Rania is hosting a conference from the 13th-14th May and the WEF in the ME is a few days after that so I expect the Azerbaijan trip will only be 2/3 days long.

Thanks for the photos, dazzling.

I may be completely off the mark here but Rania's jacket may be from Zara. They have a jacket at the moment with a collar that is identical to this one.

Queen Rania looks amazing. She does an amazing job selecting trenches/coats. I am not sure about the belt (Her Majesty's most favourite accessory) though. Mrs. Alieva's outfit is classical and well-chosen. I like the bright blue colour.

Rania's coat looks horrible like that. Would have been nicer fastened and with a colourful silk scarf - more elegant. This looks awful. Is that belt even matching the coat? I am shocked that a woman with access to the best fashion advice and clothes can dress this way on an official visit!!!!

She needs to change whoever advises her on clothes these days as this is just awful. She used to be very elegant, not any longer.

Mrs Alieva looks very appropriate (I don't like the back of her hairstyle though) and elegant. She has very nicely shaped legs.

Mrs. Alieva is regarded as the most stylish First Lady among other Ladies from the post-Soviet republics. The hairstyle is her signature one.

Rania's outfit seems way too casual for an official visit to another country. She's dressed in what essentially looks like a sundress.

It was nice to see Mrs. Alieva without her signature updo hairstyle. Neatly styled loose hair makes her look a bit younger. Of course, the whole outfit is classical as expected. I am surprised with Her Majesty's choice of the ensemble. Although Queen Rania did not choose to wear another outfit with a belt, the dress seemed a bit noisy. I liked the jacket and hairstyle though. I wonder whether there will be a gala dinner.
