 I'm not a huge fan of this outfit. The colour is alright, but it's not really my cup of tea and the hat is a little large IMO. But the outfit very 'Maxima'.

Too many shades of camel going on for my taste. I'm not loving the huge hat although it does keep her hair tidy. Looks like she slept in those pants..

I utterly dislike trousers and hats worn together. This time is no different. And the big bow on the blouse and the gigantic hat are too much together. One of the two would be better. Too many shades of camel indeed, and the wrinkled trousers should be burnt. Natan has never made a pair of trousers that flatters a female body.
Anyway, nothing else is new, no other (royal) person in its right mind would wear this outfit. But her personality saves her as usual.

This hat is the most quintessentially 'Maxima' piece, IMO. However, this outfit is kind of 'meh' for me-too much camel.

Not too keen on the baby pink dress with the seams picked out with deep cyclamen. Now had she worn that delightful coat, with or without the hat, it could have been magic.
As to the Orange? She looks wonderful from the top of her head to the tip of her toes, with a special note for her smile.

I quite agree, the hair is amazing and I love the way she has almost hidden her part. A sharp part line would have been too harsh and detracted from the overall look. As to her shoes, both pairs are, quite simply, a delight.

But so very, very, Maxima. Perhaps she could be persuaded to wear large "real" jewels. Maybe tutti-fruitti?

Yes, I agree the dress is too pink or, more correctly too baby pink which is wierd because when she wears it with the matching coat the colour looks almost warm beige and compliments the hat and shoes. An altogether wonderful ensemble.

Hmm, I think we all agree that this is Maxima. Oversized hat, charming look but sometimes a little over the top. But would we have her any other way?
I don't think so . . . Queen Maxima is a continual reveal. She has a whole new "style" and is even wearing her pre-queen wardrobe with a whole new flair. And the hair . . . for every meh there's now at least two wows which is pretty good going when you consider her pre-queen track record.

Máxima attended the Four Freedom Awards ceremony in Middelburg today, May 24, wearing a new dress in orange-red - it's very likely by Natan, as she has one of a similar cut in grey:

 I'm with you on that. Who else but Maxima would pair orange and raspberry and get away with it.
Love, love, love, the raspberry hat, shoes, clutch, and yes there are gloves! Wonderful, elegant raspberry gloves. And thanks to the dress it didn't all look too matchy, matchy.
The gold earrings? Not so much.
Hair? Hmm, interesting. Seems to be either a messy braid or ponytail. But that's okay because it's out of the way and doesn't interfere with the hat, earrings and shoulder-line of her dress.

Nice outfit, surprising is that only QMax could pull this off. She has such a huge personality and can get away with just about anything........love the raspberry hat, gloves and clutch and jacket she is carrying, and the dress, like the fabric also. Earrings, not so much, too big!

The outfit looks great on Maxima and I love the vibrant, tropical colour combination.

Yes I agree, she wears it well. However, if it were on anyone else, I would've thought it was too big and loud, although since it's again very Maxima, she manages to pull it off.

Now mesdames et messieurs... this is style...
The King and Queen of the Netherlands bring a two-day visit to Nordrheinland-Westfalen and Niedersachsen, the two big German states bordering the East of their kingdom. Queen Máxima wore a black-and-white dress, with matching accessoires (hat, gloves, purse).
So to see the Queen wore her new diamond-and-pearl earknobs with old heirloom naturel pearl pendants, a diamond and pearl brooch and a pearl-strings bracelet with diamond clasp. Glamorous.
