E. Vermeulen/NATAN said that his inspiration was the front of Queen Fabiola Balenciaga's wedding dress.
Utterly ridiculous I agree. To me Mathilde had always been the epitome of sophistication. Refined, restrained, elegant, but utterly appropriate in every way. My only reservation is that perhaps she is a little unadventurous . . . but then, look at that lovely white dress with it's gorgeous neckline and amazing back view!The new Queen looks spectacular. I love her outfit, sooo beautiful. And I really do not understand the Daily FAIL's comment that Mathilde's look would have "certainly won the approval of the Duchess of Cambridge." Are those hacks serious? Mathilde has been on the scene over a decade longer than Kate and she has always been a very elegant woman, and a Lady in the truest sense of the word.
But I am sure she will sleep better tonight, quite relieved that the DM feels she would get the Kate stamp of approval.
I think the Daily Fail inadvertently switched the names and the feeling. "It was a look that must have made the Duchess of Cambridge green with envy!," would be more like it.Daily Mail said:It was a look that would certainly have won the approval of the Duchess of Cambridge.

Overall, I think Queen Mathilde looked lovely at today's mass. The only thing I'm not too sure about is her hat, I think it would've looked nicer if she hadn't added the black band.
Queen Mathilde was shown in a photo with a man helping her get
the hat back on her hat (this was outside) on one blog and then the picture disappeared!
Yes I'd agree there,the hat did look out of place,it nearly fell off a few times as per Maria Olivia who was present at the Mass.
