I'm glad there will be a gala dinner at the Grand-Ducal Palace with some foreign royals.
HM King Willem-Alexander
HM Queen Máxima
HRH The Princess of Orange
HM King Filip
HM Queen Mathilde
HRH The Duchess of Brabant
Alse the president of Germany with his partner and the President of France with his wife will attend the gala dinner.
Which tiaras will the royal ladies wear? I'm curious to hear your predictions.
My predictions:
HM Queen Máxima: the stuart tiara in a smaller version
HRH the Princess of Orange: I hope she will wear something she haven't worn yet. So I hope the antique pearl tiara or Queen Emma's diamond diadem.
HM Queen Mathilde: I guess her grandest diadem: The Nine provinces
HRH The Duchess of Brabant: her own diamond diadem ( but I hope to see the laurel diadem from her mother ).
Grand Duchess Stephanie.... I really don't know. Maybe the Belgium scroll diadem. I don't think she will wear the Cathedral.
