On Friday, the Spanish Royal Family presided over a solemn ceremony in the Throne Room of the Royal Palace of Madrid, commemorating the 50th anniversary of the restoration of the Spanish monarchy.

During the ceremony, King Felipe VI awarded the Insigne Orden del Toisón de Oro (Illustrious Order of the Golden Fleece) — the highest honour of the Crown — to his mother, Queen Sofía, in recognition of her lifelong dedication and service to Spain and the Crown.

In addition to the queen‑emérita, the honour was also conferred on the former prime minister Felipe González and the two surviving “fathers” of the Constitution — Miquel Roca and Miguel Herrero y Rodríguez de Miñón — in recognition of their roles in Spain’s democratic transition.

This was followed by an event at the Congress of Deputies marking the fiftieth anniversary of the restoration of the Spanish Monarchy and the colloquium “50 Years Later: The Crown in the Transition to Democracy.”
For this stately occasion, Queen Letizia repeated a complete ensemble—top to toe—that she first wore on Day 2 of the State Visit to Italy.
The look consists of her ‘slipper pink’ Carolina Herrera tweed separates, a custom design inspired by a coordinated set from the designer’s FW24 collection.
She accessorized with bespoke pink Magrit pieces—the ‘Carlota’ slingback leather pumps and the matching top-handle structured flap bag.

Queen Letizia again chose to finish the look with her Gold & Roses Luzia Stars Earrings.
