On February 22, 2025, Crown Princess Amalia christened the Combat Support Ship (CSS) 'Den Helder' in Vlissingen. The CSS 'Den Helder' was designed and built by Damen Naval on behalf of the Ministry of Defence. The Den Helder will serve as the Royal Netherlands Navy's new supply ship, providing fuel, ammunition, water, food, and spare parts to naval vessels at sea worldwide. This event marked the Princess's first official solo engagement.
The ship is nearly 180 meters long and has a crew of 75. It can also be deployed in the fight against international drug trafficking, to support refugee operations, and to provide emergency aid. After the ceremony, Princess Amalia was given a tour of the ship and spoke with crew members and those involved in the construction of the Den Helder.
I think we as Dutch people can be proud of our princess of Orange, she did her first solo task very well and the Max Mara suit looked beautiful !!
ReplyDeleteI think she looks wonderful here. She has the height to carry off a double breasted jacket and wide trousers, and the colours are very flattering and harmonious. I’m really intrigued by her hairstyle - it seems to be a low, loose braided ponytail? Regardless, it’s lovely, and the braided headband echoes the style perfectly. Well done CPA! (V.M.)
ReplyDeleteStunning crown princess!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful. To perfect this, I would have chosen same earrings but in a smaller diameter, same trousers but more fitted.
ReplyDeleteSalmon,The salmon colored pant suit is beautiful. De sleeves of her jacket are not ironed very well
ReplyDeleteI think the fabric of the sleeves is just folding when her arms bend. I don't think it has anything to do with poor ironing or steaming.
Delete4.34 It's when she moves, look at the model, the same on her!
DeletePffffff
DeleteI think the sleeves are too long und simply pushed up, nothing to do with ironing. Otherwise a great outfit, the Princess of Orange looks wonderful
DeleteI like her in the salmon coloured pant suit. The turtleneck jumper has a weird mocca color and does not go well together with the color of her pant suit. The little hat is not necessary and looks, I am sorry to say, a bit ridiculous. The golden earrings are a bit too big. The coat on top of the suit is a bit too much since it less cold the last two days. Yesterday it was 16°C. Unfortunately today there is no sunshine anymore and the t° was 11°C, not really cold. Of course in Den Helder it is probably colder than in the middle or southern part of The Netherlands. Anyway another turtle neck in wool could be worn and then the big coat could have stayed in the car. It is her first solo event and she will have to do more of these to learn which clothes one can wear the best.
ReplyDeletePerfect, she looks fabulous. .
ReplyDeleteWonderful!
ReplyDeleteAmalia looks fantastic! Very happy to be there, relaxed, confident. You wouldn't guess it's her first solo visit. The salmon pink suit with the high collared camel top underneath suits her. The coat over the shoulders looks very Maxima :-) (apparently it is Maxima's coat). Hair and make-up are perfect. She will make a wonderful queen someday.

Elle a vraiment une belle allure dans ce tailleur/pantalon saumoné ; j'aime beaucoup le style original de son serre-tête qu'elle a combiné judicieusement avec ses boucles d'oreilles !
ReplyDeleteGorgeous everything!
ReplyDeleteThe suit, the colour, the coat, the inner polo-neck, the headpiece, her hair...everything looks lovely on Amalia. Best of all, gorgeous princess!

She looks like Q. M.'s "mini me". Perfect maxima look alike except Q. M. has a smile a mile wide that exudes confidence and P.A. has a sweet little smile that shows she's still a little shy. Sweet girl!! You look BEAUTIFUL with your dusty pink pant suit which whispers Spring is coming!! WELL DONE!!
ReplyDeleteLa tenue et les couleurs sont jolies mais le serre-tête et les grosses boucles d oreille sont de trop. Moins d accessoires rendrait l ensemble plus frais et léger.
