Europalia, a biennial arts festival that spotlights a different country or theme through a rich and multidisciplinary programme, is dedicating its 2025 edition to Spain—exactly forty years after the country was last featured in 1985. Running from 8 October 2025 to 1 February 2026, Europalia España will unite heritage and contemporary art, offering fresh perspectives on themes that both connect and challenge the audience.
For this cultural engagement abroad, Queen Letizia brought back her modified Giorgio Armani printed pleated dress, first worn in September 2023 for World Cancer Research Day in London.
She accessorised with new burgundy suede Magrit pieces, wearing the ‘Mar’ slingback kitten-heel pumps and carrying a matching 'Pissa' clutch.
