King Willem-Alexander and Queen Máxima always start the royal year with two New Year’s receptions. One for the Dutch guests, one for the diplomatic corps. And the second one is always just a little more chic.
The king always wears a morning coat on this occasion. Doesn’t that mean much to you? Then click here. Queen Máxima, in turn, opts for an ensemble made of a beautiful, luxurious fabric. Today she chose a lace dress and wool cape coat from Claes Iversen.

The set is not new. In 2018, Máxima also wore it during the official visit of the Jordanian royal couple.

The dress came into better focus at the presentation of the Prix de Rome (2019).
