On April 19, 2023, King Willem-Alexander, Queen Maxima, Princess Amalia, Princess Ariane, Princess Beatrix and Princess Laurentien attended the King's Day (Koningsdag) concert at the RTM Stage in Rotterdam. Every year, the concert is held in the county where the Dutch Royal Family will celebrate King’s Day. The date of King's Day marks the birth of King Willem-Alexander, which is April 27.

Wow! What a fabulous outfit for Princess Laurentien. Usually she goes for quirky. This is just fab. As on their Caribbean tour, the Queen and Princess Amalia could have swapped outfits successfully. I like Amalia’s outfit and it suits her very well but she looks years older than she is. Princess Ariane is perfect. I’m not a fan of Queen Maxima’s tiered dress and the heavy black shoes don’t help. However, with the new hairstyle she’s looking great

One could almost say that Princess Laurentien has dressed down for the occasion. A pity as I always enjoy her quirky ensembles.
DeleteMaybe she was just having an off day 😁
I just adore Princess Laurentien. Well, most of the time. Certainly this time. I also like the outfit of the Princess of Orange, minus the far too shiny tights.
DeleteLaurentien definitely wins this fashion round, she looks great I agree. I also agree about Amalia, she looks good but older. Perhaps it's just her style (or the shiny tights). Perfect comments on Ariane and the Queen.

"Amalia’s outfit suits her very well but she looks years older than she is" YES ! The tights contribute to that impression. Very pretty pr. Ariane. Qn Maxima has a well coordinated ensemble. Laurentien is fine, I like this style better than earlier one.
DeleteQM: The style of the dress suits her frame. Works with black accessories. The shoes, no. All her platform shoes are real clunkers.
ReplyDeleteCPCA: Hair and make-up good. Navy colour universally flattering. Tights too shiny. Silver clutch and shoes, just okay. The style of the dress suits her figure. I just wish she would be more comfortable in her skin, not so self-conscious. Yes, the weather is probably chilly, but no matter the climate, she's always trying to hide under baggy or shapeless coats, capes, shawls etc. - only ending up drawing attention to it.
PA: Very pretty young lady. Lovely smile. Pant suit okay, but too sombre.
PL: No, no, and no. The ensemble is an eyesore.
PB: No comment about fashion. Just a joy to see.

Amalia looks better here than on her islands tour—perhaps more formal clothes suit her better than casual wear. The deep blue color is very pretty with her coloring. The standout here is Ariane—very lovely face and simple, elegant ensemble which she wears as opposed to it wearing her.
ReplyDeleteAll the Royal ladies look superb.
ReplyDeleteTotally agree. Queen Maxima's hair looks amazing.
DeleteThey all look good, especially Maxima and her youngest daughter.

The sisters look quit good, great support for each other.
ReplyDeleteThis is not Maxima’s kind of dress: too ordinary.
The black shawl doesnot add anything,

I am very glad that Amalia has chosen a dark simple dress. This is so much better for her figure. She looks tealy good, together with her fantastic hair and make-up. The colour red of Laurentien is imv awful and too "loud" . Prefer QM's dress.
ReplyDeleteThe teenage girls Amalia, Ariane are dressed like older adults. Maxima looking fabulous tonight
ReplyDeleteThey are teenagers yes. But you cannot made them wear childish clothes. They wear the same clothes like other youngsters of the same age wear these days.
DeleteThey are teenagers yes. But they are dressed not different than other teenagers of the same age (maybe a little more expensive). I'm sure they can choose themselves what to wear. If you look at Princess Ariane she changed in no time from a little girl into a lovely young lady. It is also a custom among young girls to dress in black or other dark colors to go out.
DeleteCan we please get a picture of Sweden's prince Alexander, 7 years 19.4.23.
ReplyDeleteWhy?
DeleteIt looks like her daughters are going to a different event than Maxima! I am intrigued about Amalia's shoes, I would love to have a closer look.

Ravissantes adolescentes dont en particulier Amalia dans cette robe au très joli décolleté mais je ne suis pas du tout fan de ses chaussures ; magnifique chevelure !
ReplyDeleteI really fancy Amalia’s lady-like look, including her shimmering nylons, so glad to seeing her more relaxed after all the tension and worries.

Amalia is a very attractive young woman. This colour and style of her dress is more flattering than the bright patterns she wore on tour.
ReplyDeleteThe girls are dressed a bit oddly, as if they are at an elegant affair, meanwhile their Mum has on those clunky shoes, as does Laurentien which totally ruins an ok dress. Gilli
ReplyDeleteCP Amalia looks stunning and elegant : chic dress and shoes, lovely makeup and hairstyle. Beautiful as ever !
ReplyDeleteBravo to the Princess of Orange and Princess Ariane, they both look beautiful. Where was Princess Alexia?
ReplyDeleteT
P. Alexia is at school in Wales.
Delete- Anon 9:13
In Wales I suppose, where she studies
DeleteI would imagine Alexia is probably still in school in Wales. |Melanie|
DeleteThe CP looks so beautiful. Queen Maxima’s shoes look like hooves!
ReplyDeleteOooh, there's a lot of good stuff here! First of all, Maxima has a styling streak - I really like her hair and makeup of late. She looks good in red, too - my only quibble are the shoes. Maybe it's just an unfortunate angle, but they look like solid black hooves somehow. I think something more dainty would've been nice. The young ladies look wonderful. Ariane has really grown up and Amalia looks smashing in the darker ensemble. I'm glad she stayed away from fluffy florals this time - as already said during her tour, she looks so much better in clean lines and solid colours. Well done! And then there's Laurentien, who's also knocking it out of the park. I wish she hadn't raided Maxima's wardrobe for the awful belt, but it could've been worse and it doesn't diminish the overall look. Well done everyone!

Amalia looks uncomfortable next to her mother, the navy outfit looks good on her, but not the shiny stockings. Both sisters look older than their age. Maxima has listened to criticism about her hair, I hope it lasts. I don't care for her flouncy dress.
ReplyDeleteI like Maxima's dress but would love it if the bottom tier was wider rather than more narrow than the middle tier. I cannot express how awful those black platform shoes are--they need to be tossed on the trash heap. Her hair and makeup are excellent--moving away from stick-straight hair and cutting back on the bronzer are perfect solutions. Laurentian and Ariane are my winners! Laurentian looks fabulous--her red dress is gorgeous. Really want her red platform shoes to join's Maxima's on that trash heap. Ariane looks marvelous--great pantsuit! Love her hair and makeup--perfect for a teenager. Amalia looks great--the simple navy dress is so flattering on her. I think clean, simple lines in solid colors are a good look for her. Finally, Princess Beatrix is a treat for the eyes but I can't see too much of her outfit but bet its her usual elegant style.

Every one looked great. I must say Pss Amalia looked very elegant. Even Laurentien looked lovely. The two sisters hit it a Homerun. Pss Beatrice is always spot on. css
