Monochrome monarch: Queen Letizia of Spain is sophisticated in a patterned dress as she attends a meeting in Alicante
Queen Letizia of Spain looked effortlessly elegant as she stepped out in a chic patterned dress and long black overcoat to attend a meeting in Petrer.
The Spanish royal, 50, was pictured in the monochrome ensemble as she arrived for a meeting with the Spanish Federation of Rare Diseases in the Alicante province.

King Felipe VI and Queen Letizia were hosting their annual reception for the Diplomatic Corps living in Madrid
Last week, she attended a cancer conference in Madrid which discussed strategies to tackle the disease with some of Spain’s leading cancer experts.

Queen Letizia and King Felipe VI hosted a reception for Spain’s Diplomatic Corps at Zarzuela Palace and lined up to great their guests at the start.
Footage shared to Twitter showed that Iran’s ambassador to Spain, Hassan Ghashghavi, shook the King’s hand, but placed his hands over his heart and nodded to the Queen.
