On 8 March 2021, Queen Maxima provided virtual opening remark at a high-level event to launch a global call to action on reaching financial equality on International Women’s Day. The Queen attended in her capacity as the United Nations Secretary-General’s Special Advocate for Inclusive Finance for Development (UNSGSA). The event was organized by the Better than Cash Alliance, United Nations Capital Development Fund, Women’s World Banking, and the World Bank.
Giambattista Valli Polka-dot Paneled Silk Dress
C'est peut-être un élégant modèle mais les empiècements partant de chaque côté de sa poitrine verticalement et surtout de couleur différente ne flattent pas vraiment Maxima ; on dirait qu'il y a un petit changement de coiffure avec un joli mouvement qui peut aller de droite à gauche !
ReplyDeleteOn the hair side, I agree with Tulipe.
DeleteLovely to see Queen Maxima again. I've missed her and a great event where she can use her own particular skills. Sadly, I can find no love for the dress, which I think is absolutely awful
ReplyDeleteLove the dress and the color looks great on her.
ReplyDeleteThis is truly one of the worst creations I have ever seen. It even looks bad on the model. It clings in all the wrong places and somehow non of the fabrics seem to go with any other. Perhaps a great conception carried out in totally non suitable fabrics. This is the second time I have seen her in it it was just as bad the first time.
ReplyDeleteShe has not a clue stylewise. She should hire Mary of Demark’s stylist.
DeleteO dear, I have just uttered criticism on Maxima. Some on this forum will be hurt again.

I disagree with nalerina.
DeleteI'm also very happy to see Maxima again. It's been a while.
ReplyDeleteAs for the dress, It is beautiful as shown on the bottom far right of the last photos, but is definitely not a style I would choose for Maxima.
Her figure proportions and the dress do not match. I also prefer the dress as full length instead of the midi version Maxima is wearing. However as long as she is sitting down and we can only see the top part, it does no harm.

Oh my, I thought the messy hair was bad, then I saw the dress. Who would pay good money for that mess of fabrics. It really is not good looking. nelie
ReplyDeleteMaxima’s hair looks fabulous! Very full, very healthy and I love straight blow-out.
ReplyDeleteHaha, this is irony I hope....

For those who want to dress with some originality, it is a nice dress. So no unanimity to be expected ... Personally I like in that styling category. I would not mind wearing it with the length she chose.
ReplyDeleteI actually like this dress a lot, but I don’t think it fits her style, this is not the kind of dress that you wear with high heels and a very prim clutch, it’s very bohemian, could look great worn with flat sandals or booties. Won’t even talk about the hair, no sir not going to go there.....

The dress ........ the dress ........ well it's different isn't it?
ReplyDeleteWithout the penguin wings it could be interesting.
