On Wednesday, Queen Letizia of Spain attended the Princesa de Girona Foundation 2023 awards at the Camiral Caldes de Malavella Hotel. For the prestigious occasion, the Spanish royal slipped into an unexpected look, yet didn’t miss a beat with her sartorial choice.
Queen Letizia made a case for luxurious high street in H&M’s 'Conscious Collection 2018 Black Midi Dress', which retailed for £119.99. The garment featured an elegant V-neckline, a flared skirt, a rich ebony hue, a satin finish, and a sleeveless design.
She topped off her evening attire with a pair of silver slingback pumps and a gold clutch bag by Magrit Shoes, accessorising with some affordable 'Baguette Jonica Creoles Earrings' by Pertegaz.

H&M released their ‘conscious’ collection in 2018 in a bid to curate a more ethical production chain. The Autumn/Winter 2018 collection was inspired by the home of 19th-century Swedish artists Karin and Carl Larsson, and showcased hyper-romantic designs, party-ready pieces and recycled fabric to minimize waste.
“A Queen wearing a dress cost less than $150 [fire emoji] this is the real Queen,” one fan gushed, while another said: “She is always flawless. She really understands what works for her and does classic with a twist.” A third agreed, noting: “She looks great in this dress. She is one of those people that can make an inexpensive dress look like it’s couture, at least in photos,” and a fourth mentioned: “This dress looks great on her and I love the metallic accessories.”

The royal's outfit consisted of a knit halter-neck top from Massimo Dutti teamed with Carolina Herrera white trousers and a pair of classic white espadrilles – as well as a pair of beautiful diamond mismatched earrings.

Once again, fans were enraptured by Letizia’s flawless style. “Casual chic to perfection,” one commented, as another said: “This is what a modern royal woman should wear.”
