On Thursday morning, November 2, 2023, Dutch Queen Maxima attended the celebration of the 30th anniversary of Home-Start in the Netherlands. The event took place in Culemborg. Home-Start is a global program that supports families in raising young children. In 2009, the Queen had attended the organization's 15th anniversary.
Together with nearly 2,800 trained volunteers, Home-Start offers help to parents in growing children. Families themselves indicate about which everyday parenting tasks they want to receive help. Volunteers are linked to a family for a longer period to ensure continuity. With this support, Home-Start works to prevent small problems in a family from developing into serious and long-term problems.

Stunning hat and smile! I’m so glad she’s continuing her mother-in-law’s tradition of hats ( … it’s not so long ago that none of us would have considered going to town without one!). - AnneLise
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely agree. Delighted to see an impressive hat again. I also love to see royal ladies wearing hats for formal and semi formal occasions. Queen Maxima looks great here.
DeleteMagnifique en bleu-marine et gris, quelle belle association jusque dans sa grosse broche qui est composée de quelles pierres ? Délicate la perle épinglée sur sa capeline mais est-ce que je vois des aigue-marines dans ses boucles d'oreilles ?!
ReplyDeleteMaxima looks fab!
ReplyDeleteI love the dress and love how well it fits her, love the large yet minimal jewellery and most of all, love the style and colour of the blue hat. Been waiting for a while for her to give us for a look like this and it does not disappoint.

Lovely in every way. Length, colour, model etc. And pay attention to her legs. Please more of this beautiful thin dark pantyhoses instead of those too glossy skin colour ones
ReplyDeleteMaxima est superbe de la tête aux pieds

One of the most elegant outfits, Queen Maxima, has ever worn. It fist her like a glove.
ReplyDeleteHer style has been amazing lately,this is an amazing outfit but was the oversized cat really necessary, its blocking everybody's view!
ReplyDelete@ missy. Yes the hat is necessary with the storm Ciaran coming over the Netherlands today. The strongest hairspray cannot hold any hairdo. So a hat was a good solution. If she didn't wore one you could have said she didn't comb her hair. With the hat you can't. If you take a good look on certain pictures you see 2 pearls on her hat (which are the top of 2 hairpins) Normally people were advised to stay indoors today and only go out when it was really necessary.
DeleteI love her dress by Dolce and Gabbana. Her legs are really beautiful in the black panty. Rose
Oversized cat? I don’t see it, but how wonderful if she really did turn up with an oversized cat! The must have fashion accessory of Fall 2023. Meanwhile, the hat is gorgeous and perfect for a Queen. (Fiona)
DeleteHa ha - longing to see more oversized cats in royal fashion ! - J.
DeleteSorry, @ Anonymous 2/11/23 at 20:04, you know I have an open mind, still I can't figure out what oversize cats be like fashion- wise..
DeleteThere must have been a misunderstanding as I am only aware of snug, , figure hugging catsuits made of any sort of material.
May we have a talk about catsuits, please?
Your opinion on the matter would be immensely welcome to me , thank you 👍
It is obviously an autocorrect or typo. She meant to say "hat".

Oh la laa so typical Maxima
ReplyDeleteI just love it!!
Agree !
DeleteShe looks really good and elegant. Not typical Natan's Maxima at all.
ReplyDeleteOne of her best dresses, beautifully combined with a great hat,
ReplyDeleteMabel
Lovely!! More hats please Máxima, you do it so well. Dress is beautiful, I am fully ready to oversee that huge and somewhat incongruous embellishment on it. (GM)
ReplyDeleteI do not care for the huge hat or the strange looking brooch/pin.
ReplyDeleteM
Maxima looks stunning. D&G dresses are always nice. What are the stones in that oversized pin? I think way to big. css
ReplyDeleteGoodness, Queen Maxima looks sensational. Love the Navy dress and her accessories, perfect outfit. I particularly like the neckline and darts of the front, adding interest. Very elegant. The embellishment on the bodice works well (I'm not sure if its a brooch?). She suits this style of hat beautifully.
ReplyDeleteLove the dress and hat--terrific outfit and very chic! Not a fan of the brooch--just too large and I feel it detracts some from the overall elegance of her look.
ReplyDeleteJanet
Very elegant and classy.

It seems that only in Europe "oversized" embellishments like some of you call it are fashion. We have seen it lately on Queen Mathilde, Princess Astrid, GD Maria Teresa and Queen Maxima who wore sometimes similar "brooches" in the past.
ReplyDeleteThis is a very nice dress and the Queen wears it well. I find the hat a bit too big but its heavier felt is a good combo with the dress.
ReplyDeleteNow, I really like this look on Maxima!
ReplyDeleteAt last a sheath dress, wonderful ensemble, just my cup of tea.
The blue hat is exquisite and her shoes are to die for.
Well done👍👍
Perfect Halloween outfit!
ReplyDeleteQueen Maxima is a beautiful woman. She radiates positivity and is always interested in everything.
ReplyDeleteWow, this dress is gorgeos on Queen Maxima. Of late she has been dressing really well and I can't wait to see what she wears on her next engagement.
