Real Teatro de Retiro in Madrid hosted the fifth edition of the Retina ECO awards, an event focused on sustainability. The event has become one of the most relevant dates on the institutional calendar of the Royal Household. Queen Letizia was the main protagonist, both for her style and for the naturalness she showed.
The presence of the sovereign once again captured the attention of the media and the public. Every detail of her style was analyzed, from the suit to the accessories. However, it was not only fashion that caused comments, but also the way the queen interacted with those who were waiting for her at the event
A look that made a difference
Doña Letizia surprised by breaking with the tradition of wearing a dress at these awards. This time, she chose a white Mango suit consisting of a classic-cut jacket and flowing pants. The result was a sober and modern ensemble that sold out in just a few hours.
The jacket, with metallic buttons and front pockets, recalled the codes of the most refined tailoring. However, the fluidity of the pants added dynamism and reduced the rigidity of the outfit. This way, the Queen combined elegance with trend, once again showing her ability to set style.
The white monochrome conveyed serenity and freshness, qualities that fit perfectly with the theme of the event. With this gesture, Doña Letizia not only reinforced her institutional image but also her influence on Spanish fashion. A choice that shows balance between protocol and modernity.
Accessories with their own message
The most talked-about detail of her style was the bicolor Mary Jane shoes by Sézane. This model, reminiscent of the sixties, is one of the queen's favorites. This time, the black toe broke the monochrome of the outfit, adding a retro and sophisticated touch.
The choice of this footwear did not go unnoticed, as it reflects the sovereign's inclination for vintage trends. This is the fourth pair of this model she has added to her wardrobe this year, in different colors and styles. A decision that consolidates Letizia's commitment to reinterpreting classic fashion with a modern twist.
As for accessories, she opted for discretion. She carried a black Carolina Herrera bag and PDPAOLA earrings that added a subtle shine. The strategy was clear: keep the focus on the suit and the shoes, without overloading a look that was already powerful on its own.
A gesture that confirms her approachability
Beyond fashion, what really made headlines was the queen's attitude upon her arrival. Before entering the theater, she stopped to greet both journalists and admirers who were waiting for her. With a smile and a wave, she showed approachability and rapport.
That moment, seemingly simple, was interpreted as proof of Doña Letizia's renewing character. Many saw it as confirmation that the sovereign is an institutional figure close to the people. The naturalness with which she addressed those present reinforces the fresh image of the Crown.
Queen Letizia's gesture led social media to fill with positive comments. For many, it shows that the Royal Household is experiencing a different stage, more open and approachable. An attitude that, together with involvement in social and cultural issues, consolidates her role as a model of modernity.
