#Máxima #outfit #today
We can now call it a tradition: during NLdoet the Oranje wear body warmers from the Oranje Fonds. Máxima took a different approach today and I found that very interesting.
There is plenty of communication through clothing. At the same time, not every dress or jacket is a signal. Máxima’s choice of clothing today raises a lot of questions for me and I will explain why. To promote the Oranje Fonds volunteer day, the Oranges at NLdoet always wear a body warmer from the initiative. Queen Máxima decided to leave the garment at home today and it was then assigned to her appointment this morning. There would have been no time to put on the body warmer. Striking, because visitors to this website know that the queen wore a completely different outfit this morning. If you take the trouble to exchange a top, skirt and tights for a sweater, trousers and jacket, you can still add the body warmer, right?
Because the royal couple is currently on high tension because Vietnam canceled their state visit last minute, clothing choices can sometimes say more than a first glance suggests. But what then? You may have already noticed: Máxima was dressed from head to toe in the colors of the Vietnamese flag: yellow-red. She didn’t want to cover that gesture, if that’s what it was, with a body warmer. But why? What would the signal be? I have no idea and am very curious about your thoughts on this.
