Princess Catharina-Amalia, the future Queen of the Netherlands, is poised to inherit her mother’s exquisite sense of regal fashion.
At just 20 years old, she has graced important and historic events alongside her parents, King Willem-Alexander and Queen Maxima, exuding supreme elegance in ballgowns and designer footwear.
However, it was a particular accessory she modestly sported upon her arrival at the Royal Palace before the Spanish state banquet last week that has captured attention.
The Princess of Orange was seen wearing a longline coat and a bottle green cable knit jumper, with the standout piece being the ‘Suede Tote Bag in Dark Mole’ from Arket. This tote bag has garnered significant attention on TikTok for its versatile shape, size, and the ultra-chic mushroom hue it boasts.
The 20-year-old demonstrated her knack for effortlessly pulling off both contemporary trends and timeless elegance. Later that evening, during a state banquet hosted by her parents for King Felipe and Queen Letizia of Spain, the royal opted for a contrasting ensemble.
According to The Court Jeweller, the Princess made her debut at the state banquet adorned in the stunning Ruby Peacock parure tiara and coordinating necklace, along with ruby and diamond cluster earrings from the Mellerio Ruby Parure. She complemented her lavish jewels with a navy blue caped floor-length gown, marking her fourth tiara appearance, an occasion she evidently relishes.
In Claudia de Breij’s book, “Amalia,” the young royal expressed her fondness for tiaras, stating, “Show me a tiara, and I know where it comes from. I can recognize all the tiaras in Europe.” She reminisced about wearing tiaras from her mother’s collection and how she would even try them on directly from her mother’s dressing table.
Princess Catharina-Amalia further showcased her fashion prowess at Prince Christian of Denmark’s 18th birthday gala, where royals from across Europe convened at Christiansborg Palace. Donning a royal blue floor-length gown with a trailing chiffon cape by Belgian fashion brand Essential Antwerp, she exuded regal elegance.
She accessorized her ensemble with Queen Emma of the Netherlands’ sapphire tiara and added a trendy touch with Manolo Blahnik satin pumps in the shade ‘Hangisi 105’, famously donned by Sarah Jessica Parker’s character Carrie Bradshaw in “Sex and the City” during her wedding to Mr. Big.
While the Princess is often seen in glamorous ballgowns, she also effortlessly transitions to casual styles, such as her choice of the influencer-approved gold ‘Baby Riviera’ bag by Marina Raphael at a reception hosted by the Spanish royals last week. This ability to seamlessly switch up her style further solidifies her status as a fashion icon in the making.
