Christine Bekaert Poppy Small Earrings
Just WOW in everything!!!!
ReplyDeleteShe is actually wearing Poppy Large earings. Small version might have been better. The Large model is here https://christinebekaert.kmoshops.be/Poppy-Large-p171942769
ReplyDeleteStunning look by QM; this model and colour suit her wonderful. Only wish she would have hold the flower bouquet a bit lower. Earrings, though big, are gorgeous.

Queen Mathilde's gown is gorgeous, and her hair and makeup look divine. She is beautiful. However, the earrings are too large, in my opinion; the lower flower needs to be removed. (Debra)
ReplyDeleteI agree, although Mathilde is tall, she has a delicate facial structure. She insists on wearing over-sized earrings, but I think smaller, more delicate designs would be more attractive on her. Gown and hair are lovely. S.M.
DeleteThis is a beautiful style dress for Mathilde and she looks very good in it. It is a style that suits her figure well. I also like the colour on its own, but I fear that it overwhelms her and her paler skin tone. I'd have preferred smaller earrings as well.

Something QMathilde has in common with QMaxima : they both like big earrings. Together with her bracelet and clutch by Caroline Herrera these golden earrings match the dress very well. No brooch or necklace required.
ReplyDeleteLast sunday Queen Mathilde took part at the 20km run in Brussels together with Prince Emmanuel. Queen Mathilde walked the 20km, Prince Emmanuel did the same distance by running. Photo's can be seen on Monarchie.be
Magnifique robe dans laquelle Mathilde a une belle silhouette ; ses boucles d'oreilles originales devraient comporter les fleurs d'égales proportions comme la supérieure !
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love this show-stopper dress on QM. The statement earrings are fabulous too, and less formal than some of her finer, diamond pieces. The very simple, minimal hairstyle is perfect for this look too. (V.M.)
ReplyDeleteAlthough I truly like this dress both color and style, I don’t think is a good fit for her, the bodice is meant to be bloused, but the waist is too small for her and it looks like an stretched elastic up close, it spoils the look and it makes her look off. I also think the earrings are too big, the dress is a lot on in itself.

Good analysis.
DeleteI too think that the dress isn´t sitting quite right on her. It´s a stunning design but not living up to its potential. I don´t think the width of the waist is the problem here but the placement. It needs to be far lower in order to create the bloused effect in the bodice, but instead it is pulled flat.
Also, I think the colour is a bit too strong. It would have looked better a bit muted, much like the velvet chairs in the first picture.
Mathilde is short-waisted & smaller on top. Some designs do not fit her as they should. *Regina
DeleteQM hasn't had a hit in a while but YAAAASS to everything here...color, style, hair, makeup. She Mathilde looks radiant!
ReplyDeleteStunning !!!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous look from Queen Mathilde!!! Only wish she had chose the smaller version of the poppy earrings (how in the world she can wear such heavy earrings is beyond me). However, she looks incredibly elegant.

Just perfect. This gown is fantastic and are the earrings.
ReplyDeleteAgree

I love the design of this evening gown, it has some interesting features. The bodice/waist IMO is problematic, waist positioning, hence not sitting as well as it should. Her up do is perfect. The earrings are lovely, but overpowering, one leaf would have sufficed. Simple diamond stud earrings would have looked good , the gown is dominating enough. The small evening clutch is gorgeous. She looks beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI wonder whether Mathilde's ensemble is theme- based...the poppy!
DeletePoppy red for her magnificent and flouncing gown plus cape and poppy earrings.
Anyway, I think the dress suits her so well.
Her height and statuesque body allow her to don this dazzling outfit.
Love her updo as well.

ReplyDeleteSince most of the bloggers like QMathilde's dress very much, the waist problem isn't a problem anymore and it is certainly not Natan's fault because he did not designed this gown. I suggest nobody speaks about her waist anymore. We cannot not speak about other queens and princesses imperfections either. Lucky QMathilde wears the clothes and earrings that she likes, whether the bloggers like it or not and one must admit that she is not boring, She dares different styles, sometimes it is stunning, sometimes it does not fit very well. At least she tried and as one cannot do good for everyone she'd better wears what she likes.
ReplyDeletebig wow, she looks fantastic, just would have chosen other earrings
