Made with a stunning flowy fabric, this dress is in a wrap style - which flatters most body shapes. It has a lapel collar and buttons down the front. An adjustable bow at the waist cinches the dress in as much or as little as you'd like. The sleeveless style is perfect for warmer weather, but this dress would also look great with a cardigan or blazer on chillier days.

Queen Letizia's white belted dress is sleeveless, which appears to be a favorite style for the royal as she's often seen sporting the classic look. A modest neckline and midi-length pencil skirt is complemented by a belt - which shows off her waist - while a slit at the front makes it an easier-to-wear look. Her simple dress contrasted her daughters Princess Leonor and Infanta Sofia - who both went for bright colors and patterns.

Unlike Queen Letizia's summer dress, which was polka dot perfection, worn recently as she delivered "La Caixa" Scholarships at the Caixa Forum cultural center in Madrid - this particular dress was all white.

If examples like Kate Middleton's Wimbledon dress from 2017 and Queen Camilla’s monochrome Ascot outfit are anything to go by - monochrome is a hot ticket among the royals.

Carving out her own sartorial path, Queen Letizia of Spain’s white waistcoat and chic A-line skirt has previously proved that she's a big fan of wearing white. So we'll assume that red wine is off the menu at any Spanish Royal Family events! Her outfit of choice was worn at the General Military Academy in Zaragoza - a visit that's rue to have stirred some emotions for the mom of two.

This is as Princess Leonor, the Royal Family princess heading to military training, is enjoying the last of her freedom before she ships off to the academy in August. The young royal just graduated from UWC Atlantic College in Wales and is one of the European Royals with a lot to live up to - as she's the heir to the Spanish throne.

Attending the military academy is a family tradition and she's following in her father's footsteps before her. During her training, the young royal will spend time with the armed forces, the Spanish navy, and the air force.
