Good idea, Micas, Infanta Elena has indeed improved her style, after marrying Jaime, who is a well-known habitué of the Parisian fashion-shows and a man with a very refined sense of style. In fact he was the responsible for the transformation of Infanta Elena and he is even said to pick himself the clothes for his wife. Definitely a useful image consultant indoors, even though sometimes a bit extravagant (... like his famous mantle...).

In order to give some order and criteria to this thread, what do you think about posting photos of the clothes with some comment or information about it, namely the date when she first used it, and preferentially the name of the designer who signed those pieces? (of course if you have a source to back on)

1) May 2004 - at Felipe's wedding, by Christian Lacroix.
This dress evokes the bullfigther suits.

2) May 2004 - at F&L pre-wedding dinner, by Lorenzo Caprile (press also gives the name of Christian Lacroix, but it is almost sure by Caprile)
On special occasions like this, Elena likes to emphasize the Spanish looks, as this typical redecilla goyesca, to hold her hair.

3) May 2004 - at Fred and Mary wedding ceremony, by Christian Lacroix.
For this occasion, Infanta Elena chose a pink top coat with red borders and a white dress, with red gloves, brooches, necklace and tiara. The shoes and purse had the same colour as the coat.

4) October 1997 - at Cristina & Iñaki wedding, by Christian Lacroix.

5, 6) June 2001 - at the christening of Pavlos' son Achileas Andreas. By Christian Dior:

7) October 1997 - Cristina and Iñaki pre-wedding dinner. By Lorenzo Caprile.

A fantastic black dress from Valentino used for a prewedding dinner for Alexia of Greece in Britain, One of my favourite looks for her ever. The red stole looks smashing with the dress IMO and I dont even like stoles.

This is perhaps my most favorite outfit from her. I love the baby blue color of the suit and the design, very elegant and chic. And of course she wears the mose interesting 'hoses.

From 2004. I belive it was a dinner for the president from Latvia. The dress is from Oscar de la Renta's spring 2004 line.
