the elegance that crosses borders

The queen sofia He traveled to the French capital this Friday on behalf of the Spanish Royal Family with a very special mission: to attend the gala commemorating the 150th anniversary of the inauguration of the Palais Garnier, the historic headquarters of the Paris National Opera. An appointment for which she has dressed herself in a magnificent klein blue dress signed by Alejandro de Miguel, who already dressed her for the wedding of her niece, Princess Teodora of Greece, last September. The design, buttoned at the back, featured elegant sequin and crystal embroidery that created a luminous and radiant effect on the front and cuffs.

Felipe VI’s mother has combined her design with a clutch and gold shoes, but the most striking thing was the jewelry: a two-color pearl necklace with matching earrings and a beautiful flower-shaped brooch.

This is the second official trip of the emerita to the neighboring country in just over a year, after her visit to the headquarters of the Olympic Games last summer. Passionate about classical music, Mrs. Sofía enjoyed a unique concert during the evening performed by the baritone Ludovic Tezier, the soprano Lisette Oropesa, the mezzo-soprano Lea Desandre and the tenor Juan Diego Flórez, together with the Orchestra and the Opera Choir from Paris Les Étoiles. The show also featured the first dancers from the Paris Opera Ballet Corps, resident artists at the Academy and students from the Paris Opera Ballet School.

The wife of Juan Carlos I was received at the Parisian venue by the president of the Paris Opera, Alexander Neef, by the director of the ballet of that same institution, the Spanish José Carlos Martínez, and the ambassador of Spain in France, Victorio Redondo Baldrich. The gala, whose guest list has not been published, was also attended by personalities such as the director general of UNESCO, Audrey Azoulay.
