the three best-dressed ladies, i think

What about fashion commentary for the other guests? There has been a lot of talk about Mabel's wedding dress but what about the fashions worn by the guests?
For all those who have said that Mabel's sister Nicoline looked lovely, I totally agree. The colour and cut of the dress was lovely. I especially thought that the colour was not only young and spring-like, but very fitting with Nicoline's fair skin and light blonde hair. I didn't even mind the oversized hat -- it didn't overwhelm her face as much as large hats can on some people.
I really liked Maxima's jacket. The cut was gorgeous and simple, with nice detailing around the edge. I wish she had been more colourful, however. Maybe that jacket in a soft pink or light blue?
I think Laurentien looks pretty great for someone who gave birth less than a month ago. Her colour choice was nice, fresh and spring-like (I am all about spring colours!
) But I abhorred the cut of the sleeves on her jacet. The fringe around the eding of the jacket and sleeves was nice, but the flared/cut out sleeves ruined an otherwise nice look.
A bit indifferent at the moment to what Marilene wore. The steel gray colour I am not such a fan of, but the nearly fuschia hat might've saved the outfit for me.
Absolutely loved Annette's very detailed gold and copper-coloured jacket. It really dressed up her plain black dress. I hope I look as radiant and beaming as this when I'm 7-8 months pregnant!
Beatrix's jacket was a very different look for her, but I did like it. Adored the colour. Even the hat I liked; I thought it was a nice, whimsical touch.
I also liked Mabel's mother's outfit, too. Of course the colour! But the high upturned collar and two-toned detailing on the flipped, over sized cuffs were added touches.
Princess Irene's purple metallic jacket was nice and the floral skirt feminne.
Didn't care so much for the long, long, to the ground jacket worn by Princess Christina, but I adored the colour.
Princess Margriet always looks so elegant and lady like, it's hard to come up with a complaint about her.
I liked the bright colour of Maria Caroline's suit, as well. And the cut was simple and elegant, who could go wrong?
I didn't like so much Rosario Nadals' long jarcket with the lower-waisted tie. The jacket and tie elongated her frame but the jacket seemed too big that it made her seem a bit frumpy -- which she certainly isn't from other pictures I've seen of her.
... Any other fashion critics out there?
