She wore it to the gala of her joint 60th birthday with King Harald back in 1997, which was attended by various European royals. It has been worn several times since. For instance, she wore it to Princess Alexandra of Berleburg's wedding and to the state dinner when QE II paid a state visit to Norway about 5 years ago.

I really like those:

-Princess Maxima's Flower dress, worn in Thailand 2006
(It's one of my favourites!)

Rexfeatures

- Queen Sonja's red gown worn for the Danish Royal Wedding 2004

Corbis
It must be the collar that makes this dress so special. It looked great on Sonja.

Maxima's Valentino flower gown is gorgeous! She looked wonderful at the Thailand celebration. It's very feminine and elegantly ruffles out on the bottom. Maxima's been making very good gala choice outfits recently.

I thought Claire looked amazing at the Dutch State Visit to Belgium.

The dress is pretty and I think Claire looks absolutely stunning after just having twins. It's also nice to see her becoming more active in her royal duties since the birth. :)

I know that many will disagree with me but I found this flamboyant dress of Maxima absolutely gorgeous (on her, it wouldn't work on most other princesses).

What's a nice thread. It's always a pleasure to looks at gala gowns. Some of them are the most beautiful I have ever seen. Especially P Mathilde's gown from post#109 and a white gown post#114.

Well, I totally agree with you Marengo, I think it really suits her Argentinian roots. :)

And they have a dignity and formality that is so different from Hollywood stars and starlets and other celebrities, they carry the weight of history and honor of their respective countries on their shoulders, so to speak, and they do it beautifully, and I guess it's best exemplified in their choice of gala gowns and carriage at those events. Kings and princes, you made the right choices in your lady spouses !

I love mathildes dresses but they seem to make her posture look really bad, especially the slash neck dresses. She looks better in sleeveless dresses.
Queen Rania's dress in #103 is one of my all time favourites!

This orange dress of Princess Maxima is one of the most beautiful galadresses and her hairstyle was really nice!
