For the state visit to France, Queen Mathilde dug deep into her pockets. In addition to a red tailor, she also purchased an evening dress from Dior.
The red waistcoat consists of a skirt down to the calf and a jacket with wide three-quarter sleeves, a row of buttons at the center front, a round collar and a belt. From collar to hem, the set exudes the late forties/early fifties. A time when Christian Dior made waves with his New Look.
The dress code was black tie for the banquet. Mathilde completed this with a velvet evening dress from Dior, which was decorated with sparkling embroidery around the shoulders.
In terms of jewelry, Mathilde managed to surprise with new art deco earrings made of sapphire and diamond.
It is suspected that Queen Mathilde has been shopping through the auction again. Several auction purchases have surfaced in recent years, as you can see in the blog below.
