Queen Máxima's Eveningwear Part 3: March 2015 - April 2016

[Duc_et_Pair]

I like the flowing lines and the print of the jumpsuit, combined with the belt. Typically Máxima. It is not a Primark jumpsuit, eczema-encouraging acryl trash from China with a camel-toe on an unlucky place. It all looks very feminine and fits very much in the retro style which is en vogue now. It is between € 1.400,-- and € 1.600,-- so it is pretty pricey too for a jumpsuit...

I actually like the jumpsuit on her, it fits her well. It is typical Maxima and if she didn't throw us something a little "out there", I'd be disappointed.

Personally, I'd never wear never a jumpsuit but Maxima pulls it off nicely. I think she looks great.

i actually like this! the print is very nice and the fit suits maxima's tall figure. the only critique for me would be that is draws too much attention onto her, but i actually really like it, even if it's not my kind of style.

I think it is awful! Certainly not regal in any sense of the word. Max loves to push the envelope but this is pushing it too far...

Looking regal was not required here. It was not a glamorous James Bond première but a festival of arthouse films which will not soon reach mainstream cinemas. When it is needed, like the concert by the Koninklijk Concertgebouw Orkest in Brussels, a few days ago, she can look drop dead fabulous indeed. Máxima is quite flexible in that and maybe that is her secret: she never holds the royal facade 24 hours a day like Queen Beatrix did (and Princess Beatrix still does).

I wouldn't use it, I don't like it , but she doesn't look so bad either! I guess she like to try different things and this is not a formal event so I guess it is ok!

I think she looks wonderful in the jumpsuit. Not only has she gauged the clothing type for event perfectly, she has done it with her own inimitable style, namely the addition of the belt. Without that belt I would definitely not be a fan.

Her jewellery is a perfect matched to the style of the ensemble and her accessories, while being remarkably restrained for Max, are beautiful.

I adore Q Maxima, love her flamboyant personality and how she translates that into her clothing style, and I love this pant suit for that reason. I think it's amazing she pulls it off, I can't think of many people who could (Nicole Kidman comes to mind).

My only gripe is the omega necklace, it's screams 1980s costume jewelry to me, it really looks cheap. I had the same feeling with P Sofia's earrings the other day, maybe it's just me. Love her fan shaped earrings though!

I like it all. I think she can carry it off and it "matches" the occasion.

[ladongas]

And the colors are great on her!

The necklace is not new and as the Queen is a true globetrotter, her rock hard euros on her mega platinum Orange-Nassau credit card will give her an enormous purchase power in Buenos Aires, Mumbai or Bucharest, God knows where she buys her accessoires.. I think it is real gold or guilded bijoux which is fancy enough for her to have an outing so now and then...

Oh, I'm sure it's real, it's just kind of plain, but that's what the outfit called for and anything else would have been too much.

I guess retro is 'in' this year or else I'm just noticing it for some reason, since I was definitely a victim of the 80s I may be a little over-sensitive.

OH to be a fly on the wall at one of HM's bijoux shopping excursions!

I would love to go shopping with heer and of course with her credit card also!

According to a poster on the Royal Jewels Message Board, the golden bijoux worn by Máxima were from Joël Arthur Rosenthal (JAR), Place Vendôme 7, Paris... Definitely no plastic...

I like the jumpsuit it's fashionable, trendy, I like the colours combination too but I guess with dark blue belt would looks more elegant.

[bertie5252003]

I actually really like the jumpsuit on her the colours are gorgeous and the choker really suits the retro look.

The only plastic on Maxima is in her wallet, and plenty of it I'll wager.

Hey, maybe her platinum card is really platinum!

She possibly even has no card: "Send the invoice to the palace, please" or "This lady here will take care of that business" (pointing to one of her staff...)
