Royal Fashion Minute: Belgium Edition--Helene d'Udekem d'Acoz And Nicolas Janssen Wedding In Bastogne Belgium
Countess Bride...
Bride-and-Groom Perfect: Countess Helene d'Udekem d'Acoz, sister of Princess Mathilde of Belgium and Baron Nicolas Janssen This past Saturday, there was another royal wedding--well, let's just say "Sub-Royal" but Royal nonetheless. Countess Helene d'Udekem d'Acoz, sister of Princess Mathilde of Belgium and Baron Nicolas Janssen got married at the Eglise Saint Pierre in Bastogne Belgium.
The bride wore a very traditional ivory fit-to-flare Princess Seamed gown with embroidered lace overlay, v-neckline and slight fluttery cap-length sleeves. Her veil was lace--the choice of Royals. Simple pearl earrings finished off her Bridal Look.
Princess Mathilde of Belgium and Prince Philippe of Belgium--Duke of Brabant and Heir to the Belgium Throne were in attendance of course. Princess Mathilde wore a chic off-the-shoulder nude sheath dress with lace applique while her gray-haired Prince was in his traditional "Morning Suit".
Anna Maria Komorowska, Mother of the Bride--and Princess Mathilde--looked très elegant in a light gray suit and stunning hat. Anna Maria is a Polish Noblewoman--her family--the Komoroskis--were members of Polish Aristocracy, darlings...One doubt and just take a look at the Vintage diamond necklace of hers!!! Priceless.
Baroness Therese Bracht and Charles Antoine Janssen: They were some of the most superb-looking guests at the wedding. Love that dress and especially that Fascinator she is wearing. And let's just say that I bet those pearls are HERS!! Worth EVERY Euro!!! J'Adore his Boutonniere!!! (given to all the "A-List" Male Guests)
Queen Fabiola of Belgium: Madrid Spain-born HM Queen Fabiola of Belgium attended--also in a light gray suit, matching tie-neck blouse, pashmina and printed stockings (girl's got style!). To finish her ensemble, she chose a Chanel quilted purse and gray heels. At almost 83 years old, she is still "working" the heels!!! Interesting to note that even though 60% of the Belgium population speak Dutch/Flemish, she has a difficult time with that language...
