I like Princess Laurentien's very feminine roundings in today's gown, typically as always à Laurentinoise (on the edge).

She is in her forties and a mother of two cute countesses and a count and looks incredibly good.

Maxima looks so great in combo of black and white

and HM Queen looks so nice in their outfits and include hats well done, your majesty

Princess Laurentien looks so nice also in their purple outfits and hats also

Thank you all for sharing so many beautiful pics on this special day. Everyone looked great. Laurentien was quite a surprise to me. I feared that she would want to stand, and she did, but in a sober and elegant way.

Nothing to add to your cumpliments to Máxima. The flower was a good choice, I don't think hats suits with long dresses...

Thank you Henri M. for all you contributions in this thread; you make such precise descriptions and in a such formal tone I tend to ask myself "OMG, and I'm wearing so... normal to attend this!".

Thank you very much your incomes are always very appreciated.

Regards,
mtbcm

All ladies wore nice colours.

Beatrix: mix of pyramidal and chinese hat or hats, little to big sleeves, about her gown colours it the depend of the lights that's once there're light and other time are dark.
Maxima: simple elegant and stunning, maybe she should wore her head-dress little higher or just a hat?

Laurentien: again her own style, it would be much better if she would wore a bra. Btw she has good legs

Margriet: interesting dress.

Thanks to Henri M. for the links and to all for the photos.

Thanks to all for the pictures!

To go short, I only liked Maxima's outfit. Beatrix chose dull colours, I didn't really care about Margriet's and Laurentien looked great if it wasn't for the corset. But of course, I enjoyed it all a great deal, I always love seeing them together no matter what they wear!

Maxima's outfit was well done, but "the only one who could pull off" the combo of black/white skirt plus jacket plus fake flower in hair? Well I know I think what you're trying to say, although I think it's the kind of classic outfit that would have looked equally great on millions of females, Laurentien included.

Speaking of Laurentien, two thumbs up for her outfit!

By the way, you non-Dutchies may not know that the auditorium this ceremony was held in, the centuries-old Ridderzaal, which means Knight's Hall and has been a focal point for this nation for the past few hundred years, has been completely renovated this year, throne included! All materials originate from the Netherlands, except the cloth for the throne (and where they got it from is my guess--Italy maybe? It looks velvet-y doesn't it! Love the pattern!

Well yes that corset I didn't like either, but as Henri M said, it was very Laurentien! And overall the dress was a huge improvement on most everything else she's worn over the past years, with the notable exception of her lovely wedding dress!
