    I know she likes big hats, but this one looks like a flipped-up umbrella.

      C'est une tenue idéale pour jouer au ping-pong ! Elle peut récupérer les balles perdues dans ses manches, hop ! :D ;))

    Given the simplicity of the rest of the dress, I'm fine with the superfluous sleeves. The colour is lovely, the hat is her signature style, and Maxima makes this slightly avant garde look all come together better than anyone else could.

      Agree Anon 9:13! The wide sleeves are awesome and make an otherwise simple dress look amazing. I do like the colour also.

    Except for the colour I think the sleeves of this dress are awful. I know Maxima loves now and then some exaggerating or theatrically clothes and that's okay with me but these sleeves are not elegant at all

      Yes she is a fabulous queen, but here we are in a school. A simpler dress would have been more appropriate

    Dreadful shapeless dress with pointless oversized and overdone sleeves. Beige Color washes her out. Yesterday’s red dress was 1000 times better for Maxima.

    I think Maxima is fantastic but the sleeves on her dress…just no!

    Nice dress and color, but the sleeves need to go. What was she thinking? css

    I like the top half of the dress, till I saw the huge sleeves. Regardless this was a awesome visit. Well done to the Queen, bringing sunshine and light to this visit. She is a ray of sunshine all herself!

    Queen Maxima is possibly the only person who can wear a drab beige outfit but still look exuberant. Hat and sleeves all make it a fun outfit but not a patch on yesterday's elegance.

    Queen Maxima is bigger than life and I am oscillating between OMG or Marvelous when it comes to the hat. Either way she is a very special lady and she reminds me of Rosiland Russell in the movie "Auntie Mame"

    Strange to wear a “mother of the bride” dress for a school visit.

      Exactement ! Un immense chapeau de paille pour aller dans une école, c'est logique pour elle ! ;)

      I think it's great. It's a dress for Queen Max.
      Queen Max has been going through a subdued period with her official visits.
      I was getting worried.
      I though maybe Princess Beatrix had had a "little chat" with her.
      But no. I'm sure Princess Beatrix adores her as she is 😁

    Je visualise bien les ateliers pratiques de technologie, de créativité (peinture, sculpture, modelage, collage, etc.), et aussi les cours de cuisine et sport, ok. Mais j'aimerais bien savoir comment sont des ateliers pratiques de résilience !

    Cette robe convient bien à Maxima même si les manches pourraient ne pas être pratiques pour jouer au ping-pong ; j'espère que le chapeau ne l'a pas empêchée de bien voir la balle !

    Echt een jurk voor de elite, iemand die nooit wat in de huishouding hoeft te doen. Zie je haar zo al in een pan soep roeren ?

      Denk je nou echt dat ze er thuis zo bij loopt ? Als ze de mouwen nu voor de helft zou inkorten, zou dit volgens mij nog een zeer draagbare jurk zijn.

      Gezien ze zich zelden kleedt in functie van het bezoek, zie ik d’r ook met die mouwen in de soep draaien. 😀

    I honestly just want to have a third of the energy and enthusiasm Maxima radiates every time she's out and about. Of course the outfit is absolutely ridiculous and seeing her play table tennis in it made me giggle, but it's a Maxima ensemble if ever I've seen one and she's fabulous in it!

      Dear Nika.
      You can't help but love her.
      I hope that at least one of her daughters inherits her personality.
      Princess Beatrix has been blessed with three superb daughters-in-law.

    Is Maxima really genuine? Does she feel the excitement she radiates ? I’m not convinced, but it seems a lot of people fall for it. Of course that’s ok too.
