Queen Letizia’s style is modern and always elegant. Many fans therefore take her as a fashion role model – and her looks are even imitated from within their own family ranks. Or can Victoria Federica’s recent fashion twin moment be taken with Letizia as a tip?

Victoria Federica de Marichalar y de Borbón, 22, as the niece of King Felipe, 55, and therefore part of the Spanish royal family, is a welcome guest at many events and fashion shows. The 22-year-old always relies on extravagant looks, for which she lets her fans celebrate her on Instagram. However, the influencer’s latest look receives media attention due to another fact: Victoria wears a dress in which her aunt Queen Letizia was previously photographed. Of course, direct “Who looks better?” comparisons are inevitable.

Queen Letizia: Not a good relationship with her niece Victoria

Now one could assume that Victoria found a fashion inspiration in her aunt. But recently, negative headlines have been circulating about the unstable relationship between the Spanish relatives, which could put this fashion twin moment in a different light.

According to the news portal “Monarquía Confidencial”, King Felipe is said to have set a condition for this year’s summer vacation with his family. The Spanish leader is said to have expressed to his mother the wish that his family vacation should not coincide with the stay of his nephew Felipe Juan Froilán de Todos los Santos de Marichalar y Borbón, 23, and his niece Victoria Federica de Marichalar y de Borbón on the holiday island .

King Felipe: No summer vacation with his sisters

Due to a handful of scandals within the family, the relationship between the royal couple and Infanta Elena, 59, and Infanta Cristina, 58, is currently not the best, it is said. The king also wants to avoid a meeting with them, claims “Monarquía Confidencial”.

After negative headlines: is Victoria’s performance a subtle jab against Letizia?

Against this background, Victoria’s red carpet appearance at an opening can be interpreted as a subtle tip to her aunt and her family. Because while Letizia appeared in public in 2020 in the dress by Charo Ruiz Ibiza, Victoria now chooses the black version of the maxi dress with broderie anglaise and lace details for the evening event.
