    Fabulous dress and coat! The tights should be opaque and wish for a different earring, but a good start to the trip.

    Stupendo il cappotto bianco, Matilde inizia benissimo e mi piace parecchio.

      Yes, this white coat is very elegant. I am not so sure about the dress - but the combination in black and white looks good. Anyway the pattern of the dress reminds one of exotic animals like zebras, African animals.

    2. Assume they were moving form the airport straight to another function. The dress looks good from what can be seen of it and I love the coat.

  8. The Queen looks well groomed. I'm not sure of the dress, I would like to see how it looks without the coat. The coat and black accessories look splendid.

    Mathilde looks wonderful here. Must say on a personal note that I am glad she is wearing the coat because the photo of the dress on the model makes my head swim!

    She looks lovely, and I don’t think is a cocktail dress, as mentioned above. I would’ve chosen natural pantyhose, the black looks a little jarring next to the crisp white, just a matter of taste.

    Is this our beloved Queen Mathilde? Finally a shorter dress with a slim silhouette. This is what I always knew she could look like! Sexy, stylish, elegant, classy, self-confident, like a run-way model with her height and long, beautiful legs. Well done, QM! S.M.

    The coat and dress are lovely, would ditch the earrings, they look tacky, overall the Queen is lovely. Edwina

    What is the aim of the visit? Strange timing. Ukraine agenda?

    Such an elegant queen. If I ever found myself in a place /time/situation where Armani was an option, I would certainly would choose Armani (and perhaps Dior) over other designers. Just me.
