Crown Princess Mathilde's Eveningwear Part 1: April 2004 - March 2010
 

I want to start a topic about all the beautiful gala dresses Mathilde has worn so far.

1,2,3,6) Let's start at her own engagement dinner: She wore a beautiful deep blue dress created by Yves Dooms.

For me this is one of the most beautiful dresses she's ever worn: the 'golden gown' from Natan.

I believe it's Mathilde's favorite too, because she's already worn it on various occasions.

I think it can be combined with a skirt or trousers

I'm not too fond about this one: a grey evening dress wth a golden jacket.
At a gala dinner in Japan, in 2002.

Anothe deep blue dress for a gala charity event in Belgium



A red dress she wore twice, pretty color, but I don't think the 'collar' is very flattering. By Natan

Gala reception in New york

At the pre wedding ball for Willem-Alexander and Máxima: a red dress with velvet 'top'. The second pic shows the true color of the dress. Natan.

A charming red dress she wore twice:


When the Swedish king and queen made a visit to Belgium, Mathilde was expecting Elisabeth and on an economic mission to Thailand in 2001.

Also during the Swedish state visit: a pink-lilac dress. I think it makes her look very sweet and young.

A very stylish, classic white dress

The much discussed Versailles-outfit :P

A lot of people really hated it, but I think it's gorgeous, even tough I think it should have had a bit more 'waist'

It's from Gerald Watelet.

So elegant: completely in white

One of her first gala outfits, and not exactly the best, IMO
On the Spanish state visit to Belgium in 2000.

It was designed by Belgian Pierre Gauthier

Thks Hannelore for the wonderful pics!
I agree with you that CP Mathilde hve beautiful tastes in gala gowns...i especially love the golden gown.

A very special and exotic one but wonderful. From Gerald Watelet.

Shocking pink for another state visit. A daring choice but a very good one!

She was expecting Gabriel, it was at the Norwegian state visit to Belgium. Natan.

A very gracious black dress for a gala dinner during their visit to the United Arab emirates

Light blue gala dress for Finnish state visit to Belgium (in March 2004), I think it looks so beautiful and fresh on her fair skin!

Nice to see that she's experimenting with other colors as well, apart from deep red and deep blue.

Economic mission to Poland: beige pants with a beautiful lace top. Natan.

A very large photo of the pink gala outfit she wore on economic mission to new Zealand in November 2002.

In New Zealand, 2002

This is a great picture, it's a really quite flattering outfit for her.

A few more pics of the golden gown, the white one for the Danish state visit and the red one she wore in Amsterdam (you can really see it's deep wine color very well her, it's gorgeous!!)
