Princess Leonor concluded the series of commemorative events for her father, King Felipe’s tenth anniversary of reign, with an outfit that sparked controversy.
In the morning, Leonor had made a favorable impression with an elegant red suit, but her choice of attire for the evening event generated divided opinions.
Her sequined lingerie-style outfit, considered daring by some, contrasted with the red suit she wore during the morning activities, leading to diverse comments in the press and on social media.
Despite the adverse remarks, Princess Leonor and Infanta Sofia played a prominent role in guiding a visit to the Royal Collections Gallery, accompanying a group of young people aged 17 to 21, demonstrating their commitment to royal responsibilities.
Princess Leonor’s Dress Sfera
Princess Leonor surprised with a notably different style from her usual attire. For the occasion, she opted for an affordable ensemble from the latest Sfera collection, consisting of a bold lace-trimmed top and a matching midi skirt.
Both pieces featured metallic black flower details, creating a harmonious contrast with the bluish-gray tone of the outfit and the black embroidery along the edges. Surprisingly, the price of the ensemble was around $40.
She complemented her outfit with elegant open-toe heels from Carolina Herrera and a sophisticated Burberry handbag.
The princess chose to wear her hair loose in soft waves, highlighting a darker shade than her usual blonde, with subtle highlights illuminating her face.
While the Spanish press praised her appearance, there were divided opinions on social media. Some suggested that the princess should seek wardrobe advice, while others commented that she appeared older than her age or that the overall outfit was not entirely flattering.
Nevertheless, there were also those who defended and praised Princess Leonor’s style.
- “To me it looks more like a camisole and slip intimate wear. I’m not sure I find it a good choice for the functions she attended.”
- “Leonor is a stunning young woman but I don’t like this outfit. It’s shapeless and looks like lingerie.”
- “I like it but the upper part doesn’t fit well, love the skirt”.
- “Something about this outfit is giving Mary Kate and Ashely circa 99/00 and I kinda love it”.
- “I love when these girls dress in more youthful styles”.
