It doesn't have to do with style, Seto. Of course she is a woman and she can show whatever she wants [among the royal standards and protocol statements she must follow, that is] ...! It has to do mainly with her legs and their shape. She is a well-built woman, therefore she has 'strong legs' and sometimes it doesn't look that good in pictures, when wearing above-the-knee length skirts.

Could someone remind me please, does she ever wore a gown during any of her previous pregnancies?

Thanks

Though I am a little bit reluctant towards Maxima´s pattern-craze regarding coats, I must say this one is very nice. Nice option for wearing oranje

I must say that pregnant women in general really have to improvise evening clothes, as designers don't seem to think that pregant women go to galas, thus they don't really design for them. However, I have to say, I think that most pregnant women improvise admirably, and especially in the royal circle where dress is even more closely watched, I think that as a general rule they all do very well!

you do have a good point, i also think many of the royals can afford to have gowns made.Its easier to find short gowns than long ones.but yes they do a great job

I think this one was the most wonmderful pregnancy eveningdress so far:

Personally, and I might get attacked for this, but I think with her past 2 pregnancies, she has looked much, much better.
It seems as if this pregnancy has taken a lot out of her and she is not really trying to look good. Her hair is always a mess, her skin is dull, her clothes always looks rumpled or messy and if they don't really fit. And it seems as if she is using the colors and the patterns to try and hide these things, which is fine, but she just looks as if she is having a hard time with getting things together. She is missing her sparkle.
The only time I have seen her look really good (during the evening only) was on a recent state trip that she did. Don't remember where, but she wore 2 very nice evening dresses, one was a white slip dress and the other a lace rusty/orange colored dress. It was very early in her pregnancy so maybe she was not as tired. I don't know. But really, this was the only time she has looked all pulled together in my book.

I agree somewhat. I wonder though what she will wear for King Harald's birthday party. I hope she is doing something nice\glamourous.

I agree. Although the first new-zealand eveningdress was my alltime favorite, with all the different colours.

Very pretty coat on her. She looks crisp and elegant.

evening wear, maxima in oslo. the jacket fur trim was beautiful. overall she looked wonderful

[Aurora810]

Maxima looks very beautiful in Oslo. But what makes the dress and the coat is Maxima. Her natural glow was so evident last night and that's what made the outfit a succes, IMO. I also like her hair, shiny and sleek. It all worked!
