Queen Máxima was invited by ABN AMRO to a meeting on exclusivity in the banking sector. Royalty expert Josine Droogendijk noticed that the Queen borrowed no fewer than three items of clothing from her daughter for this working visit.

Amalia also wore the dark blue cloak she wears on the day of her accession to the Council of State. The same goes for the dark blue pumps. In addition, Amalia already wore the green clutch during King’s Day 2021. To be honest, we will share everything, mother and daughter seem to think.

Cactus leather skirt

Máxima combined the items from Amalia’s closet with a bow blouse and, the eye-catcher, a green skirt made of cactus leather. That is a very nice alternative to animal leather and it will last a lifetime. Josine explains that the ‘leather’ is made from the nopal cactus that grows in Mexico. Only the mature leaves are used so that the plant is not lost.
