The state visit of King Felipe and Queen Letizia to Egypt has been filled with images that seem straight out of a postcard. From the very beginning, with the official farewell in Barajas, it was clear that this visit would have a special atmosphere.
The significance was diplomatic, but Queen Letizia also knew that all eyes would be on her and her outfits.
The first, a black midi dress with a Bardot neckline and matching heels, set the tone for the tour with its understated elegance.
One of the moments that garnered the most headlines was when the Queen appeared in a white design by The 2nd Skin, which the international press dubbed the “Egyptian bride” look.
The choice had a theatrical touch, almost like a nod to the aesthetics of the host country.
The night in Giza was another one of those memorable moments. Felipe and Letizia, posing in front of the illuminated pyramids alongside their hosts, seemed to be part of a historical narrative.
She wore a long-sleeved Klein blue dress designed by Joseph, paired with silver stilettos, which gave her a majestic air in an already imposing setting.
And as a finishing touch, the most intimate side of the Kings was not overlooked. The viral selfie at the Temple of Hatshepsut showed them as complicit, almost like fascinated tourists.
Even on their last day, with coordinated safari-inspired outfits, they managed to convey that blend of modernity and naturalness that is so appealing.
If this trip made one thing clear, it’s that Egypt will be associated with a series of iconic scenes in the Spanish monarchy’s album.
