With a shared penchant for streamlined silhouettes and eye-catching colours, it's hardly surprising that Queen Letizia has been hailed as 'Spain's answer to Kate Middleton.'

Carrying out her latest diplomatic duties on Wednesday, Letizia was spotted heading to a meeting at the Royal Palace of La Granja of San Ildefonso and her outfit had major Kate Middleton vibes. 

Pictured alongside First Lady of the United States, Jill Biden, as part of the NATO Summit in Segovia, Queen Letizia debuted a brand new polka dot dress by Laura Bernal. Clearly, this royally-loved print is having a moment!

Queen Letizia looked pretty in polka dots on Wednesday

Looking lovely in lilac, the mum-of-two accessorised her outfit with cream espadrille wedges by Macarena Shoes, which also bore a similar resemblance to Duchess Kate's favourite wedges from Castañer. 

Adding a €930 beige handbag from Hedenbrand, Letizia topped off the look with pearl droplet earrings – coincidentally, another staple in Kate's wardrobe.

More recently, Kate was spotted attending the fourth day of Royal Ascot alongside her husband Prince William – and her beautiful white and black number by Alessandra Rich quickly made headlines. 

While Queen Letizia and Duchess Kate are huge fans of polka dots, they aren't the only royals who love the print. The Duchess of Sussex, the Countess of Wessex and Princess Beatrice are also fans, and Princess Diana famously rocked dotty designs throughout the 80s – this trend is here to stay.
