  • Society Why you're never thin enough (or the opposite) and why everyone has to have an opinion about it

On September 15, Queen Letizia turns 50, the perfect time to analyze what the main keys to her wardrobe are.

After almost

19 years in office

, her style has been evolving along with her, adapting to her duties within the Monarchy and, why not, wearing a figure that she rigorously sculpts.

Thus, we see her elegant dresses, but her tight ones;

her legs, with a miniskirt if she wants;

and even her muscular arms, although many find them grinding...

What is clear is that whatever you wear, it becomes a

trend

and if a garment comes from a fashion chain, it disappears from the hangers almost immediately.

These are the keys to her style, discreet but with winks always in the fashion of the moment:

Brand Spain

gtres

Felipe Varela

has been the architect of many of her most remembered looks, many in red, with which she has clearly felt favored.

However, the Queen has not closed doors, and she has resorted to other firms to brand Spain, such as Delpozo or Lorenzo Caprile.

Although not only of great designers lives the Queen.

Not much less.

An example of her idyll with street fashion is Inditex: the Queen has worn numerous looks from

Zara

,

Uterqüe

and

Massimo Dutti

, to the point that she is a luxury ambassador for the Ortega house.

Less is more

gtres

Follow the trends, but always with a personal filter.

Thus, she prefers

discretion and minimalism

over ornate or very striking looks.

This simplicity translates into examples such as the one in the image, where Doña Letizia wears a black and white dress by Mango that starred in a curious anecdote: at an awards ceremony one of the recipients wore exactly the same model.

Care in gala dresses

Doña Letizia leaves simplicity for the day but at night or on occasions when gala etiquette is required, she does the rest.

On these dates, her looks always impress, with incredible jewelry and long dresses full of sophistication and details like this one, which she wore last May at a gala offered in honor of the emir of

Qatar

.

Designed by

Gabriel Lage,

it caused admiration for its flared sleeves and embroidery, reminiscent of the outfits of the emirates.

The Queen completed the look with some wonderful

diamond earrings.

The heels (or high heels)

gtres

It is rare to see Doña Letizia flat on the road.

Now in summer, she has popularized

espadrilles

and usually wears various models of wedges each season.

So well known is her affiliation with them that even, Jill Biden, the first lady of the United States, says she bought a pair of Castañers following her recommendation during the last NATO summit held in Madrid.

But the most frequent thing is to see Doña Letizia climb in relentless

stilettos

, with high heels that are proof of the most resistant.

It is already known that as much as some women say that they are comfortable, the reality is that walking with them for hours is killer for the feet.

In fact, the Queen suffers from chronic

metatarsalgia

, a condition that causes the nerves located between the metatarsal bones of her feet to become pressed and for which it is recommended not to wear very high heels.

Gray hair (and other daring trends)

gtres

Natural hair is another of the trends that the Queen has embraced, unthinkable a few decades ago, when gray hair on a woman was associated with carelessness and carelessness.

Doña Letizia thus joins the list of well-known females who choose to show off her whitish hair without dissimulation, making a virtue of the supposed defect.

Andie MacDowell, Ángela Molina and Carolina de Mónaco

are some who, like her, do not limit this trend to short hair and wear it in their hair, which was less common.

And the same can be said of other looks with which he

has taken risks

, often limited to the strict margins of youth.

This summer, for example, the Queen has dared with the miniskirt, leaving visible brown and shapely legs, and with the

cut-out

, showing abs worked in the gym.
