On July 16, 2025, King Felipe and Queen Letizia, accompanied by Infanta Sofía, presided over the oath of allegiance to the Flag and the ceremony of awarding Royal Commissions and appointments to the new officers of the Spanish Navy. The ceremony took place at the Naval Academy in Marín. Princess Leonor received the Grand Cross of Naval Merit in recognition of the upcoming completion of her training at the Naval Military School.
These newly commissioned officers will take on command roles within the Navy's operational and support units — whether aboard ships or submarines, piloting fighter jets and helicopters of the Naval Aviation Flotilla. For the occasion, Queen Letizia wore a design by the Andalusian brand Vogana — a navy blue linen midi dress featuring a V-neckline and white fringe detailing. The dress is from the Spring-Summer 2024 collection.
I applaud Vogana for originality and creativity. Letizia's dress is one of a kind.
ردحذفSince I have eclectic tastes I do like it. It's a fun dress for summer. Maybe more on the casual side but I like how the vertical decoration on the neckline transitions into the horizontal tiers of the skirt. It has a Latin or Spanish flair to it especially when twirling or in motion. Once can imagine dancing the flamenco in this dress.
It must have been such a nice day !
ردحذفShe looks very polished in her uniform as does the king. Her family is so proud of her accomplishment. The queens dress is very nice both in colour and fit. Sofia’s top fits well.
ردحذفLOVE the Queens dress!
ردحذفQueen Letizia's dress is very beautiful, but it fits the model better. I think Letizia's dress is a bit too wide for her. On the other hand the skirt of the dress looks wider on the model than on the queen. I don't know what it is, but there is something odd.
ردحذفInfanta Sofia is wearing a white shirt or a blouse with an asymmetrical hemline on black trousers. Yesterday Princess Alexia wore a white shirt with one part tucked in her black skirt and one part not tucked in, which created an asymmetrical hemline. Is this fashion trend coming back ? A few years ago young people followed this trend too.
I see a difference with a shirt designed that way and half tucked in to create the same look. One looks neat the other very sloppy.
حذفI LOVE the Vogana dress. Absolutely beautiful and beautiful colours for Letizia. When she’s finished with it, I’d be happy to take it on!

Que d émotions.
ردحذفLetizia est charmante. Toujours des tenues qui sortent des chantiers battus.
Froufrou
Tout à fait mais il faut dire plutôt sentiers battus !!
حذفPardon. Je n ai pas relu, bien sûr sentiers
حذفFroufrou
Queen L as well as Sofia look quite good.
ردحذفLeonor looks quite good, as far as this uniform allows it.
What a beautiful family ........ such joy .....
ردحذفIndeed, @ Deadeggs!!
حذفGreat parents, great daughters.
That's what loving, caring and responsible parenting can achieve.
Letizia's dress is a class for itself, very strong design in all its simplicity, she looks fabulous (she does it anyway all the time). Sofía's blouse is also wonderful, this is an asymmetrical hemline optimally placed - just one feature and it elevates the blouse to elegance, no need for frills and puffy sleeves.
ردحذفThe Vogana dress is beautiful, and it's the trimming on the dress that really makes it special. I like the flared skirt version.

Queen Leti and Infanta Sofia looks like 9
ردحذفOctober. It is summer, even if it is an official event, it is not a funeral. Some colours would have been nice
Really?!
حذفSome people here is obssesed with colours...which is considered tacky in Spain most of the time
حذف¿Queen Leti? ¿La conoces de algo, eres de su familia?
حذفEstán en un evento de la Marina. No hay nada más apropiado que el azul de la Reina y el azul y blanco de Sofía. Pero hablar es gratis.

حذفYes, but not only in Spain.
Normally, being obsessed with bizzarre thories about colours is considered tacky everywhere.
Not to mention the total lack of knowledge re: street clothes and uniforms and their use at official ceremonies like the one pictured here.
The usual gutter press remarks from people lecturing others from their comfort zones.
The RL look very nice. Letizia's dress is very lovely great color. White and black always look nice. Leonor looks good. Done with the Navy start with the Air Force, last but not least I would say the Army.

It is navy
حذفEn el Ejército de Tierra ya estuvo el año pasado.
حذفLeonor looks like she had a tough time.
ردحذفEs falso. Son bulos inventados por los separatistas.
حذفI love the Queen’s dress, perfect for a hot summer day. She looks beautiful.
ردحذفGorgeous dress but not what I would have chosen for the event. To me, it looks too casual when everyone else is in uniform.
ردحذفTú no tienes nada que escoger, no es tu posición. Llevan uniforme los militares, pero ahí están todas las familias de los guardiamarinas y de los nuevos oficiales, todos vestidos de calle, como la Reina, la Infanta y la Ministra. Antes de hablar, hay que mirar.
حذفAbsolutely, agreed - it’s at odds with the event
حذفwell stated Angie
حذفThey are not in the Army, families must wear sport clothes...by the way..could you explain me the event, please? Maybe the Spaniards understaTheynd worse the "event"...mainly the Royal family where the King is the Commander of the Army and his wife and daughter do not understand the "event"..🥰
حذفJ'espère que les autres élèves officiers ont également reçu cette médaille 🏅
ردحذفElle n'était pas seule sur le navire , il serait intéressant de le savoir .
Il semble que la plupart des élèves (voire tous) ont reçu une distinction, comme c'est indiqué dans la première phrase du texte, avec la forme du pluriel : remise "des" brevets et "des" nominations "aux nouveaux officiers".
حذفMais le détail des médailles pour chacun n'est pas précisé. Paloma.
Laetizia porte une robe magnifique, la couleur, les volants, la forme, elle est parfaite.
