The ‘Above Ground – 25 Years of Archaeological Discoveries’ exhibition showcases a wide range of archaeological discoveries from the period 2000–2025. The exhibition not only highlights the finds themselves, but also the diverse group of discoverers — from government agencies and archaeological firms to detectorists and volunteers.

    I love this skirt that Maxima has worn before. It really looks as if the designer put a lot of craftmanship in this skirt. Hat and shoes lovely but my oh my this really strange blouse with these asymmetrical sleeves.

    Like it all except the weird right sleeve of the blouse. It looks like a piece of fabric was just tucked into the collar. Love the ribbon skirt it balances the large rim hat.

    Unusual blouse but I like the color on Queen Maxima! The skirt, hat, shoes and jewelry are all great. Very pretty daytime look.

    How many blouses in this khaki colour with very strange necklines does she own? I love the skirt and of course her smile, but not the blouse. LRB

    I think this is a beautiful, versatile skirt that fits Q. Max very well. I prefer it with the paler gold blouse from a prior outing. This one with its awkward shaped sleeve just competes with statement skirt. (V.M.)
