Royal coronation: King Willem-Alexander of the Netherlands
King Willem-Alexander of the Netherlands has begun his reign by paying tribute to his mother Princess Beatrix who abdicated in his favour after 33 years as Queen. The King and Queen Maxima have three daughters, Catharina-Amalia, 9, who as the heir apparent will become the Princess of Orange, Alexia, 7, and Ariane, 5. With her easy charm and ready smile, Princess Maxima was quick to win over the Dutch people, immersing herself in the language and culture of her adopted country and even swimming in an Amsterdam canal for charity.
Royal Bride: Maxima Zorreguieta and Crown Prince Willem-Alexander of the Netherlands
It is obvious why Valentino is often chosen to design the dresses worn by high-profile brides on their big day. And for Maxima Zorreguieta, her wedding to Crown Prince Willem-Alexander of the Netherlands, was surely the most important day of her life, meriting a creation fit for a future queen from the Italian couturier.
Maxima and her mother-in-law, Queen Beatrix, travelled to the designer’s studio in Rome to discuss their requirements for a gown that would take people’s breath away the world over. And Valentino lived up to his reputation, creating an long-sleeved cowl necked confection, made of ivory Mikado silk, which flared out slightly from the waist, emphasising the princess’s neat figure.
