Queen Letizia of Spain put a summery spin on her power suiting style with a linen look courtesy of Hugo Boss on Friday in Madrid. The Spanish royal styled breezy attire with appropriate, streamlined elements for her royal engagement with the Spanish Agency for International Development Cooperation.

Queen Letizia wore the Jopeta relaxed-fit jacket in linen blend twill in a shade of coral pink, which she coordinated with the Tefika tapered-fit trousers in linen-blend twill. The single-breasted blazer features side hip pockets and an angular lapel with long sleeves. Her trousers also included a tapered tailoring element, with ease of movement and softness for the summertime temperatures. Beneath the blazer of her power suit, Queen Letizia wore a white shirt with a rounded, scoop neckline.

As for other elements of the Spanish royal’s sartorial statement, Queen Letizia added a pair of Magrit brown pointed-toe leather pumps with a slight kitten heel. Accessories to Queen Letizia’s look included a pair of gold hoop earrings courtesy of Nydia Jewelry. She also carried a pleated leather clutch by Adolfo Dominguez.

Power suiting moments are a consistent element of Queen Letizia’s style. The Spanish royal, whose tenure as queen consort to King Felipe VI began in June 2014, often styles suits for daytime occasions. It’s a trend many of Europe’s royal women gravitate toward, including Kate Middleton, who’s styled suits by Roland Mouret and Burberry, among other designers.

Power suiting and tailored looks for women are a trend that’s also gone beyond the scope of royalty. WWD’s Hikmat Mohammed reported on the rise of women’s tailoring in August 2024, citing the emphasis on changing cultural dynamics.

“This renewed focus on women’s tailoring aligns with broader cultural shifts toward sustainability, individuality and the rejection of fast fashion,” said Hannah Bond, the womenswear representative for 203-year-old London-based bespoke tailor Norton & Sons’. “As more women ascend to leadership roles and seek professional attire that embodies confidence and style, the demand for high-quality, tailor-made clothing has grown.”
