How to Shop Queen Letizia’s Best Summer 2026 Outfits

3 min read

While Kate Middleton and Meghan Markle may have enviable summer wardrobes, some of the best warm-weather royal style consistently comes courtesy of Queen Letizia of Spain. Her seasonal style strikes the perfect balance between polished and effortless, with breezy dresses, tailored separates, and plenty of espadrilles in the mix. Better yet, many of her summer 2026 outfits are surprisingly easy to recreate. Here, how to shop nine of Queen Letizia’s best looks of the past season:

At both the World Cup and the royal reception for the winning team, Queen Letizia displayed her patriotism in solid red dresses from Adolfo Dominguez. Red, particularly the “tomato red” shade remains very on trend this summer, and the Spanish queen demonstrates how the color can serve as a neutral in any wardrobe.
