Felipe VI, “the best-dressed king in Europe” according to The Telegraph: “Carlos and Guillermo are doing it wrong”

Since the Wimbledon final, held last Sunday July 16 with the historic victory of Carlos Alcaraz, the King Felipe VI grabs headlines for his good taste when choosing a suit. Praised by the international press, British newspapers continue to praise the Spanish monarch.

So much so that The Telegraph wrote this weekend: “Philip VI, the best dressed king in Europe and what King Charles and Prince William are doing wrong.” They say that comparisons are hateful, but the truth is that Queen Letizia’s husband beats the British royals by a landslide in style, according to this prestigious media.

In said article, they also write: “There is a reason why Anna Wintour [editora de Vogue] he loves going to Wimbledon. The style. Ah, the style. Amidst an elegant, linen and cotton melee, it was King Felipe VI of Spain who stole the show when he attended the men’s final to see his compatriot Carlos Alcaraz storm center court.”

In the stands, it must be remembered that the king coincided with stars such as Brad Pitt, Hugh Jackman and Ariana Grande. Also with William of England himself and Kate Middleton, the one in charge of delivering the trophy to the Murcian champion. But, judging by international publications, none of them managed to outshine him. The making of his suits, which in their day were designed by the late Jaime Gallo, has been highly applauded. The suit he chose for the Wimbledon final bore the Mirto signature stamp, according to The Spanish.

“Very rare to see this level of tailoring today, even on the rich,” renowned fashion journalist Derek Guy also wrote in a fashion thread that quickly went viral. In the French version of Vanity FairIn addition, they defined the son of Don Juan Carlos and Doña Sofía as “the most chic of the crowned”.
