Renowned for her daring sense of style and unwavering love for vibrant hues, Queen Maxima of the Netherlands has become a symbol of sartorial audacity.
And it seems that her three daughters, Princesses Catharina-Amalia, 20, Alexia, 19, and Ariane, 17, are following in her stylish footsteps.
Since assuming the role of queen consort to her husband King Willem-Alexander of the Netherlands in 2013, Maxima's bold fashion choices have earned her admirers worldwide, solidifying her status as a revered style icon.
She effortlessly wears the spectrum of the rainbow, often accentuated by perfectly co-ordinated accessories.
In recent months, Maxima has elevated her style to new heights, while placing an emphasis on recycling her favourite pieces.

Queen Maxima is a longtime supporter of the Belgian fashion brand Natan, founded in 1983 by Édouard Vermeulen, and has worn no fewer than 153 dresses by the designer.
A notable example is the billowing turquoise shirt dress that she recently donned for the fourth time since 2021.
Crafted from taffeta, the A-line silhouette incorporated a wrap front, rolled-up sleeves and a prominent oversized belt - a recurring detail in Maxima's attire.
Enhancing her vibrant style, she added matching blue gem earrings, patent nude Salvatore Ferragamo pumps and a patterned Rough Studios mini bag.
Last month, Maxima showcased a playful feather-trimmed mini dress by Natan, which was another repeat.
By choosing accessories and jewellery in the same hue, the royal championed tonal dressing, creating another winning look.
However, this wasn’t always the case. In the early years of her marriage, Maxima's outfits were often hit or miss, plagued by unflattering fabrics and clashing colour combinations.
Since then, she has built a collection ofcoveted attire by the likes of Oscar de la Renta, Zimmermann, Max Mara,Victoria Beckhamand Claes Iversen.
Maxima impressed in a gown by the latter on Prince's Day (Prinsjesdag), the opening of Dutch parliament, where she was accompanied by her husband and two eldest daughters.
In September, Maxima re-wore her billowing turquoise shirt dress by Natan for the fourth time
