HM the Queen has contributed a magnificent "touch of class" in Cuba from the moment when, getting off the plane's ladder, she put her shoe in the fuchsia tone of Carolina Herrera on the island.

It didn't matter that his wardrobe was almost all repeated since the islanders didn't know him; It did not matter that very commercial and predominant brands predominated, the important thing was the image that transmitted discretion, neatness and very royal freshness.

The dressing room of the visit has been very well chosen since it was not about epatar the locals with a waste of "glitz" as it can happen in other state visits in which Doña Letizia must compete with first ladies who drip glamor like Juliana Awada or royal cousins ​​from Europe like the queens Máxima or Matilde.

Hugo Boss's shirt dress , Herrera's polka dot dress that brought José Martí for the floral offering and the flying skirt white, from Herrera also, to visit the Gaspar Melchor de Jovellanos workshop school, were of a very appropriate discrete elegance for a troubled eternally tropical city. And the red halter-neck model, one of those "enigma dresses" whose authorship is unknown despite the much vaunted transparency since it was released this summer, gave a discreetly festive touch.

The only downside I find in a model costume are those mules of Steve Madden who wear a transparent strip of what in my childhood was called Plexiglas, which should give a frightening heat.

I am sure that both the King and his consort would have loved to know Havana in other circumstances, not in an awkward state visit imposed by a functioning Government. The decadent city of "Papa" Hemingway or Graham Greene where Jean Simmons sang to Marlon Brando who had the eyes of a man in love.
