Princess Letizia's Eveningwear Part 1

[lis]

I love her dress, It is like a princess of the XVIII century. gorgeus

[Princejohnny25]

Im iffy on the dress. I LOVE the cut of the top and I like the puffy skirt but I dont think the colors are that great and dont bring out the radiant princess that she is. Her hair was beautiful though.

Letizia is so beautiful and dresses wonderfully but I'm not a fan of the dress. But her hair and tiara are absolutely beautiful! Does anybody know who designed her dress? Where did her sash disappear into to? The sash doesn't seem to go over her shoulder but slips into her dress? Has she worn that tiara before? Thanks to whoever answers my questions.:o :p :)

The designer is mentioned in the above post where the photo was placed. Regarding the tiara, yes, she's worn it to the gala offered to the Latvian president (see previous pages of this thread).

I think Letizia is the most elegant Crown Princess
She is always very well in gala and Evening Gowns...
She's very well in all ocasions :p

I like the top of her dress, but I think the skirt is horrible and old fashion.

In the photos, we can see Letizia's engagement suit, her pre-wedding dinner dress and also both pre-wedding concert and wedding ceremony in Denmark, as well as both the dresses she wore at the Gómez-Acebo's weddings.
Here's also a photo of the front door of the shop, in case you decide to go there... :p

Oh thank you so much for this! I'd love to go some day, just to look around. It must be very expensive, otherwise I'd love to buy the red one she work in Denmark!

She looks fab in the dress she wore for the banks dinner!!

Definitively she is the most elegant crown princess.

Thanks for posting the pictures, Elsa! Letizia looked gorgeous at the Mariano Cava's Jounalistic Awards. The color and cut look really good on her. The lacy part also adds a very pretty feminine touch to it. The skirt she wore in Luxembourg looks better with the white top she wore with it before. The black top weighs down the outfit IMO.

I believe this is the same lace jacket (and purse).

The purse if is the same but I believe that the jacket is not the same one

[RaniaRocks]

Yes indeed is rather hard to tell, one picture is yellow and the other one more silver, but regardless of the picture tones I just noticed a subtle difference on the lace patterns, specifically on the left side the pattern is more busy on the "yellow" picture. Is hard to tell, I was in the believe it was the same, since one time she wore it opened and the other don't somethings changes, the cut is exactly the same and the colors changes from one picture to another depending if it is paper, digital, the light etc, but the pattern have me wondering.

[ldt20]

If the jackets are different I'd not be surprised if they are by Felipe Varela. It seems to me like he usually makes very similar pieces for the Princess changing the colors or patterns a little bit.
