On July 16, 2021, Queen Maxima, King Willem-Alexander, Princess Amalia, Princess Alexia and Princess Ariane posed for the media during the annual summer photo session at Huis ten Bosch Palace in The Hague. Traditionally, Dutch royals pose for the media once in the summer and again at the beginning of their skiing holiday, and in return, the media respects their privacy outside of royal engagements.

Absolutely not. I don't like any outfits

Stimme ich absolut zu..
DeleteAgree with Susana
DeleteI agree. They are nice looking but have no taste in clothing and it really distracts.

ck - they do have taste in clothing, it just isn't the same as yours.

Agree with you
DeleteMolto carino e solare il vestito giallo e bianco della regina,
ReplyDeleteMolto carino e solare il vestito giallo e bianco della regina,
ReplyDeleteThese girls are all blossoming into beauties just like their mother. Queen Maxima looks fantastic and I love her dress and belt too.
ReplyDeleteMaxima- ok, wouldn’t be here without a MASSIVE belt
ReplyDeleteAmelia- ok, if a little old on the top half
Alexia-awful, thought she was the one interested in fashion
Ariane- lovely,suited her and the occasion
W-A - he looks nice in a different coloured jacket and appears to have had a very quick haircut from yesterday

In Spanien gäbe es so eine Durcheinander nicht.
ReplyDeleteDas können Sie laut sagen,
DeleteDöni!
The Spanish are really stylish !
DeleteThe Spanish are really stylish. They do have good taste!
DeleteThey Spanish have really good taste unlike this bunch.

DeleteArianne wins the day. Her dress is stylish and looks great on her. Amalia looks to be dressing for her position, she looks good in red. Alexia's clothing does not fit her at all, looks awful. WA looks stylish in his colored blazer. Maxima and her huge belts, oh my.

YES Ariane wins the day, by far, and has already been the winner over some months IMV !! She wears a lovely teenager dress. I actually like the summer dress of Qn Maxima, even with the belt, although I am not a fan of huge belts ! And I will also conclude with a quite positive comment on the King WA. Amalia did a good choice with the red blazer.
DeleteEveryone looks great. Comfortable, in their own style. I especially like Amalia's outfit with the red blazer. I think she looks amazing this year.
ReplyDelete(Although I must admit I am a bit disappointed that they didn't colour-coordinate this year. Is that bad?)

They seem to be a loving family, and all are well groomed. I think Maxima's dress is very pretty. I even like the ruffle and the belt. Ariane is dressed very cute. I love her outfit. I think Alexia would have looked better with a different blouse. The bulbous sleeves are not to my liking. This may be my favorite look for Amalia. The dark jeans, black and white top with coordinating clutch, and the red blazer look very nice. I like the color combination of the king's ensemble. The daughters seem to have been given free rein on their choice of clothing for the photo session. They are growing more confident.
ReplyDeleteSymphatische Familie strahlt Herzlichkeit aus.
ReplyDeleteDie Bekleidung wirkt wie eine bunte Mischung
aus allen Stilen und Farben, wie
es nur möglich ist, das gefällt mir nicht.
Sympathetic family radiates warmth.
The clothes look like a colorful mix
from all styles and colors, like
it is only possible. I do not like it.
Ein buntes Gemisch , eigentlich schade in solch einer ele
Deleteganten Umgebung !!
Nothing really exciting here. In fact, I am somewhat disappointed given this was an official photo shoot. It seems that nobody made any kind of effort and they all rather look as though they dropped just whatever they were doing to go outside for a few pics.
ReplyDeleteI like the Queen’s dress and shoes but the belt gives me 70’s vibes….personally, I think something more subtle would have worked better.
At least QM’s hair has been done and is not the usual mess.
Do not care for these clothing choices. Maxima should do more appearances with her daughters, when she does she has nicely styled hair.
ReplyDeleteShelley
Well, for a relaxed summer photo shoot, I think they all look very good. There’s real individuality in the outfits they’ve chosen. The oldest girl is going to be an absolute stunner! She has such a regal ‘presence’ already. (V.M.)
ReplyDeleteThey look colourful I like it. Mary I
ReplyDeleteI like all the colours and patterns/textures but not the cuts.
ReplyDeleteGreat family pictures. They all look amazing. Stronger together, that's what they are.
ReplyDeleteI am curious. Who carries their purse to a photo shoot?
ReplyDeleteNot fond of the way Maxima's toes are hanging way over the front of the sandals. (better photo of this on a commercial site) Hair has been styled, nice to see. Dress, not my cup of tea, but not ugly.
King: Odd color for a jacket, needs a shave. A pale blue shirt would look better with that color jacket, than white, especially with the navy pants/shoes.
Oldest daughter: Strange combination with jacket, pants with seams semi bleached out and way too tight, hair is nice, flat shoes would have looked better.
Middle daughter: totally too casual for an 'offical summer photo shoot,' hair could have used a wash and blow dry
Youngest daughter: Hair could have used a wash, blow dry. Dress not a good fit, and way too short, and heels should have been summer flats. JMHO ... jj
Princess Amalia looks really good in these photos. Her outfit is by far the best in my opinion.
ReplyDeleteEveryone's idea of a summer photo shoot is different, for ordinary families as well as Royalty. Some like to coordinate a themed look (which is often not how they would dress in real life) while others prefer to be themselves, wearing whatever they are comfortable in as an expression of their personalities. I know many families like this and this family falls in that category. I'm fine with that.
ReplyDeleteWe know they like color (think of the past several years when they have worn very colourful clothes) and they have continued here again. No one is repeating a colour. All of them look comfortable in their own style and most of all, happy. (The video of the shoot will prove this. There are some lovely moments there.)
Maxima and Amalia would be my favs here. King WA looks every bit the proud husband and father, and with good reason. Happy Summer to all.

Loving family in beautiful photos! The princesses are growing up into lovely young ladies. I love Ariane's choice today--it looks wonderful on her. Amalia is looking very grown up and her choice of outfit could be quite professional if she were wearing navy trousers instead of jeans. Alexia looks like many teenaged girls I see and I think her choice is fine--she could up the game a bit by adding a pair of heels for a different vibe to her look but she's like millions of girls her age with the trainers. Wax and Max are looking great--his attire is perfect business casual and Max is doing her usual big belt thing but her dress is very pretty and summery.
ReplyDeleteMaxima's hair looks great. I love her shoes. I don't like the print but the cut and fit of her dress is flattering. Amalia looks great. She looks relaxed and comfortable. Ariane's dress is pretty. She may end up being the tallest of the sisters. Alexia's outfit is okay. I don't love it but I don't hate it either.
ReplyDeleteE.B.B.
The girls have the same poor taste as their mother when choosing their outfits.
ReplyDeleteThe queen's huge belt does not look good, Alexia's green pants are too tight and the blouse is shapeless, Ariane's dress is cute but the shoes don't go well with the dress. Amalia's outfit is better than last year's dress, but why is she holding a purse outdoors?
Bearing in mind this general mix of styles, I modestly believe the shoes of Ariane are only a detail, although I am convinced about the relevance of adequate shoes in general.
DeleteThe belt buckle on Queen Maxima is so huge that it looks uncomfortable and over powers the dress. On the model the dress looks so much more refined and understated with the matching belt.
ReplyDeleteTrès belle palette de couleurs mais je préfère la toilette estivale de Maxima ; il me semble qu'une ceinture plus fine en tissu de la même couleur aurait mieux convenu ; bien mignonne la robe d'Ariane mais avec un peu plus de longueur à hauteur du genou, cela n'aurait pas empêché de voir ses belles jambes ; parfait avec ses petits talons !
ReplyDeleteI think they all seem so happy. I love that they are all individual in their choices and confident about what they have decided to wear. These girls will never be followers and there is nothing wrong in that. Go girls!
ReplyDeleteNo me gustan, ninguna chica de la edad de Amalia se viste asi, la mediana
ReplyDeletefatal , la pequeña el vestido tampoco corresponde una niña de 13 años,
no tienen buen gusto, las chicas jovenes no se visten asi.
La robe de Maxima se regarde, mais cette idée de toujours mettre un maxi chapeau , un maxi collier , des maxi talons, et là une maxi ceinture.
ReplyDeleteLe reste fait peur,tant sur les couleurs, que sur les formes.

Very elegant summer dress of Máxima. The belt "breaks" the dress which I think is nice. Amalia, much better and younger dressed than last year, but she has a bit of a complicated figure. Would love to have her fantastic hair. Alexia's green trousers and blouse : no taste. The dress of the youngest one really cute
ReplyDeleteThe girls are all lovely but their outfits are just nothin special and very ordinary. Maxima looks great as usual.
ReplyDeleteCan someone identify Maximas wedges? Love them so much!
ReplyDeleteSnel op vakantie naar Griekenland, het volk in de ondergelopen gebieden in ontreddering achterlatend.

I doubt the young princesses are reading our comments but am still surprised at the harsh comments. Ariane looks just lovely – the dress, the smile, adorable! I do like the shade of Alexia's hair, it really stands out among her family. Amalia appears to be dressed rather formally and it suits her very well. I like the ensemble. Did she go to another engagement afterwards? –– S.
ReplyDeleteThey look natural, young and each one wearing what they wanted to wear, Great picture.
ReplyDeleteA royal mess…. they have money but no taste whatsoever…. Especially the middle daughter is badly dressed.
