The gala dinner in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg was a true showcase of royal elegance. Following the proclamation of Grand Duke Guillaume, the palace opened its doors to a night filled with symbolism, brilliance, and a wealth of fashion.
As expected, all eyes were on the ladies of European royalty, who interpreted the gala code with styles that were as diverse as they were striking.
The new Grand Duchess, Stéphanie, opted for continuity: she wore the same Elie Saab dress she had worn at the morning ceremony, a gesture that could be seen as a sign of sobriety and aesthetic coherence.
The design, with its flowing drape and elegant tone, perfectly complemented the Belgian scroll tiara and a Chaumet ring.
Among the guests, two notable style icons stood out: Queen Máxima of the Netherlands and Queen Mathilde of Belgium.
Máxima remained loyal to her favorite designer, Natan Couture, wearing a deep red dress, Aquazzura sandals, and the sapphire tiara from the royal parure.
Mathilde, for her part, opted for a pleated lace Armani Privé, complemented by the Nine Provinces tiara and an impressive Graff diamond necklace.
Both confirmed, once again, that glamour and royalty are not at odds with naturalness.
The heiresses also had their moment. Princess Amalia dazzled in a Monique Lhuillier dress and Queen Emma’s diamond tiara, while Princess Elisabeth of Belgium opted for the sophistication of Jenny Packham, a design that balanced modernity and tradition.
It was impossible not to notice how the young royals, with their unique style and fresh elegance, are crafting a new visual narrative within the European royal houses.
