I agree that pincess Maxima looks tired, but that is undestandable cos she is pregnant, but then she still smile as radiant as always.

Agree with most of you that say Maxima looks radiant.  To be honest, I'm not a fan of her outfit, but I have seen much worse on other people and personally it doesn't bother me.
I really wish she wouldn't wear so much blush/bronzer on her cheeks-she should go for a softer look for winter

I don't like this dress, it's seems more a large tunic than a Dress.
I like the boots, especially the color, but they don't mix well with the dress.
The make up is also too heavy, imo.
Anyway, it's always nice to see Princess Máxima in events, she is a very nice person and I think she is doing a good job as a Princess.

If it looks more of a tunic then a dress,that's entirely apropiate in the context of the visits she made that day,projects for migrant women from Morocco.And don't be surprised if they recognised the patron and could tell exactly from which part of Morocco it originates as HRH purchased the cloth during her official visit to Morocco in november last year.

I would agree that she doesn't look as tired as when she was pregnant for the second time. I liked the outfit minus the scarf.

I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one who is critical on Máxima's outfit of late.
She used to be one of Europe's best dressed royals. I hope she will regain that position.

Much as I like Maxima, I didn't like her latest ourfit as well. She looked beautiful (her smile) but that outfit was not the best choice, imho.

Not her best outfit. Looks like a maternity tent dress made out of eye-catching fabric in the hopes of distracting from the style.
Considering this is her thrid pregnancy, you'd think she would have a closet of nice maternity clothes.

Thanks Mims111 for the great pictures!
I don't know what to say about this new outfit...
O.k. who am I kidding? I do!
1) Dress too short for CP and for pregnant woman.
2) The boots...too wide/thick?
I do like the dress, but it should have been longer. It's got a retro look and design to it. Should have worn it with a fitted coat or jacket. I know she's got the whole pregnancy belly going on, but she can still use fitted coats/jackets for pregnant women.
Just my opinion!

In Máxima's defence (for once)
For once, I would like to speak out a sort of defence for her.
She was visiting a shelter for homeless youngsters. It would be ridiculous to visit such a shelter wearing a stunning garderobe while the youngsters even do not have a roof above their heads.
Máxima's eh... 'style' was awful, but it looks like an outfit from Pucci di Roma, typical very expensive and overrated retro-stuff. In nothing she did look like the spouse of the future King, but okay, seen today's destination, I will not criticize her too much.

I think that this outfit was slightly too short. It seems that you can see the leg through the material... not what I would expect from Maxima.
And my goodness, she does seem to be gaining a tremendous amount of weight with this pregnancy. She gained quite alot with Alexia, but heavens! this is alot already, and she has at leat 4 months to go.

Wow, look at her belly!

She looked great! The dress itself is great!
I just think the jacket didn't really fit...

To say it nicely, she does not look good in this picture. The shawl, the short dress, the over-accesorized jewelry, and last but not least those roots... 
She just looks so disheveled, an image unbefitting for a princess or any royal "on duty" for that matter.

No matter where Máxima (or any royal) is she should always look well put together and dignified, whether she's greeting a head of state or visiting a homeless shelter. I agree that it would be impractical to dress to the 9s in a couture outfit with huge pearls for today's event. However because these youths may not have a roof over there heads does not mean that they deserve less of an effort to look good.

Is this just a bad photo - caught in the wind? In the one posted by Her Majesty she doesn´t look so bad.

It is the same dress, right? Because between the two pictures (posted by Mims and Her Majesty) it looks like a totally different dress. Or like maybe she was getting out of the car and her skirt rode way up. It isn't as inappropriate or as trashy looking in Her Majesty's picture, even though it still isn't my favorite. Amazing how different a dress can look in two separate pictures!
