By Rebekah Absalom Published: 06:56, 23 May 2024 | Updated: 06:58, 23 May 2024 e-mail 1 View comments Since joining the Spanish royal family two decades ago, Queen Letizia has transformed into a style icon. The former TV journalist has garnered widespread praise for her impeccable fashion sense. Letizia favours a formula of affordable high street and designer labels, such as Carolina Herrera, Boss, Massimo Dutti and Zara, delighting fans who strive to replicate her style.
Since becoming Queen, her confidence has flourished, leading to increasingly bold and daring fashion selections that often incorporate head-to-toe colour. However, there is a methodical strategy behind these decisions. Letizia cleverly chooses vibrant outfits that highlight her waistline to appear taller than her 5 ft 6 frame, ensuring she stands out in any crowd.
Another savvy tactic she employs is coordinating her footwear with her clothing to create an elongating effect, giving the illusion of longer legs. Here, we reflect on the Letizia's most noteworthy ensembles over the years. Fairytale wedding gown Letizia stunned in an ivory Manuel Pertegaz gown to wed .
