Whether for the sake of economy or ecological awareness, it is not uncommon to see her wearing the same pieces on several occasions, even going so far as to recycle clothing from brands – Spanish of course – for the general public such as Zara.
Recently, a look by Letizia has particularly caught the eye: on March 3, while taking part in the ceremony of the “Subsidies of the Mutua Madrilena Foundation for social projects”, the queen wore a traditional Ukrainian blouse (see slideshow). A piece of clothing that leaves little doubt as to its position on the conflict that has pitted Ukraine against Vladimir Putin’s Russian troops for two weeks now…
