The rather big hat of Maxima reminds me of something African/Caribbian women wear when they go to a church in Amsterdam.

Is Maxima's hat a creation of Fabienne Delvigne? And does someone knows the designer of the dress?

I just don't like Máxima's hat.. it looks pretty when you see it in profile pictures, but it looks weird when you look straight on it... 
The jacket she wore over the dress was recycled. she already wore it in 2003 when she announced her first pregnancy.
and:
I don't think Laurentien looked "awful". I think she looked really pretty this time!

I agree, HM. I think Laurentien looked great this year, we have seen far worse from her during Prinsjedag. She actually looked quite toned down this time and I really liked it.
Máxima's outfit was a bit boring, imo. The jacket was too casual to go with the dress (which seems very beautiful, btw). And the hat isn't really my cup of tea either, though it blends in wonderfully with her nice hairdo.
I guess I never get used to the Queen's style, though. She looks very 'Bea' and I applaud her for that, but she can do so much better, imo. Margriet looked nice too. I'm not too sure about the colour of the top, but Margriet can get away with almost everything.

I like all outfits! The Queen, Maxima, Laurentien, and Margriet all looked wonderful. I have no real complaints about anyones attire for today. I think though Margriet might just take home the best dressed award, in my opinion. It was a great combo of colors!

Well the colour of her outfit was certainly boo-ring, though the hat was ... funny! Ok, now seriously, the hat (from the front) looks like failed bakery. Looks more decent from the side though.

well, I can't believe that I'm going to say this, but the only outfit that I liked today was Laurentien's. 
the Queen looked as if she was wearing a very large and heavy bathrobe. I wish she would pick a hat that did not look so horrible. I know she needs a big hat to accomodate her hairdo, but this style just does nothing to flatter her.
As for Maxima, the jacket did not go with the dress, and the dress did not go with the jacket. Her hat only looked good on her profile. From the front, it looked as if she had a bunch of material wrapped around in a swirl, and then plopped on her head.
As for Margeriet, I liked the blue dress, but the yellow part did nothing to flatter her or her dress. But I did like the color combination.

I like Laurentien's blue dress. It's very elegant and is a good choice for the occasion. I don't like her fashion taste most of the times but to me she's always pretty  , nice and sweet. The only thing I don't like is her hat, too much bird's hair but the gorgeous earrings compensate it. :)
Princess Máxima: I like her dress, I don't like the coat. The hat is pretty and very original, but I don't like to see it with such formal dress.

Princess Maxima looks beautiful. Her hair looks really nice when she puts it up, it frames her face beautifully.
