Queen Letizia wore a denim dress in 2021

It is a rarity for Queen Letizia to wear denim. In fact, the royal has only worn a denim dress on a handful of royal engagements. 

In 2021, the mother of two attended the 50th anniversary of the creation of the UCM Faculty of Information Sciences in a denim dress with utility pockets and rolled sleeves styled once again with red accessories - a skinny belt and snakeskin heels.
