A very royal couple
King Felipe and Queen Letizia look very regal in their gala attire in this beautiful image of the royal couple. The Queen of Spain wore a stunning fuchsia dress by Carolina Herrera with embroidered white flowers detailing and King Felipe showcased his General Captain of the Army uniform.
King Felipe’s medals
In the pictures we get a great view of the King’s medals as well as the collar of the distinguised Order of the Golden Fleece.
Royal jewels with a special meaning
Queen Letizia chose a stunning Fleur de Lys tiara for the occasion, a beautiful jewel that displays the royal family’s emblem. She also wore the Cartier diamond earrings and twin bracelets that once belonged to Queen Victoria Eugenia, the King’s great-grandmother.
A modern family
Posing with daughers 14-year-old Leonor and 12-year-old Sofia, and dressed in a more casual attire, the Spanish royals look picture perfect. King Felipe added a touch of color to his smart suit with a green tie, whereas Queen Letizia once again opted for Carolina Herrera, choosing a flattering red long-sleeved dress.
A model royal couple
Interestingly, Queen Letizia chose the exact same Carolina Herrera dress, this time in a dark blue for the other set of official portraits.
The future of the Crown
Princess Leonor, the heir to the throne, looks absolutely stunning in the new images. Dressed in a pale pink dress, the picture appears to have been taken last October, when she wore a very similar outfit for Spain’s Armed Forces Day.
The youngest of the family
This is the first official portrait of Leonor’s little sister, 12-year-old Sofia and she looks perfect for her debut in a pretty blue tweed dress.
Sisters and best friends
This collection of images include a beautiful portrait of both sisters together, Sofia slightly behind Leonor, looking absolutely adorable under a soft natural light, one of the signatures of photographer Estela de Castro.
