very very pretty i love the gold shoes and belt

[AdmirerUS]

Metallic and sparkles on shoes should be saved for evening. Just my opinion. I'm an old fogey (and you do not have to agree with me, OK?)

That dress is pure Max. And the headband is too. Good for her.

The picture above is excellent. An example of lighting and angle is all! I'll give it to Maxima, she is daring.

The design for Maxima's outfit is beautiful and there is a very subtle hint of the kimono with the cross-over design of the bodice.

Jacknch, your review of her ensemble is riveting! I feel I must publicly commend you.

However, it does not survive close scrutiny by the camera under adverse lighting. I wonder what the impression was in person. Kudos to Maxima for derring-do!

Wow! Maxima looks great. I love the color, style & the overall look of her outfit!

[Frelinghighness]

Great except for shoes, too high and flashy

What stunning dress! I love the color and the style. That shade of orange is exquisite. The hat is also elegant. What a great start of the visit.

[rubies]

Love the green color and the jewelry accents. (New earrings)? I dont like the fit. It makes her look bigger than she is. I hate tight clothes. Fitted is nice but not tight. Im showing my age!!!!

[Frelinghighness]

Green peplum dres is a wonderful shade and the burgundy hat and shoes are a terrific accent. The dress is a canvas for the gorgeous brooch. Skirt length is perfect for her but the obvious seam right down the front of the bodice, I gasped! Also the way the waist is too high and the bust is not fitted properly makes me think itis a creation of the dreaded n! It is overall too tight and designed for someone with no hips, like most of his work, not for her.

I'm thinking that dread of all female travelers - additional water retention post flight played a part here.

[Marengo]

Hehe, well spotted Frelinghighness, the green outfit is indeed a creation of the dreaded N .

[Jacknch]

A lovely combination of a green and plum - Autumnal hues again, which I like very much!

[HereditaryPrincess]

Maxima looks great! I love that colour on her and even if I don't particularly like the hat, she manages to get away with it as it is very 'her'. Only Maxima (or perhaps Princess Beatrix too) can get away with larger hats such as this. Her latest outfit looks familiar - have we perhaps seen it before?

Her daytime fashion has impressed me so far during the Japanese state visit, if only the same could be said for her evening wear. It will be interesting to see the rest of her outfits during the visit.

[4Pam]

Another great outfit. Great color combination.

This outfit is essentially in the same style as the all-burgundy ensemble from the Spanish visit, the biggest difference being the fabric and the sleeve length. Maxima's using the same hat as well: comparison

not very flattering outfit i don't think suits Maxima figure.

[Marengo]

Indeed, why Mr Vermeulen of Natan thinks it is a wise idea to accentuate the belly is a mystery to me. But then again, many things he does are a mystery.

-
The burgundy hat: it is the first time I see the end of the hat pins coming out of a hat. It appears to be the same hat that HM wore when the Spanish King and Queen were in The Hague.

The colours of the outfits of the queen are very suitable for autumn btw.
