On May 27, 2026, King Felipe VI and Queen Letizia of Spain presided over the ceremony for the presentation of the 2024 Gold Medals for Merit in the Fine Arts at the Cathedral Primada de Santa María in Toledo. Through these awards, the Ministry of Culture honors 38 individuals and institutions from the world of culture.
Among the recipients were Los Planetas, José Mercé, and Camela; actors Maribel Verdú, Carmen Machi, and Eduard Fernández; visual artists such as Sandra Gamarra and Cristina de Middel; writers including Elvira Lindo and Bernardo Atxaga; and designer Juana Martín.
The Gold Medal for Merit in the Fine Arts recognizes individuals and organizations that have excelled in artistic and cultural creation or have rendered outstanding service in the promotion, development, dissemination, or preservation of art, culture, and artistic heritage.
Letizia always looks great in red.
ReplyDeleteI think she wore a reasonably similar red dress last week.
Perhaps this dress has a bit less fabric, particularly in the sleeves.
Cate.
I love this dress. The red colour and style are spectacular. It looks like a wrap dress with a wonderful tie at the waist. It's cool and comfortable for hot weather.
ReplyDeleteI agree a nice silhouette
DeleteBeautiful . I would happily own and wear both the dress and shoes. How comfortable and feminine and gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteLetizia a opté pour ce modèle de robe dont le style
ReplyDeleteléger nous montre qu’elle est judicieusement ceinturée ; bon choix que ses petits talons bas à bride arrière pour reposer ses pieds !
Great dress! As noted, QL looks great in red and the wrap style is so flattering with perfect length on the sleeves and dress. Love the last photo where you get to see the dress is motion and the sash looking fabulous blown out to the side a bit.
ReplyDeleteAgree!
DeleteAnother lovely but simple red dress. Something we saw often in the past and only recently. No further comments are needed.
ReplyDelete@15:17 "no further comments are needed" - you mean, you said everything, it is valid for everybody and "the rest is silence", as Hamlet famously said? - The comments in this blog are getting real funny.
DeleteShe likes red and it always looks great on her. So what ? Don't you have a favorite color?

DeleteI meant that no further comments from my point of view are needed.
Everybody else can give as much comments as they want.
I never said that the red color was not good. But one must admit that if you show up for the ?nd time in a red dress it becomes a bit too much of the same.
I love the color on Queen Letizia but I'm iffy on the sleeve. The wrap with the long tie seems so graceful and elegant I think a long full sleeve would look prettier. And I wish she'd wear some jewelery. I feel like it needs something extra, pretty bag and shoes maybe?
ReplyDeleteLovely colour on Letizia - she really suits red and looks great in this wraparound style. It's very hot there at the moment, Letizia is dressed appropriately; pity the poor men who are obliged to wear suits!
ReplyDeleteRed is definitely QL’s colour! This is a good, easy to wear dress that would flatter a wide variety of body shapes. At first I thought it was too long, but the neutral shoes make it work by elongating her legs. (V.M.)
ReplyDeleteShe is looking very beautiful.
ReplyDeleteDifference of fashion opinions ..... I preferred the red one of last week with the flirty sleeves. Seems to flatter her body more.
ReplyDeleteVery nice look for Q Letizia. Red is a good color for her.

This is a beautiful red dress, I prefer this dress as opposed to the red dress she wore last week, this appeals to me so much more. This dress flatters her shape beautifully. I love how the skirt of her dress moves as she walked, love the cascading belt. The color of her shoes, perfect!
