Queen Letizia of Spain opted for another royal rewear for her latest engagement at the Palacio de la Zarzuela in Madrid on Wednesday. The Spanish royal hosted a delegation from the Microfinanzas BBVA Foundation, wearing a design she repurposed from 2024.
Spain’s queen consort wore a dress courtesy of Adolfo Domínguez, a designer whose dresses she wore for various occasions in the past. The look featured some retro inspiration, thanks in part to the statement smocking at the waist.

Queen Letizia’s cotton gray blue midi dress featured a wide elastic waist, also known as smocking. The dress was also designed with long sleeves and statement cuffs with an asymmetrical hem at the front of the look.
Along with her statement-making dress, Queen Letizia wore a pair of soft brown patent leather slingback pumps courtesy of Magrit. As for jewelry, Spain’s queen consort kept her look very simple, favoring a pair of metallic gold hoop earrings and a ring on her index finger.

Like several European royals, including the U.K.’s Kate Middleton and Queen Camilla, Queen Letizia has a penchant for royal rewears. The Spanish royal previously wore this Adolfo Domínguez dress in June 2024 for a meeting with the Board of Trustees of the FAD Youth Foundation at the Netflix studios in Madrid.
Queen Letizia regularly rewears and styles pieces from her royal wardrobe that are staples for major events and public engagements. The Spanish royal has reworn pieces courtesy of designers Carolina Herrera and Mango, among others.

Queen Letizia’s Adolfo Domínguez frock also serves to juxtapose the royal’s love of power suiting moments, which also feature dominantly in her royal wardrobe. Back in March, Queen Letizia elevated her power suiting style with a pinstripe look from Sandro, a French label recently worn by Princess Beatrice at The Championships, Wimbledon on Monday.
