The coat is very lovely, I like a lot the shape.
I don't like the headband, if it was just the headpiece it could work, but the headband looks childish IMO.

Marie always has the weirdest of handbands. Her head looks like something exploded, horrible hairstyle with the headpiece. The coat is ok but not with the top underneath.

I agree. Love the coat but the headband looks so little girlish.

Her hair is so thick, pulling it back in a headband that way makes it fan out strangely. And while I know it's just an off moment, the look on her face in the group photo seems almost as though she's saying "I know, my hair, right? It looked sleek when I left the palace but now it's poofing out all weird behind the headband and...nothing more I can do at this point but chalk it up as a lesson learned."

The outfit (minus the headband) is lovely. The color of the coat and the dress underneath looks great on her. I would have loved her hair pulled back with a nice hat. Not sure if the weather had anything to do with her hair being "poofy".

The coat and the dress is great and the color looks great on Marie. The headband was totally weird and not elegant, the hair looked messy.

I'm not too familiar with protocol, is it correct to wear the sash UNDER the belt?

it's fine. Many have done it. At this point, I think I've seen an order worn pretty much any way you can.

Maxima at W-A's inauguration comes to my mind, so I guess is correct
I agree this is one of her best evening dresses, she looks beautiful. It's an style that suits her and pastel shades look better than her than in most royal ladies due to her olive skin and dark hair.

Bad hair on both occasions. The green coat.looks like something one of my dolls wore as a little girl. The hairpiece only adds to the little girl look. The evening dress is lovely, well suited to her and well fitted.

The green coat is fantastic. A classical style but with a great pop of color. I like what we see if the dress under.
But her puffy hair, and headband ruin it. She looks like a tween going to a school dance.
Tonight was stunning. I agree, her best evening look in a long time. The detail is very lovely.

Little black dress for Marie, I think it's recycled, its a look you can hardly go wrong with.

I think the black dress is lovely and I especially like the shawl she wore when she arrived.

Well, Marie could have! But I like this lbd and the wrap or cape is a nice touch. She looks very nice

Oh, you could go wrong with a lbd but this one has a nice scoop neck which flatters her and looks to have sparkles and some feathers to dress it up. Love the nice shawl, with the elephant motif
