Royal Style Watch for November 2025: Duchess Sophie, Queen Maxima, Princess Charlene & more

Now, spooky season is behind us, and we are looking forward to an incredible month of royal style as we enter November. October was a month full of sartorial splendour, with the Princess of Wales, the Duchess of Sussex, and the Duchess of Edinburgh all stepping out on daytime engagements. Royals from around Europe were also showing us what they’re made of with their sartorial displays. The star of the show was Princess Catharina-Amalia of the Netherlands, who attended the swearing-in ceremony of the new Grand Duke of Luxembourg.  She looked spellbinding in an emerald green tulle gown by Monique Lhuillier covered in tiny sparkles. The look was stunning, and reminiscent of the Jenny Packham gown the Princess of Wales wore in Jamaica in 2022 when she attended a dinner hosted by the Governor General of Jamaica during her and William’s Caribbean tour to mark the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee. It was styled with a host of heirloom pieces – Queen Emma’s Diamond Tiara, Queen Maxima’s Diamond and Emerald Earrings, and Queen Wilhelmina’s Emerald Cabochon Brooch. 

Now, we’re looking forward to what the month to come has in store. November has started off strong with outings from Princess Charlene of Monaco and Queen Maxima of the Netherlands. While we wait to see the Princess of Wales’ first look of the month, we’re bringing you regular updates so you won’t miss the royal fashion highlights of the month.
