:previous: Those are some very lovely red gowns. However, I'm not too keen on Sheikha Mozah's second gown, CP Mary's gown and Queen Mathilde's gown. I really like the other gowns, very pretty. My favourite is Princess Letizia's.
 
I always liked the one she wore in Brussels for the Dutch state visit (no. 59) and the one for Philippe's 50th birthday (no. 57). A pity that neither of them has been repeated.
 
So many beautiful looks! I look forward to many more gowns and jewels from our Maxima!
 
I realise this refers to earlier this year during the Grand Prix, but I don't think the link has been posted before and it provides a detailed digest of what Charlene wore during that week.

This is probably a long shot, but does anyone know what years these gowns are from:

I am assuming the first one is from the 1999 New Years Banquet (she wore the dress again in March 1999 for a dinner for Nelson Mandela). I think the second one is from maybe the 2000 or 2001 New Years Banquet?

Any ideas?

edit: Well, I found out from the Countess Alexandra fansite that the purple dress in the 2nd photo is from the 1999 New Year's Court. So the first one is either from 1998 or 2001, I think.

Just one word... WOW! The embroidery is breathtaking.
 
Surprise ... do you remember the beige Reiss-dress the Duchess of Cambridge has worn during the Obama-visit? Found it today by accident on the German amazon-site. Well, not the official Reiss dress, but something extremly similar by a chinese supplier at an competitive price:

or on the UK-site:

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Hee-Grand-P...UTF8&qid=1379964179&sr=1-2&keywords=hee+grand

But please note that the chinese sizes are different from European sizes.
 
I guess this might be the right place: https://app.box.com/s/42c4fn4mw1pkcjt0tv81

This folder deals mainly with clothes, shoes, bags, jewellery and so on worn by Mary and our Marie, but other royals are also depicted.
It's very simple: User - Item - Designer, you'll find further details in the text, usually highlighted like this.

If this is considered inappropriate feel free to delete this post.

I saw a pic tonight on the blog of Miss Honoria Glossip, of Stephanie, with Guillaume, in a red dress which is absolutely marvelous. I think she may be wearing extensions in her hair, because it is thicker and smoother than it was. Whatever she has done with her hair, it looks marvelous too. The picture was not identified as to place it was taken. The Miss Honoria Glossip blog does not always identify pictures that way. But this is one of her very best looks.

If the link below is the picture you are referring to this was from the reception prior to Stephanie & Guillaume's civil wedding. I had forgotten what a good look that was for her.

That is one of the most beautiful photos of Stephanie I have ever seen. She looked radiant for her entire wedding festivities, beginning with the walkabout/ meet and greet on the morning of the civil ceremony (seen above)

Her hair looked unbelievable! I know it is not practical for a busy woman to have hair that long, but I loved Stephanie's hair like that!
 
Here are all the outfits Letizia wore on National Day:

The Royal Watcher

My favorites:

1. 2013
2. 2012
3. 2008
4. 2005
5. 2006
6. 2004
7. 2011
8. 2009

The worst is definitely the outfit in 2010. Just way too casual. I don't like the outfit in 2007 either.
 
I agree that 2010 is the worst. I like 2013 much, especially dress is fantastic, jacket is just ok. 2008 is really nice too.:flowers:
