A pity we have no photo of the dress while the Queen is standing. It reminds me a bit of her beautiful blue Armani privé gown that was worn at the pre-wedding dinner for the Hereditary Grand Duke - albeit mixed with an ice-skating costume.

Mathilde looks every inch the regal queen that she is. Magnificent!?

 

[An Ard Ri]

Very regal and queenly which comes naturally to Queen Mathilde.

 

[HereditaryPrincess]

Mathilde looks like a fairy queen here - cheesy, but true! I couldn't find another way to describe her. I hope she wears this gown again.

 

[Princess B]

The gown looks beautiful. I’d love a picture of her standing up or even to see the gown in motion.
I think it’s one of her best gowns

I dislike the dress. Beautiful color and jeweled details but I find the dress too much.

I don't quite like the pleats but neverless very pretty look from Queen Mathilde. Pale colors tend to wash wearer out but this strong color looks really good and eyecatching. She's certainly dressed to impress.

I really like this gown she looks like what she is a Queen.

I find this dress awful. Terrible print.

 

[Moonmaiden23]

I don't like it as much as her banquet gown but I don't hate it either.

I like Stephanie's caftan gown more.

The evening dress was made by Natan. A nice reminder that he does produce nice work every now and then.

As I suspected yesterday the purple dress is from Armani Privé.

Like the Armani except the pleats. The silver one is nice but could be fitted better to flatter her figure. Her hair and jewels make the outfits especially the long diamond earrings

I like this one. Mathilde looks lovely. However, should the King's order chain be under the jacket or is it correct on top as he wears it? As it is, it looks like a last minute oops I forgot something as he was going out the door.

 

[theroyalfly]

Not quite the couples' night. Looks like the King's chain was not properly put.

 

[maria-olivia]

Is it the same dress she wore before ??

 

[Mbruno]

Is it the same dress she wore before ??

You mean the same she wore at the enthronement ceremony ? I don’t think so.

 

[muriel]

Elegant as the dress was, I thought it was very ageing on Mathilde. Perhaps I might have a different view if I saw better pictures.

 

[julia garcia roch]

Matilde always looks regal. I like both the evening dresses, in Japan and in Luxemburgo.

 

[Mbruno]

That happens a lot to Mathilde. She is only 46, which is not an old age by current longevity standards, but she often wears clothes that make her look older. In fact, she already did that when she was in her 3Os and very young looking.

A very stunning gold gown. She looks very regal.

 

[wyevale]

Best 'in Queens' tonight.. imho...

 

[Princess Xenia]

Lovely dress, Mathilde looks very regal in it. About the color I’m undecided, on one hand it makes her look older IMO, on the other hand it looks quite elegant. Though I am a bit disappointed in not seeing a necklace or a brooch.

Yes, it is disappointing and a little sad that Mathilde doesn’t wear even the little jewelry she has, but then again , we never know which items she actually owns and which ones are loans.

I understand the Belgians have this concept of a frugal, scaled-down monarchy , but Mathilde’s minimal collection is barely enough to maintain the royal dignity.

 

[An Ard Ri]

Queen Mathilde is the best dressed queen tonight but the colour makes Mathilde look a little washed out.

 

[Duke of Marmalade]

safe but boring, I preferred the daytime dress to this gold dress.
