In each of her appearances, Queen Maxima of the Netherlands manages to surprise, but this time, it was with an unexpected detail that she won all the votes.
Always where you least expect her, Queen Maxima of the Netherlands continues to assert her taste for expressive and joyful fashion. During her latest appearance in Suriname, South America, she once again captivated the audience with an incredible accessory and ensemble, perfectly in keeping with her signature chic and contemporary spirit.
From the first glance, it is her chocolate dress, sober but luxuriously structured, that catches the eye. The straight, almost architectural cut highlights its silhouette with very studied simplicity. The slightly falling sleeves, the thick material so you don’t feel cold and the minimalism of the model say it all: here, no need for embellishment. At the heart of this seemingly demure outfit lies a spectacular royal accessory. A graphic and theatrical hat from the brand Bettina Thomas from the collection Birds of South Africa. Impossible to remain indifferent to this unusual hat, a true workshop piece that flirts with contemporary art. With its very large, almost floating oval shape and its asymmetrical curves which unfold in arabesques around the face, the accessory seems to defy the laws of balance. However, this is not the first time that the sovereign has worn it: a true favorite of her wardrobe, Maxima has already worn it on numerous occasions, notably in 2020, for the inauguration of the Theater Zuidplein in Rotterdam.
This choice is not trivial. Máxima has always excelled in the very European art of the statement hat. Like no one else, she knows how to combine tradition and modernity, protocol and fantasy. Here again, it transforms a simple accessory into a true centerpiece, adding an irresistible dynamic to its look. On Instagram, her look also won all the votes. The royal couple was able to enjoy numerous compliments from Internet users: “Beautiful as always! Very pretty couple”, “Beautiful photos of a super beautiful royal couple, unique in the world”…
And this is undoubtedly where the secret of his style lies: a rare balance between elegance and eccentricity. Impeccable mastery, always enhanced with a surprising twist, like this incredible hat, which will be remembered for a long time.
