Princess Kate and Queen Letizia trade their summer wardrobes for chic business looks
Kate, Princess of Wales and Queen Letizia of Spain have welcomed the new season by trading their long, flowing dresses with smart tailoring. The European royals were spotted donning smart black and grey co-ords just this week after months of debuting colourful gowns during the heat of summer.
Kate, Princess of Wales and Letizia, Queen of Spain have debuted a similar look since returning to royal duties after summer.
Kate and Letizia are often comparable when it comes to their fashion choices, and both royals seem to have traded their effortless summer gowns for smarter tailored looks this autumn.
The pair have been spotted in jackets, long-sleeve tops, and trousers as of late, after months of donning brightly coloured chiffon, linen and silk ensembles.
It’s not the first time the royal women have pioneered the latest fashion trends. Earlier this year, both Kate and Letizia were spotted wearing striking pink power suits complete with smart tailoring.
Their inspired sartorial style is noticeable in their mutual love for straight-leg and cigarette-style trousers, and long-line, double-breasted blazers.
Both royals are fans of the tonal look too, often spotted in coordinating shades no matter whether they’re wearing trousers, skirts, jackets, dresses, or even regal gowns.
Queen Letizia and Princess Kate recently stepped out in similar textured grey blazers and smart black trousers.
While attending the opening of the Professional Training Course, the Spanish royal wore the Long Jacket with Gold Buttons by Massimo Dutti (£145).
She teamed the statement garment with black leather slingback pumps by the same designer and a pair of Chanel Comete Earrings, which retail for a staggering €6,800 (£5,841).
Earlier today, Kate donned a very similar outfit while in Hereford, wearing a double-breasted houndstooth tweed blazer by the fashion atelier Maje Paris (£379).
She teamed the garment with tight-fitting black trousers just like Queen Letizia and finished the look with some chunky ankle boots by the designer, See By Chloe (£358).
Princess Kate stepped out for one of her first engagements since the summer wearing a chic two-piece suit from Alexander McQueen, which she combined with a blue top and the Gianvito 105’ Navy Suede Pumps.
To add to her new look, the 42-year-old also debuted a new hairstyle – one with more volume, waves and “mermaid” bangs to frame her face.
Just days ago, Letizia stepped out in a three-quarter-length striped sweater and navy trousers at the official inauguration of the opening of the 2023/2024 school year.
She donned the Hugo Boss slim-fit Virgin Wool Sweater with navy Stripes (£88) along with matching “Safashy 1” trousers by the same designer.
The look marked the start of her transitional autumn wardrobe.
The Spanish Queen’s olive green dress was just one iconic fashion moment she had this summer.
It was matched by Kate’s gorgeous forest-green midi dress which perfectly hugged her slim figure at the Wimbledon 2023 men’s final.
Throughout the summer, both Kate and Letizia donned a range of memorable looks, including pops of pastel shades.
Some of the most notable styles include Kate’s lime-green Wimbledon outfit, which comprised a pleated skirt and tailored top.
Letizia also branched out with her style this summer, wearing a number of pure white dresses – many of which were made from a broderie fabric.

Princess Kate’s Alexander McQueen dress which she wore for Ascot was perhaps the most standout summer style donned by the royal, and a far cry from her muted grey outfit worn today.
Letizia also turned heads in a halterneck number and sparkly silver sandals, which perfectly suited the hot weather in Spain.
