Queen Letizia of Spain embraced a classic silhouette with contemporary flair for her latest royal outing on Monday in Montserrat, Spain. The royal couple attended a ceremony to commemorate the 1,000th anniversary of the foundation of the Monastery of Montserrat alongside their 21-year-old marriage, King Felipe VI.

For the summertime outing, Queen Letizia opted for a sleeveless denim dress courtesy of Carolina Herrera, a designer the Spanish royal regularly wears. The fit-and-flare midi dress is crafted from cotton denim and accented with vertical seams and contrasting stitching.

Elements of the Carolina Herrera-designed dress included a round neckline, side pockets and a belted waist with buckle lined in the same fabric. The belt detail gave the dress added definition to the silhouette, creating a form-fitting look and feel with classic elements married to a contemporary edge.

For the finishing touches to her look, Queen Letizia added a pair of patent leather red shoes with a slight heel and buckle details. She also wore a pair of delicate earrings with green colorways. Her glam included bold brows and lined eyes, with her hair styled with a side part.

Carolina Herrera is a prominent designer in Queen Letizia’s royal wardrobe. The Spanish royal recently wore another look by the Venezuelan American fashion designer on Friday for the celebration of the 2024-2025 academic year of the College of Europe in Bruges, Belgium. The elegant blue midi dress was paired with heels courtesy of Spanish brand Magrit.

Rewears, a popular trend among royals, are also a staple of Queen Letizia’s wardrobe, with Carolina Herrera designs among the Spanish royal’s go-to pieces. In December 2024, Queen Letizia re-wore the designer’s Poppy Print Knit Skirt in black, pairing it with a red blouse and black boots.

The summer 2024 season also saw several Carolina Herrera designs worn by Queen Letizia. The Spanish royal wore a floral shirtdress from the designer’s CH Carolina Herrera label and a red midi dress for the 2024 Union of European Football Associations Championship Euro match, both occasions in July 2024.
