation of freelancers and spoke to them about the consequences of the corona pandemic for freelancers in the creative sector.
De Nieuwe Regentes is an entrepreneurial theatre with several characterful rooms and halls that can be used for plays, concerts, business events and parties. The building that houses De Nieuwe Regentes dates from 1920. It once contained the largest indoor swimming pool and baths in Europe. Queen Maxima's outfit is by Belgian fashion house Natan.

Beautiful esemble, but the hair..
ReplyDeleteOn seeing the first picture I thought: at last, she looks nice.
ReplyDeleteSeeing the next pictures changed my mind: you cannot sit like that, Y.M. , how uncomfortable the chair may be.
Anon at 11.16PM: ...Exactly my thoughts. So many times nowadays I think it´s all just for the show and job, but not from the inside. There lies something deeper in between, maybe...
Delete@rainha, you can be sure about. She is so fake and even not elegant at all.
DeleteCulotte, culottes, she loves her culottes! Though I don’t really mind this outfit even if it is Natan.Its not offensive, its not flashy and its a re-wear too
ReplyDeleteShe is SO beautiful!
ReplyDeleteHer beauty comes from inside and radiates all around her!
Exactly. She is smashing: well educated, smart and sparkling. And this outfit is perfect. - Siri
DeleteYes, she has a special beauty. Always out there working and always lots of smiles. She gets the important points right. For the fashion side, hairdressing side etc. I think she does her best. She has my greatest respect. Bravo.
DeleteVery nice outfit!
ReplyDeleteThe hair, the way she is sitting, come on, you are a Queen.
ReplyDeleteYou are right beauty inside and out...she can wear anything and with that smile she can conquer the world!
ReplyDeleteLove her smile and joie de vivre but the culottes. Not a fan of culottes on anyone.

I was brought up that a lady does not sit that way. It has nothing to do with being a queen or not. That being said, maybe we need to accept that the days of royalty as we have always thought of it are changing. Each generation has become a little more relaxed and approachable. It is in line with the monarchies paring down. Maxima may be taking this a little too far, but her heart is in the right place. She takes her duties very seriously, and is very hard working. I can't get into her hair anymore. I refuse to care about it. We continue to see the same complaints over and over again. There could be a reason that we are unaware of why her hair is in such damaged condition. If she has a health condition causing it, it would be terrible so many people couldn't let go of it. She does give us plenty of other things to remark about.
ReplyDeleteShe radiates such beauty, her smile lights up the day. She is such a beautiful woman
ReplyDeleteThere's nothing queenly about Maxima -maybe only in state occasions when she wears a ton of jewelry. But for day to day, she doesn't wear well fitted clothes, and her hair is always terrible. It doesn't matter how much she smiles, she's a mess.
ReplyDeleteShe looks queenly in her own way (rather showy we could say), where looking relaxed and engaged tops all other features... I can understand that is not appealing to everyone, but times are changing, not in the direction everyone likes.
DeleteYes, Kteach, absolutely nothing queenly, royal, or special. The fish net looking top with these culottes is not a good overall look. As long as she continues to have have stringy, unhealthy hair...I will continue to comment about it. I do not think any smile, no matter the size, can make up for ill-fitting, unattractive clothes and messy hair.

Beautiful top, but oh those terrible culottes! Máxima is always really interessed and is doing a great Job as Queen in the Netherlands. Its not at all interesting how she sits cause after all its a working visit not an official occasion.
ReplyDeleteJ'adore le petit dégradé de couleurs entre ce très joli haut et le pantalon que je trouve vraiment trop large ; pas du tout élégant quand elle s'assoie !!! Elle porte cette tenue Natan de la collection printemps-été "2017" !!!
ReplyDeleteGuess what....I haven't read or heard ANYTHING in the Dutch news about the way she sits, or what she should or should not do. Thank God we are an enlightened nation and nobody cares how the queen SITS....
ReplyDeleteElenor
Nobody?
DeleteSee above comments.
Yes quite often the idea comes to my mind that we are commenting without taking into account the local culture and appreciation criteria or not.
DeleteLet's not be so critical. She is an empathetic woman elevated to royalty doing a wonderful job. Better to focus on the important aspects and not on what we all like in the fashion trends... uitsenkende y guapissima Maxima
ReplyDeleteAgree!
DeleteAgree astoundingly!
DeleteI love to see Queen Maxima. Full stop. However, on a fashion blog we are perhaps entitled to comment on what she wears. and how she looks? Like one of the Anons above, I can see little point in commenting on her hair. Thinking about how I , as a normal person not a public figure, feel when I see photos where my hair looks good and when it does not, there must be some reason for it. Never a fan of culottes but this outfit seems okay. Lovely colour and nice top--the full length version would be my preference. Great to see her out working.
ReplyDeleteWow, her clothes look nice here. She often looks nice in a monochromatic look. The shoes are great. As for the way she is sitting, really? People get that mad that she's crossing her legs? :) (I will, however, never stop wishing she would brush her hair)
