Queen Letizia's black and white tiered gown with sheer panelling and an embroidered skirt was a stunning modern style at a recent engagement.
On Thursday, October 5, the Queen of Spain met with EU leaders in Granada for the European Political Community Summit. The Queen was joined by King Felipe VI at this event as they greeted guests who were also dressed to the nines for this event.
For this event, the Queen wore a Carolina Herrera gown from the Fall/Winter 2017 Collection. The dress had sheer panelling at the top which added a glamorous feel to this silky ensemble and emphasized the round high neckline of this dress. The svelte torso of the dress was a clear contrast with the flamboyant feminine tiered shirt which had delicate layers and was patterned with neat embroidery. In addition to this dress, the Queen completed the look by wearing a black clutch from Magrit and Slingback 105 pumps from Manolo Blahnik.
Her heels had a similar sheer effect that matched the top of her dress and created a cohesive look on the Queen. Slingback heels are one of the key autumn/winter trends of 2023 and there are plenty of heels that are just like the Queen's that are available to shop now - and for an affordable price!

The Queen altered the designer gown so that it had a more demure feel and was less sheer for the important event. This modest alteration didn't harm the style of the look, and if anything it made the 2017 piece timeless and appropriate for wearing fashionably in 2023.
Her Majesty wore a sleek ponytail hairstyle which was parted in the middle and slicked back tight in a neat style. The hair was fastened into a ponytail and curled at the end to soften this chic style. A strand of her hair was also wrapped around her hairband to add a more polished and put-together style.
Recently, the Queen has been seeing a range of fashionable looks. Queen Letizia looked so Parisian chic in Breton stripes and cigarette trousers earlier this month, and her dramatic black dress with Perspex slingback heels and chic clutch was yet another fashionable victory.
