I liked all the ladies dresses Matildes was different but mette marits wasn't great it reminded me of a bad prom dress. I loved her other gowns.

Off topic, I know but I really hate this expression & "baby bump". What ever is wrong with "her pregnancy is showing more now" or "she is quite obviously pregnant" or even better "she is really glowing with pregnancy"

What a beautiful couple !

Ok, concerning the gowns of yesterday : Most of them were simply ugly IMO ... (Mathilde, Silvia ...)
Mette-Marit : She was so beautiful the day before . Why on earth did she choose such an awful dress for the ball ?????? Ugly colours and shape ...
Some were ok but not spectacular, like Madeleine's or even Mary's .
To me, the most beautiful gown of the evening was worn by Maria Teresa . I love it . Maxima was also fairly beautiful .
As for the queen of the ball, Queen Sonja, her gown was not that stunning, but this woman is indeed stunning and beautiful in herself, no matter what she wears ... WONDERFUL QUEEN SONJA !

I totally agree! Honestly: I was surprised to see how "big" the Tiara looks on Máxima ! I'm only used to see it nearly lost in the helmet.
The Tiara looks absolutely stunning on her!
The same goes for the floral Motive Tiara! It looked very beautiful on Laurentien and (the same as on Máxima) I never expected it to look so big!

Default Mathilde's lack of jewelry / Laurentien
I must say Her Royal Highness Princess Laurentien of the Netherlands has surprised me with the glitz and glam she can provide.

She has worn the Ears-of-Wheat Diademe, the Laurel Wreath Diademe, the Diademe from the Emerald Parure and Queen Emma's Floral Motif Diademe. All of them just worn excellently, giving them the chance to sparkle. In fact she wears these better than her mother-in-law or her aunt-in-law (Princess Margriet)...

Somewhere also a bit weird: the wife of the third son of the Netherlands Queen has worn more diademes, while she hardly attends royal functions, than Her Royal Highness Princess Mathilde of Belgium, the Duchess of Brabant, the future Queen of the Belgians...

I've been searching a lot of photoagencies, but I can't seem to find a picture of Princess Mabel (I don't mean the grouppicture)

I guess it is from Scanpix. I don't have an account there, but I'm sure they also have pictures of Mabel!

I have though that Princess Mary should wear that red dress last nigth, it suits her very well has she is pregnant!!
Cristina of Spain was very normal has ussualy, nothing fashion at all!MM very bad choice to me, the dress doesn't suite her at all, makes her pregnant again!
Algouth everyone talks about Madeleine I really think she should get congratulations because she has wear what she likes, although a bit different from all but that Pink dress was really her. Last nigth the blue dress shuits her really well, to me she was the best!

I'm sure the pics will be posted when they become available. Until then, please be patient and avoid making "any pics?" posts.
Thanks.
