A better photo of til's second look:  Photos of the evening, where the royal family did a walkabout and visited two residential care centres   Elisabeth's style is a bit conservative but she's young, she's part of a very conservative royal family, and she's pretty much the only teen heir being trained up for her future role in any big, systematic way. So I think she's doing very well. I've grown so tired of the revealing, skin-tight, shockingly low-cut looks that seem to be de rigeur for girls over the age of 13 that I find it refreshing to see an influential young woman dressed in modest clothing that hearkens back to the 1940s, which I consider the pinnacle of style, class, and elegance in women's fashion. Elizabeth is a breath of fresh air to this 40-year-old French woman!

Yay for Wafflet (even at 75% strength) Car Free Sunday. Here at Beaverhausen Castle, it was scrub out the cat boxes Sunday. I think they had more fun.

 [url]https://virtualtour.monarchie.be[//url] You can now take a virtual, interactive tour of the Belgian royal palace. It's lovely. No sign of where they hide the baby house plants, though

No King's Day ceremony or Te Deum because of COVID.

I completely agree that it is nice to see an 18 year old dressed in something that isn't "FashionNova Influencer with lip injections" look, but there is also a lot of middle ground between the "everything out for a night at the club to post on the gram/TikTok tomorrow to get fire emoji comments" and "I raided grandma's closet for this dress".
Of course, if Elisabeth genuinely likes this style of clothing this comment is irrelevant and she should continue to wear it because she is the one who has to be comfortable and photographed in it. But if it is not truly her style and this is what she "has" to wear for events, there are definitely ways she can be appropriately dressed for an occasion that are not so......middle aged.
