On Thursday, the people of Jordan celebrated their country’s 77th Independence Day. King Abdullah, Queen Rania, Crown Prince Hussein, Prince Hashem, Princess Salma, Princess Muna, and a number of royal family members attended the official 77th Independence Day ceremony at the Raghdan Royal Palace in Amman. In 1946, the country known as the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan became a sovereign state.
Seems the whole Family is celebrating, which is nice to see. The dresses of the RL look very elegant. Also very nice to see Pss Muna, she looks fantastic.css

DeleteThe life of Antoinette Avril Gardiner (Princess Muna) is
Deletea very interesting history to read up on.
For a brief summary you can find good information via ………..

Absolutely stunning look for Rania--green is great on her and the belt is gorgeous. She is such a beautiful woman. Salma's dress is lovely too. I love how the bodice eflects her father's and brothers' traditional kufiyahs (I think that is the correct term--if not, someone please correct me and give me the correct name). I wish we could see more of Muna's gown--it looks like it has incredible designs.

I agree with you, except the belt, it looks too me superwoman-like

The color of this gown is divine a beautiful shade of green. A very pretty ensemble.
ReplyDeleteIt's been a very busy week for Queen Rania and the Jordanian Royal family. Started with Rania hosting the enormous henna party for DIL-to-be Rajwa al Saif, then her youngest son Hamzah's HS graduation yesterday, then the Independence Day celebrations today, and the current and ongoing preparations for the big wedding in a week.
ReplyDeleteStill she holds her composure and looks amazing in this green and gold kaftan ensemble. Not overdone - just right.

Rania and the whole family looks great. I love them when they wear more traditional clothes. This is really a great time of celebrations for the Royal family of Jordan. And they make celebrating look good.
ReplyDeleteAs usual the gowns are wonderfully nice.
ReplyDeleteLady in green - she is looking very beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI can’t pinpoint it but I find that this queen dresses in a tacky way. I know most people don’t agree.
ReplyDeleteQuelle belle allure de Rania dans ce vert tendre rehaussé par cette ceinture originale ; la princesse Muna est sublime pour son âge !
ReplyDeleteAnother great outing for the Jordanian royals. Bring on the wedding!
ReplyDeleteSo sorry, the above comment (Anon16:19) was made by me, but apparently I wasn't logged in here. Apologies.
DeleteDoes anyone know why only the sons but not the king wear a head garment? Beautiful dresses on the ladies.
ReplyDeleteWell, King Abdullah has been seen wearing agal and kufiyya in the past. My guess would be that this is a highly stately affair and therefore he chose to do it the more statemanly way. The sons, however, are not (yet) representing the Jordanian State on that political/diplomatic level, and therefore dressed more in a traditional Arabic way. Only guessing, of course.
DeleteI agree. She looks like a queen. What an amazing green kaftan with the golden belt. She is so flawless when it comes to dressing, Although I think these days more and more that it is not nice when the mother looks better than the daughter. Growing gracefully old appeals to me more and more.
ReplyDeleteAt 52yo, Queen Rania still has at least 20 more years left in her of looking young and stylish and beautiful, before she need worry about 'aging gracefully'.
