Nice Photos!

[CD.]

Maxima looks good from the waist up. The dress is too tight below and shows off her baby fat. The colour looks nice on her though.

Letizia's dress, on the other hand, was too loose from the waist down. The dress just 'hangs' like still on a rack. She looks lovely though, regardless.

QB looked like something from a Dracula movie...I hate what she is wearing but granted she is older, she is forgiven.

Mable, sans bows, looks lovely. Cristina looks nice too. I don't like the slick hairdo of Laurentien but she is forgiven wearing a lovely outfit.

Is Maria Maxima's mother? She looks lovely.

I'd like to comment of Mary but she didn't turn up.

That deserves another add on your reputation

   I was just reading on the GREMB about the celebration and there was a question about the Danish Crown couple being absent and someone answered that they were not invited.  I don't know if that's true, it would be strange that all other Royal Houses were invited and exclude the Danish.

So many of the ladies look like knockouts!

I know what you guys are saying about Maxi's hips, but she and Cristina have the same body. I really like that they don't seem to care that they have tummy pooches now. Maybe the problem is that Max's dress looks a little bit a party version of a tube dress to go to the beach in.

I don't like the bodice of Leti's gown, a little too Barbie princess for me. It's not very stylishly cut. But the skirt is beauuuutiful. Earrings are distracting, like fairy antennae. I don't know why, but hope they're serving double cheeseburgers at the dinner.

Mabel and Laurentien look great. Sophie's fabric pattern isn't so nice. So, she's preggers? Carrying that weight well. Rosario looks like she stuffed tissue into her dress. I hate those Valentino One Boob Up, the Other Pushed Down dresses.

Winner: Mathilde for doing something about her non-existant shoulders.

Overall, very elegantly turned out guests.

Thanks very much for the photos!!!

Maxima's outfits are often shocking and/or ill-fitting BUT it really doesn't bother me as much as Mosh's frequent fashion faux paux.  Maxima has so much warmth, sincerity and self-confidence that you can look past the clothes.  With Mosh, she is so cold, arrogant and uninteresting as a person - and because she believes she is a 'fashion icon' - that all the mistakes are highly-visible and inexcusable.

Well Freddy turned up so that can't be true. But I do think that something is amiss...just don't know what it is. It's unlike Mary to miss a Gala . No, something isn't right.

   Mathilda looked elegant and Cristina was too. Of course I'm partial to Cristina because she's a favorite of mine!   I didn't like either Letizia or Mette-Marit in white and not crazy about Sophie's gown either. Victoria was smashing.

[CD.]

I feel for Victoria. She didn't know whether to walk besides Haakon or behind. She felt unsure. Pity that 'guy' she is with hasn't proposed as yet.

[Elissa]

At TRF, they said that apparently Frederik arrived at 10 PM only...and Mary did not attend.

Mathilde's dress was certainly a tribute to the House of Orange! Nice cut though.

Sophie of Wessex looked like she was going to a party on the beach!!!She must be a bit tired, with her pregnancy , that trip and the Diana tribute.

Curiouser and curiouser...Any pics of Fred at the party?

My fav gowns:Victoria &Laurentien.Maxima´s gown would have been better with some support /lift  of the bust .
Christina should pluck or wax her eyebrows,her gown makes her hips look huge
Rosario reminds me of the living dead.
There´s something I didnt like about Letizia´s gown.I think it looks too loose on the top
Princes Alexia is such a cutie! Her big sis is very charming.
