The Dutch Royal Family attended one of the most important events of their year – Prinsjesdag, the official opening of parliament.
And while King Willem-Alexander gave the speech from the throne, Queen Maxima, Princess Amalia, and Princess Alexia stole the spotlight.

The Princess of Orange also made a statement in a full-length gown- she wore the Safiyaa Sarita Long Dress that has a strong silhouette with floor-length sleeves and a triangular cut-out at the neck.
