Exactly so! Except for the oddity of that angle of the picture, though, I really like this dress. Very interesting.

The dress is lovely from a distance but up-close the fabric is not nice at all. Her overall makes it work.

I love it stunning IMO even the hair.

Oh lovely - a little black cocktail dress rounds things off nicely for these two state visits!

[rubies]

Nicely worn with the emeralds.

There only thing I would change would be the gold bow lining - and not just because of the dodgy chest part.
This is another dress that I would like to see a full length version of.
We've certainly been very lucky with some amazing and experimental outfits these last days, so I'm looking forward to tomorrow!

First- How about fuchsia, lavender, or turquoise? Red may be a little much. I could be HM fashion stylist!
Second- Love it, but only on Max.

This dress suits Maxima very much though not a fan of the feathers. The hairstyle is great!

[Amberrose]

Love the look, Maxima looks amazing, she should wear soft curls more often! :)

a repeated dress?
great one anyway she looks pretty.

[MagMil]

She looks phenomenal in both state visits

[Frelinghighness]

Don't like the crow feathers but the dress is nice and love the pointy shors. Great earrings

[4Pam]

I love the feathered dress. The first dress, not so much.

Those hose are bunching - see the dark and more opaque sections?

[udyusa]

I certainly do, and it looks awful. I also do not care for the pointy shoes. The dress is pretty, but the fit is not.

[Duc_et_Pair]

I love the black outfit with the feathers and the pinty shoes, pretty edgy.

[HereditaryPrincess]

I had wondered what was going on in the top half, thanks for pointing out that it is feathers, iceflower. Overall, I love the dress, as the colour suits her a lot. But, I'm not a fan of the top half as it looks a little odd to me, and I'm not the biggest fan of her shoes either. They're a little awkward and pointy in shape for me.

The feathers - all I could think was "Malificent crossed with Phyllis Diller." I am sure this is a US thing and only for ladies my age. Dear Phyllis wore a lot of feathers.
It was all very Max, but I could not get the images out of my mind.

November 8, 2014 - Lace navy dress with a wrap.

Not a pretty dress at all. The flowers look childish and the band under the bust is very maternity style.

I like the dress but that hair? Looks like a greasy mess!!
