Between Harriet Sterling's designer wedding gown and Queen Letizia's day out in Spain, white was the dress colour of choice over the weekend.
Letizia joined her husband, King Felipe VI, and their two daughters, Leonor and Sofia, in Madrid on Saturday 6 June to welcome Pope Leo XIV for a historic visit to Spain – and she looked immaculate for the special occasion in a lace dress from luxury Spanish label, The 2nd Skin Co, as identified by Royal Fashion Police on Instagram.
The royal was the picture of elegance in a long-sleeved Guipure dress with a statement belt at the waist for a cinched look. Letizia paired her designer gown, which could easily make for a makeshift modern-style wedding dress, with timeless white slingback heels from Spanish footwear brand, Magrit. Many brides opt for similar modern silhouettes these days, including midi-length styles.

A sustainable Queen
The royal wore the same dress during a state visit to Egypt in September 2025.

Letizia and Felipe were in Egypt for a four-day state visit, which kicked off in Cairo, from 16 to 19 September.
A second white dress
