Natan SS21 Collection
Today, a nooo!
ReplyDeleteI can add, if I had to wear that dress, I would be in tears. But I would be pleased to wear Maxima's version of the dress.
DeleteI am left (almost) speechless by this enormous blergh tent-like outfit (with attached green meadow, maybe as a camping site?). Not even Letizia (who can wear almost everything and look graceful in it), could wear a dress like this and look good. This is a vicious dress, would brings out the worst in any wearer. I will skip that headpiece completely. Mathilde, oh Mathilde, why? :-)

Ann, you have read my mind and written down my exact thoughts!
DeleteDear Ann ,
Deletebecause she and Maxima still buy many items from the house of Natan. I cannot for a moment think why. They have gorgeous fabrics quite often but what they do with them is sometimes downright criminal. This is a criminal case.
@nalerina 😂 Yes, Natan is guilty as charged!
DeleteLove her shoes and hat. I like the print but the material of the fabric, cut and fit are all wrong. The belt is awful.
ReplyDeleteE.B.B.
This whole outfit is so far off it seems... The headpiece looks a little like a towel and the dress is so unflattering it appears not to have been actually styled but swaddled. The effect is missing oven mitts or a pot of coffee...
ReplyDeleteCongratulations to the winners and I doubt they care of her attire. The Queen always seems so pleased to sponsor this event.
Almost a costume. At first glance I thought she was a diner waitress.
ReplyDeleteThe bottom of the dress is pretty.
Queen M usually dresses so nicely, but lately, she's had a lot of 'misses', like this outfit. The belt, horrible, the hat, from the side, looks like a nurses hat. The sleeves and neckline just do not go with the more fomal bottom and print on the skirt. Not a fan of the hemline that is not even, looks tacky. jj
ReplyDeleteIsn't this the same dress that Maxima word in blue today? Sure looks like it!
ReplyDeleteYes but so much better in the blue plain version.
DeleteNooooo on the model, and nooooo on the Queen. If you have an end of the year competition for worst dress of 2021, this one will be the winner! DIQ
ReplyDeletec'est la même robe que Maxima, mais Maxima elle est unie bleue
ReplyDeleteNot for her. Too much body for a dress like that. I'm sorry but it seems horrible to me.
ReplyDeleteSame for Máxima´dress

Absolutely horrid dress on a great lady.

I have been hesitating to comment the past few days because I haven't been liking much of anything. At least I am not alone here. Gosh, this is bad. The silhouette of this dress looks terrible on Mathilde. Why does Natan encourage a Queen to wear a dress that makes her look so much wider than she is? They are not helping their client or themselves. For someone that looks horrible in belts, she could not be wearing a worse belt. It is so large it is resting under her breasts when she sits. You would think she would step away from this dress just out of discomfort alone. I have to wonder why the House of Natan can go to the trouble to make Mathilde custom masks for each outfit but can't take the time to fit her clothes to her or make suggestions about what would look best on her. I don't care for the hat, but I have made no secret of the fact that I don't know much about current hat trends. ~d
ReplyDeleteThat Natan dress looks stiff & uncomfortable. The cuffs are awful. A big NO. ~Laurel~
ReplyDeleteAs my dear old mum would say being as polite as possible .....
ReplyDelete"well it's different, isn't it".
Wat een ramp, deze jurk! Mathilde komt meestal geweldig voor de dag!. Maar dit hele complet is echt treurig.
ReplyDeleteAh non, non, ce modèle aux jolis motifs dans une coupe un peu plus près du corps sur le bas et sans cette énorme ceinture aurait totalement mon adhésion ; ne parlons pas de la coiffe qui ne ressemble à rien du tout - Je fais suite à certains commentaires ; il me semble que c'est Natan qui propose et la clientèle dispose !
ReplyDeleteThe belt buckle is way too large for her frame. Also the sleeves cuffs are odd. This dress doesn't fit her -or Maxima- well.
