Stunning hat!
It reminds me a bit of Märtha Louise's Hat she wore for the Princes' of Asturias wedding.. 
But it looks much better on Maxima! :)

Maxima looked great, once again. She can pull off almost anything! Her hat is very original and so is her skirt, but somehow they really suit her! :)

What a hat! Looks wonderful on Maxima. Not so great what she was wearing though. So is the statue part of an exhibit?

The statue was made especially for the Museum Beelden aan Zee (Statues at the Sea). They asked the artist to make it and it will be part of the collection of the museum.

The hat seems a rather typical Fabienne Delvigne design, it reminds me of the hat Laurentien wore at Amalia's christening. I must say the sculpture doesnt really resemble Maxima IMO.

Like the top, love the skirt, love the color red, but I don't they go together. They look like different shades of red. I also don't think they go together well style-wise, there's too much going on between the pleats in the top and sleeves and the heavy flounces of the skirt. I also don't like the hat, but I admit I prefer more traditional styles. I do think she looks great in red, as always.
I also think her hair and makeup look fantastic. And i like the fun earrings, too.
I really don't like the statue: it looks so lifeless, esp with the laughing, lively, colorful princess herself in the picture.

About the statue, the most beautiful thing of Máxima is the expression on her face by her eyes, and the eyes are just dark... So im agree about it the statue that it is liveless.

Patrick van Katwijik,
I am so impressed with your photography. This picture of Maxima is different than any other I've seen, you manage to capture her personality in ways most candid paparazzi shots don't. You have a special talent. I'd love to hear more about you experiences photgraphing members of the royal family.

I see your point and you're right in that the Dutch crown princely couple has had a pretty tight schedule of late. Good for them, and good for the Dutch, the people they are lucky to represent.
All the same, frankly, if someone decided to give me $50,000+ per MONTH to travel the world to rub shoulders with kings and presidents and soccer players and ride horses in exotic places as a means to promote a small, quirky country, I'd sign up in a heartbeat & take the occasional tiredness and jet lag for granted.

AND, it has to be said, in ways the new sculpture doesn't manage either! Although admittedly, producing a decent sculpture in itself is already no mean feat, let alone capturing the essence of an anything-but-placid, LIVING character such as Maxima. That's a completely tricky thing, and frankly I am not surprised that this particular attempt is getting mixed reviews.
I for one <do> think it does resemble the princess well, but I agree that particular, unique 'Maxima spark' is decidedly absent...normal for a statue, you could argue. This is why I'm more in favor of waiting with those kinds of portrait statues until a person's passed on. That way, the statue has less of a hardship 'competing' with the image of the living subject..:)

I think due to the overexposure from Maxima after her trip to Mongolie there is not much attention for the unveil of her statue. And just at this time she is really packing out with her clothes. You should say such a skirt is meant to be for a cocktail party. Shame there are no pictures of her full body. She looks so pretty this time. Only Patrick has a few pictures of her, but his logo is so disturbing. Above all I missed the NOS journal with an item about it and I can't see it on the computer because the viewprogramm didn't work.
SO IF ANYBODY HAS NICE PHOTO'S OF HER IN THIS OUTFIT WITH HER COMPLETE POSTURE. PLEASE POST THEM. I WILL BE VERY VERY GRATEFULL.
