I guess you are referring to the
peineta. At the Pope's funeral, Queen Sofia wore a
mantilla (i.e. a little mantle) with a
peineta (that high thing that is on top of the head).
Elena used a more conventional veil (covering the face of the bride), while Cristina chose to be a bit more "modern", letting her face visible. I also remember that Jaime Penafiel (yeah, this guy is tiring...) criticised Cristina's gown, for showing her shoulders... But I particularly liked much more Cristina's gown and mantilla
