On Tuesday, July 25, 2023, the Queen of Spain wore a Carolina Herrera black and white floral shoulder strap A-Line dress with a bow. This dress looked simply incredible on Her Majesty as the delicate grey watercolour rose pattern on the skirt contrasted perfectly with the bold black satin design at the top of her dress and across her shoulder straps and bow at her waist.
The gown has a perfect 50's fit and flare style as the skater style skirt began at the Queen's waist and fell neatly to just above her ankles. The ruched design of the bodice also added another textural layer to the gown and hugged Letizia's svelte torso.
The dress was perfectly complemented with a pair of black suede slingback pumps - which were also from Carolina Herrera - and a black clutch from Varela. The Queen accessorised with a pair of medium-sized silver hoop earrings and minimal jewellery, so the dress was the real star of the look.
Of course, this incredible dress has garnered a great deal of attention and fans have not been holding back when it comes to complementing this fabulous look.
"This is just utter perfection from head to toe. The entire look is stunning. This looks quite 1950s inspired but it does not look dated or like a costume. It looks classic and chic. Just Wow!!" said one very enthusiastic fan.
"Hit! Hit! Hit! Perfectly classic but energetic." said another."WOW WOW WOW. The best royal outfit ever!" one fan even claimed.
