Those are very high! I like her coat, I think she's tired to tone pastels, but I don't think it's worked. Hair and makeup on point.

Pretty girl

OMG those heels! The photo isn’t really clear but they look like knitting needles. I don’t think I would ever have been able to walk in them 😱

Eaumyword · 22/02/2025 22:31

She's lovely looking and has a beautifully expressive face.
I like all the pieces, just not together colour-wise.

I agree 😀

Doesn't Amalia look like a mixture of her Mum and Dad.
Some children look like their Mum, some look like their Dad but she has traces of both in her face.

The earrings so 80's

Amalia seems to have been styled by Maxima...

Multi coloured outfit, headband, statement earrings, statement bag, highest of the high heels - let's take it all to the Max!!!!!

She is gorgeous and has perfect, perfect make up. But a simpler bag, no headband and a different coloured suit or coat so less colours overall would have made this utter perfection as an outfit.

KiIIingMeDeftly · 23/02/2025 10:23

Yes, I was just thinking it's a very Max outfit, and a tad mature for a 21yo.

She’s literally head to toe in MaxMara, so you hit the nail on the head on more ways than one there!

She does look very nature for her years, and it’s clearly a deliberate choice - for contrast see her younger sister Alexia when she launched a ship in her first solo engagement a while back. Obviously the different seasons impacted their outfits, but Amalia is definitely going for a more regal look. I think the pink suit is well-suited to her and the headband and big 80s-style earrings actually make it a bit more youthful - but given they are also very Max, they make it look like she’s raided her mother’s wardrobe!

And while we’re speaking of the next generation of European Royals, Princess Estelle is 13 today and looking very grown up in this new portrait.

That's a lovely photo, she really looks like Victoria there.
I agree with pp that Amalia is proper 50-50 Max/Wax!

Amalia's suit looked better as styled for the Greek wedding last Autumn but of course that's a different season. Alexia is wearing her mother's Oscar de la Renta dress for her ship christening.

I can’t imagine looking at my mother’s extensive wardrobe and thinking “Yep, that frilly cold shoulder dress is JUST what I want to borrow”. But she is Max’s daughter, so …. 😀

justasking111 · 23/02/2025 13:52

My mother never had a fine bosom so we rarely shared clothes. There's a limit to what you can share sometimes.

Here's Delphine's outfit. Fairly low key by her standards, though this was a Mass for Deceased members of the Belgian RF, so a solemn occasion as you say.

Is that an expanse of bare thigh??!!

TracyBeakerSoYeah · 23/02/2025 21:03

I think the camera has just bleached out the upper part of Delphine's black tights @Lifestooshort71 unless heavens forbid she's wearing popsox/socks.

Estelle is 13 wow it only seems 5 mins ago that she was 8.

Edit: spelling

Choux · 23/02/2025 21:12

Leather miniskirt and fishnets. I mean what else does one wear to a mass remembering deceased members of the royal family?

Indeed! I was so distracted by the horrible shoes I'd missed the rest. It's certainly a statement.

Eaumyword · 23/02/2025 22:17

Mad shoes on Delphine!
What a gorgeous photo of Max and daughters. All look stunning. That apricot trouser suit looks fab there, it definitely was just a slight mismatch of colours in the more recent photo.

KiIIingMeDeftly · 23/02/2025 23:10

That's Amalia with Max but I don't know who the other woman is. She's definitely not one of Max's daughters!

Eaumyword · 24/02/2025 08:29

Ah yes! Just zoomed in and nope, definitely not a daughter!😆
Like the dress though!

TracyBeakerSoYeah · 24/02/2025 18:53

It's Christianna Vardinogiannis (lady in the white floral print dress)

KiIIingMeDeftly · 24/02/2025 19:58

Ah, and she's now married to Nikolaos of Greece isn't she?

KiIIingMeDeftly · 24/02/2025 20:03

Actually no, that's not her who married Nikolaos. I assume a cousin with a very similar name!

Queen Maxima visiting the Anne Frank exhibition in NYC. I think the outfit is lovely, very appropriate, with what looks like applique or similar. She does look very distressed, understandably.
