I like her dress,it's very pretty.However it looked a lot like Claire's.

I agree. It was a lovely dress, even if it were similar to Clarie's (and many, many other wedding gowns). To me, the different pattens of lace is what sets these two dresses apart from each other - but you have to look closely!

Her gown was beautiful but I agree, it looks so much like Claire's.

The Royal Order of Sartorial Splendor: Wedding Wednesday: Princess Anita's Gown

I thought Anita's wedding dress was beautiful, elegant and classic. I absolutely love the lace top, and the veil and train is simply gorgeous. Her civil wedding outfit was awful however. The print is just too much. Nevertheless, Anita's wedding gown was very beautiful.

I agree. Her hat reminds me of a lampshade!

Laurentien is such a lovely woman with absolutely AWFUL fashion sense. An occasional change is okay because it's fun to try new looks, but she's stuck in the "ugo" (really ugly) clothes section. I've said it before and I'll say it again, Queen Beatrix needs to take some control because Laurentien is representing her family and making everyone gag at her clothing! Someone help the woman.

Maxima looked very nice, but it was probably a little rude to attract so much attention for herself on someone ELSE'S wedding day...

I agree with you, Lady Marmalade, that Queen Beatrix sometimes looks very frumpy. Often times, the lines in her clothing are not the most flattering for her body. For both the civil and religious weddings though, I think the Queen did a marvelous job. The colors and fits were just right.

I didn't like the suit also, Princess Maxima. I found pictures without watermark from ANP.

Pieter-Christiaan and Anita are an extremely happy couple!!
