She is so beautiful. She seems very gentle too. I love her hairdo (in French here, we call those curls: des boudins- and I'm sure it comes from old French of back then..since we still use lots of those expressions). I think this particular style may have been her trademark- since she wore the look so well- she may have even been the trendsetter for this look. Thanks for the clip:)
She really did love that hairdo! She was such a beautiful and interesting woman, who has tended to be forgotten or neglected, overshadowed by later Belgian queens, so I try to promote her on this blog.
Thanks for the kind comments:)
