The Royal Wardrobe: the Netherlands

Queen Maxima visited Bangladesh in the week and although there were limited photos of her time in the country, there was no doubting from the few that came through that this consort was keeping it colourful on her trip made in her capacity as a special advocate for the Secretary General of the United Nations on inclusive finance.

The brightest of her bursts of colour was worn for a visit to a clothing factory where she heard from workers about the advantages to them of being paid their salaries via digital systems. Her dress, with its fuchsia top and peach skirt, matched the vibrant colours of the environment well.

For her arrival in Bangladesh, Maxima chose a red dress with orange and white patterning and an orange collar matched with a favourite pair of red and clear shoes.

Queen Maxima also met the President of Bangladesh, Abdul Hamid, on the final day of her visit. She wore a black and white print dress with a striking green scarf.

Princess Beatrix went for black and blue for a trip to the ballet. She wore an eye catching cobalt lace effect top and jacket over a black dress for her engagement at the Ballet Gala Foundation Dancers' 79 in Amsterdam. One of the best royal looks of the week.

Princess Beatrix opened a centre for children and families coping with suspected abuse.  The outfit was a smart white two piece skirt suit with black pattern effect and black hat and show.
