When Queen Letizia of Spain attended the Spanish Royal Family's annual New Year's reception, she borrowed a dress from her mother-in-law, Sophie, from her wardrobe.
This 45-year-old Valentino haute couture dress is so well preserved that it doesn't look like an old dress at all.
Queen letizia of Spain
This Valentino set consists of a pink top and a green and satin skirt with translucent sleeves and decorated with delicate rose-embroidered flowers.
Letizia paired the skirt with Tous's rubies and emerald earrings, and the color of the accessories matched the skirt.
Sophie Asia Pacific after 1977
It's hard to believe that this dress is actually a 1977 style, 45 years ago, the skirt fabric is still very shiny, the color is also very bright.
Compared with letizia and Sophia's wear, I found that the sleeves of the skirt were slightly different, the sleeves of the skirt worn by Sophie Asia Pacific were more transparent, and Queen Letizia should have modified the skirt before wearing it.
Letizia and Sofia have the same dress in contrast
The pink belt at the waist of the skirt can be adjusted, and it should be a long pink belt.
Letizia wrapped the strap around her waist 4 times, while Sophia wrapped the belt around 3 times and tied a bow. I prefer the way Sophie wears after Asia Pacific.
This is not the first time that Queen Letizia of Spain has borrowed clothes from her mother-in-law Sophie Asia-Pacific, this is already the fourth time.
Queen letizia of Spain is dressed in embroidered dresses
In 2021, at a palace dinner hosted by the President of Chile, Queen Letizia turned over the embroidered dress that her mother-in-law Sofia wore 40 years ago. This dress is a short-sleeved dress in nude pink with flowers on top.
Letizia matched the skirt with a slender silver belt to accentuate her slender silhouette. The nude heels on the feet are particularly leg-length and do not distract.
Letizia and Sofia wear the same embroidered skirt in contrast
This dress was worn by Sophie Asia-Pacific when she visited Rome in 1981, and the skirt has not faded at all, and the embroidered details are still intact.
Queen Letizia of Spain in red dress
The most famous dress that Queen Letizia borrowed from her mother-in-law Sophia's wardrobe was this red dress. Letizia wore the dress originally to break the rumors of discord between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.
Letizia and Sofia wear the same red dress in contrast
Comparing the two generations of queens wearing the same dress, I found that Letizia was more inclined to the simple style of matching, and she did not wear necklaces, bracelets and belts like her mother-in-law Sophia.
Letizia's collocation does not have the elegance and nobility of her mother-in-law Sophia, but it is more in line with modern aesthetics.
Letizia and Sofia contrast the same striped skirt
Letizia borrowed not only her mother-in-law's clothes in public, but also private parties, and at the old king's 80th birthday feast, she wore the red and blue striped skirt that her mother-in-law wore in November 1984, with red high boots.
It turns out that between the two generations of European royal families, not only will jewelry be passed on, but even clothes can be passed on, and this old clothes are not only environmentally friendly, but also beneficial to promote feelings.
