The broad lapels and deep neckline of Queen Letizia’s grey checked blazer set a formal tone for the meeting at the Palacio de la Zarzuela. She paired it with straight-cut matching trousers and a burgundy high-neck jumper by Falconeri, giving the office suit a softer winter look.
Felipe and Letizia received the Comisión Delegada de la Fundación Princesa de Girona on Wednesday 11 November. The delegation’s meeting with the King and Queen is a regular part of the foundation’s work; they stood in for Princess Leonor, its honorary president since 2014. The meeting covered the foundation’s 2027 action plan and its next budget. Financial reporting through 30 September 2026 was also on the agenda, alongside governance and compliance matters. Trustees discussed the sixth edition of the Tour del talento, which had welcomed nearly 200,000 participants to date. The planned 2027 tour was set to visit the Besòs area of Catalonia, with further stops in Ciudad Real, Cáceres, Huelva and Las Rozas during the first half of the year, according to the Royal Household.
Rain briefly eased in Madrid, giving the group time to take the traditional family photograph on the palace steps before going inside. The royal couple had also attended a funeral Mass at Toledo’s Primatial Cathedral on 10 November for the 69 people who died in the Urda railway accident on 28 October. Francisco Cerro Chaves, Archbishop of Toledo and Primate of Spain, celebrated the Mass. Five bishops from Castilla-La Mancha took part, as did the president of the Spanish Episcopal Conference. A general strike was held on Wednesday 11 November. It was separate from the Madrid teachers’ dispute described in an earlier strike report.
Letizia completed the outfit with rounded-toe loafers and gold hoop earrings. She also wore her Coreterno ring on the index finger of her left hand, with her hair loose.
Her next listed engagement is a visit to Campus Diversia at Finca Mijares in Yátova on Friday 13 November. The project supports people with disabilities and promotes their employment in a rural setting.
