Not really. Most if not all her outfits have been recycled (same old style). She usually does a better job in dressing and hair when abroad.

I think she looks good, JUst she is theonly one in hat so i think she looks out of place or the rest is out of place?

I have loved all her outfits on the trip she is looking amazing and the hats the bigger the better on her she can really carry them off ... love it all.

She's looked fantastic since she became queen. I love all of her outfits on the trip to Germany.

I love this dress!

I don't think her style has changed she has just neatened up and looks more pulled together.

Yes thats what I thought. She is using her clothes on another level, she carefully chooses the pieces she already has, grogeous jewerly, great hats and beautiful hairstyles.
As a Queen, she's definately more careful now with her choices, and I think she's living up to that name

Think more often it is her hair that is now "tamed"..... She needs to keep it like this - much more regal.

Those loose locks did NOTHING for her!

This one is from Natan.
Mathilde wore it on 16/04/2013.

I think Maxim is so busy with her schedule and her work that I am not sure she has the time to organize this wrdrobes, I think she migh have somebody who does it for her. she might no even care about fashion , but this is her"costume" for her "job"

[Frelinghighness]

Wonderful outfits and all pulled together with hair, hat and jewelry. Love the little black hat, natan dress is ok but do not like the print.
Like the other oversized peplum look, though only saw it from the front

[vee]

I like Max' Berlin and Wiesbaden outfits and think they are, for the most part, great. However, I think they DO resemble and echo too much her Gelderland outfit, which she wore so very recently, before these two. And I agree with Iceflower about her Berlin and Wiesbaden outfits being too similar to have been worn in just one day. Also, yep, the Natan top is ill-fitting.

One would think that a couture dress designer could at LEAST fit clothes properly.

Russelsheim: Like it a lot! The hat, in particular, is to DIE for, on her.

Stuttgart: Overall, like IT a lot, too! The little hat kind of resembles an off-color, netted pancake or frisbee, to me. But, hey, you're still drawn in to that face because you can't help but stare at that pancake (or frisbee). So it's not a total disaster, I suppose.

I DO wish more space had been put between the Gelderland, Berlin and Wiesbaden outfits, since all three are SO similar. But, then again, this is one HECK of a Royal Road Show, so I can see how --- in terms of logistics, planning, etc. --- details like repeating too-similar outfits in too short a space of time could get lost in the shuffle.

And Max looks SPECTACULAR in those flying-saucer hats, so, it's all good, in the long run!

Plus, her hairstyling has improved and she's taking along and showcasing her absolutely mouth-watering jewels, too, so it's even MORE all good!

I ain't mad at her!!!!

LOL!!!!

In Wiesbaden, Germany, later today, Máxima has chosen another but quite similar outfit - it's great, but I would not have chosen such a similar outfit on one and the same day.

I love the top and the hat on the first outfit but not the skirt. Really like the second outfit. Love that vibrant color.

On the first outfit, I love the top but not the rest of the outfit. The second outfit is alright.

I'm enjoying it, too, ashelen!

And WHAT a road show it is, to have that ever-interesting, gorgeous, full-of-life, clotheshorse Maxima as one of the stars of it!

I kind of figure that her feet (expensively shod though they may be!) are most likely killing her by the end of each day, lately.

But she never fails to turn on that 1,000-watt smile wherever she shows up, the very next day.

Re the hairstyling:

The thought HAD crossed my mind that after all the shouting with this is over, Max might be lucky to have two hairs left on her head to call her own. All that changing up of hairstyles is a whole LOT of stress to put on ANYBODY'S head, let alone the head of a Queen of a country.

The other side of that coin is that she IS Da Queen. So, I figure she will more than probably have one of the top hairstylists in her country (or the world, for that matter) traveling with her and seeing to it that all the hair work doesn't badly damage her hair and leave her looking like a bejeweled egg.

And even though some of her outfits may be slightly wrong --- or ALL wrong, sometimes! --- I just can't WAIT to see what she'll pull out of her suitcase, next!

GO, MAX!

[dazzling]

The white dress with black lace print was ok for me but once matched with the cardigan it looked really silly.

The recycled is a gorgeous colour but I was never sure about the hat ....

Loved the look but Maxima is a tall woman and not willowy or waif-like so she needs a little more length in the skirt to balance it out, especially if she is wearing a pencil skirt.

Max looked amazing in this ensemble. Every inch a Queen.

Loved both outfits from the top of her stunning hats to the tip of her lovely shoes!

That's the point, they are at home and she is trying to make her mark.

I have an idea that Max is traveling with both a dresser and a hairdresser and we get to admire the finely polished Queen that she is becoming.

Ah . . . who else but Queen Maxima could pull that off with such panache? She absolutely rocks that look!

Wow! What a difference accessories make. In both cases the hat makes almost a whole new look!

No, she is who they have come to see. I think she took a leaf out of Queen Beatrix's book (who probably took one from Queen Elizabeth) . . . when one is out walking among the people everyone should be able to see her coming, fortunately she is tall but more important she is not obscured by all the VIP's, security etc. Those fabulous large hats are a knock-out and she really knows how to wear them with panache!
