But Queen Sopfia did not bring one of her bigger tiaras to the Netherlands like she did to Belgium and Japan (Fleur de Lys tiara) or to Norway (loop diamond and pearl tiara).

You can never count on such rules. For the State Visit to the Kingdom of Denmark Queen Beatrix once wore one of her smallest diadems. It seems dependent on what the wearer likes best at that moment.

If you don't have helmet hairdos like Sofia, Beatrix or Silvia, it's difficult to wear these huge tiaras. Letizia needs a hair dresser who works for period movies or theatre, who can deal with this challenge

I would not say Silvia has a helmet hairdoo. But of course her hairdresser knows exactly what to do when she is wearing the big swedish tiaras. Perhaps Letizia's hairdresser can get tips from him.

Let's not forget that Letizia's tiara hair-dos have improved greatly over the last few years. Do you all remember the loose curls she used to wear with tiaras for some years? If she continues the way she does, she'll work out how to show off the bigger tiaras as well. (But I wouldn't mind a Spanish State Visit to Sweden, where the two Queen's hairdressers can have a looooong chat  )

They didn't coordinate well, that's for sure. To me the First Lady looks overdressed in a long gown (that looks like a nightgown by the way) and Letizia's frock is too short.

She wasn't a queen consort back then though.

True. But at the beginning of her marriage she also had great updos for tiara Events and then at some point she stoped with them and wore her hair most of the time loose and now she is back to updos. My point is that you don't need a big puffy hairstyle a la Queen Beatrix or Queen Sofia to wear the bigger tiaras.

Unless the tiara is bigger than your head.

Also the guests are dressed weird 
But I kind of like this 80s glam look on Letizia.
