On December 5, 2024, Queen Letizia of Spain attended El Mundo's (The World) 35th anniversary ceremony at the Cibeles Palace in Madrid. The Queen presented the 22nd edition of the El Mundo International Awards to Xavier Colás, a Russia specialist from El Mundo newspaper, and Michael Reid, a British journalist and columnist for The Economist specializing in Latin America and Spain.
Die Königin sieht wieder sehr elegant aus. Ich bin nur kein Fan asymmetrischer Schnitte.

DeleteI like the unusual shoulder design of this dress. The length is perfect and the tweed fabric is suitable for cooler weather.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful hair. Wish she could share her tips with Maxima. Not that she would listen.
ReplyDeleteBorn with different hair. Harder as we age. Maxima works with what she’s got, in the way she wants.
DeleteShe and Maxima have different hair types, so what works for one does not work for the other.
DeleteI agree, Queen Letizia’s hair is always so sleek and well-maintained! Her style definitely has a polished, effortless look. As for Queen Máxima, she has her own distinct style, and it's always interesting to see how different royals embrace their unique looks. It’s fun to appreciate the diversity in their appearances, even if they approach things differently!

DeleteThere are not tips. Queen Letizia has thick and strong hair, Queen Maxima doesn't. She has fragile and thin hair. Like so many other ladies there is a hugh difference in hair qualities. Because they are queens they are photographed more than anyone else, so the difference in their is more visible. They do have something in common, they both speak Spanish.
I love this dress, the shoulder design looks good, it adds interest to this dress. It suits her beautifully. The fit is perfect, love the length. Her shoes are a good choice. The earrings are fabulous.
ReplyDeleteI love everything about this dress but that odd shoulder element. Everything looks fabulous here--including Queen Letizia. I get the idea of updating traditional looks but this is not a good execution of that idea. The front of the dress survives the altered neckline but the back looks oddly pulled to accommodate the different set of the neckline.

Queen Letizias dress is both chic and elegant. It was an ideal choice for such a formal occasion, striking the right balance between regal and understated.
ReplyDeleteLove the dress, but sometimes a wonder in general how many dresses etc are rented or given by the designers. Some queens once in a while rewear their clothing but in general you see every week new ones.
ReplyDelete.
That is no right, Letizia usually wears her dresses even 7 times, but sometimes every two years so you are not aware. There are blogs where they show It.

DeleteIf you follow some queens in particular you would know that many among them are wearing clothes that are sometimes 10 years old. Queen Maxima has worn during summer and now clothes she has made longer because they are from a period that the length of the dresses and skirts were shorter. Other Queens like Mary of Denmark has changed a lot of her evening gowns by adding something (sleeves i.e) or taking away something and replace it by something else (an ornament, or a bow, i.e.). Also when a queen has daughters she passes sometimes clothes which belong to her, to one or two of her daughters. I think they have less dresses "given" by designers than we think. Maybe if they are client since a long time at the same designer they can buy at a special price. Sometimes they hire a dress for an evening and we never see it again. Many solutions are possible.....
Dear No Name 8:00, I understand that the British royal family is not allowed to accept loans or gifts from designers and one can tell that most royal houses in Europe follow this policy. Queen Letizia certainly rewares, the Scandinavians do,
ReplyDeleteto give you examples. The princely house of Monaco is probably loaned their garments from Chanel, which is a pity. The only royals who constantly wear new clothes are the queen of Jordan and Maria Teresa of Luxemburg, as far as I can tell. How did you come to this conclusion.

DeleteAbout Queen Rania of Jordan, I don't know. But GD Maria Teresa of Luxemburg does not constantly wear new clothes. She has a series of blazers she wears regularly. She also has evening gowns which she has worn several times. To give you one example : at the Olympic Games in Paris there was a diner in the Louvre for the Heads of States, Maria-Teresa wore an evening dress that she has worn several times in the past. Maybe she matches her jackets with another skirt or dress or pants so that you think she is wearing something new but she isn't.

DeleteThe royal houses in Europe do not follow the policy of the British. I know at least of two royal houses that they hired evening dresses from an exquisite boutique. They payed the money to hire the dress, just like men can hire a tuxedo or a morning suit. Queen Letizia is often wearing clothes from ready-to-wear high street brands. If you wear haute couture and you regularly buy at the same designer, I think they make a special price for you. I don't see why a queen cannot/may not accept that. After all she is paying it with the money of the tax payers, so a little % is welcome. You say that "the princely house of Monaco is probably loaned their garments from Chanel". This might only be true for Charlotte Casiraghi who is a model for Chanel and Princess Caroline is wearing clothes, handbags and shoes by Chanel, but since she wears regularly the same things, I think they are her own. All the others are wearing clothes from different designers. Beatrice Borromeo is a model for Dior. She receives probably clothes to wear of this brand to make publicity for them just like Charlotte is doing for Chanel.
Modèle de robe asymétrique sobre qui lui va bien ; au niveau du tweed, j'aurais vu un tissu avec plus de légèreté afin d'apporter un meilleur look !
