Princess Leonor of Spain and Queen Letizia are increasingly sharing high street brands, tailoring choices and wardrobe items as the young heir expands her official royal duties.
The 20-year-old heir to the Spanish throne and her mother, who has spent over two decades in the Spanish Royal Family, balance shared fashion elements with individual generational choices during official engagements and casual public outings.
Tuxedos at the Princess of Girona Awards
In July 2025, during the Princess of Girona Awards, mother and daughter demonstrated their stylistic connection by attending in dark tuxedos. Queen Letizia wore a black Mango tuxedo with satin details on the jacket and palazzo trousers, an outfit she had previously worn. Princess Leonor debuted a dark blue jacquard suit from Bleis Madrid featuring a subtle shine, a masculine-cut jacket and straight trousers.
Both paired their suits with a black top and black shoes. Princess Leonor added diamond earrings borrowed from her mother's jewellery box.
High Street Style and Summer Espadrilles
The shared aesthetic between the two royals extends to informal summer outings in Palma de Mallorca. In August 2022, Princess Leonor and Queen Letizia stepped out in short printed Zara dresses accompanied by wedge espadrilles tied at the ankle. Princess Leonor selected a blue dress featuring paisley motifs, while Queen Letizia wore a pink shirt dress with an ethnic pattern.
Shared Fashion Brands and Tailoring Choices
Both royals frequently wear designs from label staples including Hugo Boss, Carolina Herrera, Mango, Zara and El Corte Inglés, though each selects distinct cuts and stylings. German fashion house Hugo Boss has long been a fixture in Queen Letizia's wardrobe. In October 2025 in Oviedo, Princess Leonor wore a navy blue three-piece pinstripe suit from the brand featuring a broader cut, paired with ballerina flats. That design contrasted with a coral Hugo Boss suit worn earlier by Queen Letizia, which featured a fitted silhouette, a white top and low-heeled slingback pumps.
For her first official foreign trip as heir in July 2024, Princess Leonor selected a red double-breasted suit with matching trousers by Carolina Herrera. Queen Letizia owns a raspberry suit from the same label featuring a fitted blazer and straight trousers. Princess Leonor styled hers with a white top, while Queen Letizia selected a nude top, and both completed their looks with heels in similar shades.
Spanish brand Mango also highlights their differing approaches. During a 2024 visit to sculptor Jaume Plensa's workshop, Princess Leonor wore white Mango trousers with a Roberto Verino blouse and espadrilles. Months later, Queen Letizia wore a grey Mango suit with flared trousers, a black lace top and loafers.
Department store chain El Corte Inglés features in both wardrobes through tailor-inspired blue outfits selected two years apart. In 2024, Queen Letizia wore an electric blue linen and viscose suit from Woman Limited comprising a blazer and straight trousers, paired with a white lingerie top and sneakers. In 2026, Princess Leonor selected a powder blue set from Easy Wear featuring a vest tied at the waist, wide trousers and wedge espadrilles.
Direct Wardrobe Swaps and Shared Accessories
Beyond shared brands, Princess Leonor and Queen Letizia regularly lend garments and accessories to one another. At the 2023 Marivent reception, Queen Letizia debuted a blue and white printed Desigual x Stella Jean dress featuring a Bardot neckline and a full skirt, styling it with white espadrilles and a ponytail. Two years later, Princess Leonor wore the same dress for her first appearance at the Marivent reception, pairing it with navy blue espadrilles and a ponytail. In the summer of 2026, Infanta Sofía also wore the shared dress.
Clothes sharing works both ways between the royals. In June 2022, Princess Leonor debuted a white shirt dress with red and green geometric prints from Dándara during a family outing to Teatros del Canal. A month later, Queen Letizia wore the same dress to a work meeting at UNICEF headquarters, with both styling it with espadrilles.
In 2022, both royals wore the same white embroidered puff-sleeve blouse from & Other Stories. Princess Leonor wore it to a youth and cybersecurity session at IES Julio Verne in Leganés, paired with pastel pink jeans and white sneakers. In September 2022, Queen Letizia wore the blouse with white dress trousers and heeled sandals.
Accessories are also exchanged across generations. For the Opening of the XV Legislature in November 2023, Princess Leonor paired her green Adolfo Domínguez dress with Queen Letizia's camel coat and Doma Insignia handbag, both by Carolina Herrera, alongside Gold&Roses earrings. Queen Letizia had previously worn the coat in Germany in 2022 and the handbag during a state visit to Sweden in 2021.
Tweed, White Suits and Symbolic Parallels
Comparisons between their styles highlight generational differences alongside maternal influence rather than deliberate copying. In April 2024, Queen Letizia debuted a bespoke grey tweed midi dress with three-quarter sleeves and frayed details. In October 2024, Princess Leonor wore a short Maje tweed dress featuring a pleated skirt, black trim, opaque tights and low heels for the Princess of Asturias Awards audiences.
White suiting holds symbolic value for both royals. Queen Letizia wore a white Giorgio Armani suit to announce her engagement to King Felipe VI in November 2003 and debuted another white suit by Carolina Herrera in 2018. On her 18th birthday, Princess Leonor wore a white double-breasted suit crafted by Sastrería Serna to swear in the Constitution, paired with white Lodi heels.
Pink shirt dresses also draw stylistic parallels. In 2021, Queen Letizia debuted a pink midi Hugo Boss shirt dress with a fitted waist and ruffled skirt. In October 2023, Princess Leonor wore a pink Simorra midi dress with a marked waist and gathered skirt details for pre-award audiences, featuring semi-transparent embroidered floral fabric and puff sleeves.
Casual Denim and Summer Palette Differences
When strict institutional protocol relaxes, differences between their personal tastes become more evident. During a 2025 visit to Valdesoto, named Exemplary Town of Asturias, both chose dark denim as a starting point. Princess Leonor wore a denim jumpsuit with a brown suede jacket and heeled ankle boots, while Queen Letizia wore Mango jeans with a navy knit cardigan from Sézane, flat loafers and a trench coat.
Summer choices in Mallorca further illustrate their personal styles. In 2022 in Valldemossa, Queen Letizia paired a green top with a white ikat print midi skirt designed by Pablo Erroz, flat espadrilles and a Whittelily basket bag. Three years later during a cinema outing in Palma, Princess Leonor wore a white crochet top from Mango, green wide-leg trousers from Rivera, flat shoes and a Whittelily handbag.
