Queen Mathilde of Belgium struck sartorial gold on Saturday evening as she attended the final evening of the 21st Queen Elizabeth Piano Competition in Brussels.
For the dazzling occasion, King Philippe's wife rocked a gleaming gold sequin dress crafted by Belgian couture label, Natan. Her spellbinding frock featured an elegant boat neckline, draped sleeves, and floral embroidery around the hemline.
Mathilde, 52, paired her party dress with a Giorgio Armani clutch bag, some high-shine gold heels and a statement gold cuff bracelet studded with diamonds. She wore her caramel-hued tresses in a chic updo, and spruced up her look with some megawatt diamond drop earrings.

Princess Elisabeth's major milestone
The Princess has just completed her first year of her two-year master's degree in public policy at Harvard university in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
But her ability to continue at the prestigious university could potentially be jeopardised under the Trump administration ban on foreign students.

The case is set to go before a federal judge in Boston, who will decide whether to continue the Trump administration's policy.
