I really like it too. I hadn't seen in before. Does anyone have any more pictures of it?
It looks like it was worn at an event both during the & at night I think.

The coat is lovely, very nice. I wish Maxima would make some effort with her hair, it's just one hand grip & go. Looks sloppy compared to the outfit she's wearing.

The dress is lovely.... but i don't like the over-knee boots with that outfit at all.

Are these full-leg boots? They don't seem to end!!! The cape is too much for me. It looks like a grey, shapeless curtain and because it's Halloween I can't help thinking Maxima being able to spread her arms, doing a Batman and fly home after the event.

Is it really a cape? To me it looks like a blanket  .
It could have been a nice outfit... with a nice grey coat and pumps.

The dress is very nice, but I agree with the other posters about the boots. They just don't work with this dress, IMO.

That's not a cape that's a long jacket!

The dress would have looked so nice with brown pumps. I'm not a huge boot lover anyway. I'm just getting used to the grey and brown thing, not seen much in US until last couple of seasons. More European, I like it the more I see it. Is it already that cold in the Netherlands?

Well, the last days it was very cold in Western Europe. Today it was around 6 °C!
That's why it's strange to see Máxima wearing SHORT sleeves while most other people wear winter coats and scarfs.

Thanks for your links - I actually cant get them to work at the moment but will try them again later.
I dont mind the boots. I'm a boot-lover, but if she wears the dress again I'd like to see pumps. That said for the sake of her health I'd prefer not to see it again until summer!

OMG!! I saw the outfit and my first thought was that she was dressed for a Halloween party as Batman! Normally I think Princess Maxima is one of the more stylishly dressed CPs, but Holy Cape, Batman!...the cape must go!
Love the boots, though, but I had to look at the picture a second time to notice them I was so distracted by the caped crusader.
Burn the cape and flush the ashes down the toilet so there is no chance of it ever being resurrected.

31-10-2008 Princess Maxima attended the symposium ''De vergeten gever''.
White Suit
You see, Miss Maxima, this is what I call a pretty outfit. No weird Halloween-stuff. Fine!

She looks beautiful in this outfit. White can be a difficult color to wear, but Maxima wears it well.

She redeemed herself after the cape disaster of yesterday. She looks very striking and slim in this suit. Not too fond of the shiny clutch, but she can pull it off.

White always looks great on Maxima.
The skirt could flatter her more though.

Princess Maxima at the christening of Benjamin van Vollenhoven:

The cape-look is not nearly as bad as the previous cape, but I am unsure about the color combination.

What's that what she is wearing around her neck?? It cannot be called a necklace can it?? Not really a "christening look" if you ask me.
