the princess of wales she wants to be like the queen of Spain. Kate Middleton looks at Joy and no longer hides it; it could even be said to encourage commentary. The hanger for this story is the very chic outfit chosen this polka-dot Monday to attend an act of great public importance in which the wife of the future King of England clearly imitated the Asturian style with her dress, but in reality there are many more clues than lead to the same conclusion. Letizia Ortiz is not a bad example to become consort of a head of state. And we are not just referring to the style of clothing.
Let’s start by noting what the entire world press has observed since this Monday, for the celebration of Garter Day: the Princess of Wales wore a look very similar to the one that Doña Letizia wore for that same act in 2019 and to top it off we see a wink to Spain as indisputable as polka dots, an inclination that the British princess has already shown.
The woman who is destined to succeed Camilla Parker-Bowles As Queen of England, she wears a model with a white background with black polka dots, short and headdress (protocol requires). It is a design with a high neckline, marked cuffs, sash-type waist and midi length signed by Alessandra Rich.
The model that Doña Letizia exhibited in London exactly four years ago, and also in the Garter, was a dress by the Sevillian firm Cherubina, made of a twill fabric, with puffed sleeves with a lantern cup and buttoned cuffs, a Perkins-type collar finished in its left side by small covered buttons. But it is also that she Letizia wore a sash like the one that Kate Middleton wore this Monday.
Our kings and queen traveled to London in 2019 so that Felipe VI was knighted by Elizabeth II, as was Guillermo Alejandro of the Netherlands. For this reason, Letizia and Queen Máxima of the Netherlands coincided, in addition to Kate, then Duchess of Cambridge.
On that occasion Letizia Ortiz chose a diadem also from Cherubina, made of buntal with a side ornament with a feather peony, topped by other goose feathers and mesh. Kate wore a saucer-type headdress, also with feathers and polka dot details to match her dress. As we can see, Kate’s looks this Monday and Letizia’s in 2019 are very similar. But it is that the princess of Wales wore another extraordinarily similar model at Ascot last year, also Alessandra Rich.
Commoners, daughters of professionals and eldest daughters of three brothers
It is not surprising that Kate looks at Letizia, nine years older and a good example to follow. Catalina (Catherine Elizabeth Middleton; Reading, Berkshire, January 9, 1982) is destined to be the next queen consort of the United Kingdom and the other fourteen kingdoms; and it will be when Guillermo assumes the crown, as his father, King Carlos III, 74, has just done.
Catalina is of origins as commoner as Letizia. She grew up in Chapel Row, a town near Newbury, Berkshire, England. She studied Art History in Scotland, at the University of St. Andrews (where she met Prince William, in 2001) and her commitment to causes such as charity, children and addictions or art are well known. Like our queen, she has often shown her concern to encourage people to come forward with her mental health issues, and even ran a mental health awareness campaign with her husband, Heads Together in April 2016.
Kate is like Letizia, the daughter of two professionals. If our queen is the daughter of a nurse and a journalist, the mother of the Princess of Wales is Carole Elizabeth Goldsmith, who was a stewardess, and her father is Michael Francis Middleton, a flight agent. Kate is, like Letizia, the eldest of three siblings, Philippa Charlotte and James William. Another thing is that she becomes queen. Letizia already hurt it just nine years ago, at the age that she is now Kate Middleton.
