On the evening of Monday, October 21, Queen Maxima and Princess Beatrix, of the Netherlands, attended the anniversary concert of Ton Koopman, founder of the Amsterdam Baroque Orchestra & Choir. The concert at TivoliVredenburg in Utrecht was part of an international tour celebrating the 80th birthday of Baroque specialist Ton Koopman.
The concert program featured Handel’s oratorio Esther, the very first English oratorio. For this tour, Koopman prepared a new edition of Esther and conducted the Amsterdam Baroque Orchestra & Choir from behind his harpsichord. Soprano Julia Lezhneva, countertenor Maarten Engeltjes, and bass-baritone Andreas Wolf performed the solo roles.
Saloni Isa Ruffle Dress
Princess Beatrix looks wonderful here--that peacock blue is beautiful on her and she looks elegant. I gotta say--I'm liking that Beatrix Bouffant seems to have been tamed--not sure who convinced her to rein in the pouffy heights but this style is very pretty for her. Queen Maxima is maxing it out--I'm not too sure on this dress. It's sooooo busy with colors and patterns and ruffles or flounces everywhere. I think my natural inclination against busy prints is kicking in here but this is dress is too much so, sorry Max, I'm not a fan.

حذفTerrible Dress !
ردحذفA comment fit for a nondisclosure profile.
حذفI think Maxima's dress might have looked better in person than it does in these photos. It doesn't photograph well in this room and lighting. Also, because the print of the fabric is so busy and so colourful, I think the dress needed a much simpler design, and without any ruffles.
ردحذفI like P.Beatrix's softer hairstyle that she has been wearing for the past few events that we have seen on this site. She looks more natural.

Wow. Who do you shoot for? What fashion house? Oh. It's your opinion. Stfd.
حذفAnonymous 22/10/24 20:07. As far as I know, everyone is entitled to their own opinion on this blog. Yours is just one among many. And your addendum is neither intelligent nor kind.
حذفI’m trying to figure out the configuration of Max’s dress. It looks like ruffles gone wild but it somehow works? I like the jumble of pretty colors and the ‘zigzag-ness’ of their arrangement. And it would be interesting to see it in motion. I think Max looks fabulous!
ردحذفI am sure some may think that Queen Maxima's dress is too busy or bold but for sure wouldn't this world be a boring place if everyone played it safe. I like the dress and would not expect anything less from her. The dress says
ردحذفI agree with you💖
حذفWell said, she brings joy with her Latin vitality and colourful style.

Superbe tunique bleue de la princesse Beatrix sur laquelle elle a su agrafer une belle broche ; j'aime moins l'imprimé à volants de Maxima !
ردحذفOh how we do miss Queen Beatrix!! Such a classy and intelligent lady!
ردحذفAndrea
She was a snob, but a classy one.
حذفCon tutta la simpatia che ho per Maxima ma no, questo abito non mi piace…non lo capisco ed è troppo “occupato”.

I like this dress, the colours are vibrant and match well with PB blue. These two ladies look like they have fun together
ردحذفThe pattern, length, and ruffles of Maxima’s dress are not flattering on her. It doesn’t look all that great on the model, either, in my opinion. Her earrings look interesting (in a good way).

I know in this blog you cannot criticize Maxima's hair or dress. So I won't. lol
ردحذفHé oui ! ;-)
حذفJ'aurais pu écrire le même commentaire :D
Ici il est interdit d'écrire une critique sur les vêtements de Maxima !

All my favourite jewel tones on one dress. Only a tall slim person can wear this dress and look lovely. I don’t find the frills distracting, rather see this than a slip dress.
ردحذفI really like almost everything about how both RL look for this amazing night. I'd like to see Q. Maxima try some more current looking shoes.
ردحذفSeparately I am swooning about the concert. What I wouldn't give to see/hear Ton Koopman and Andreas Wolf again.
Stunning dress! Love it!
ردحذفI’m novfan of Maxima nor The way she dresses, but I like this dress, it’s fun and colorfulvand elegant. The frills are not too heavy and give this dress a flowy feeling. So for once 😃 👍
ردحذفAlthough I'm all for colours and bold patterns and sparkles and all at night events, that said it looks great ! - at the same time.. it looks a little too 80s..? Overall silhouette and all, something a little off. Perhaps more - for lack of a better word - pointy bra would have been brought more shape to the dress.
ردحذفI'm sorry I cannot say more kind words on this choice of attire.. I like Maxima but I really wish she'd do these beautiful dresses justice.

Queen Beatrix looks very good here, I love this ensemble. The blue top is gorgeous.
