Green with envy! Queen Letizia of Spain stuns in a recycled Maje floral emerald dress as she joins King Felipe at new art exhibition in Grenada
- Spanish Queen, 48, attended Museum of Fine Arts inside the Palace of Carlos V
- Joined husband, 53, in Granada for ‘Odaliscas. From Ingres to Picasso’ today
- Exhibition celebrates work of artists who created paintings around odalisques
Queen Letizia of Spain was the epitome of summer chic as she sported a floral emerald dress while joining King Felipe at a new art exhibition.
The Spanish Queen, 48, attended the opening of ‘Odaliscas: From Ingres to Picasso’ at the Museum of Fine Arts inside the Palace of Carlos V at Alhambra, in Granada on Thursday.
For the occasion, she sported the floaty number from Maje, which featured an asymmetric hemline and highlighted her slender waist.
Known for re-wearing her favourite pieces, it was the third time the monarch has sported the floral number after first wearing on a visit to Ovideo Archeology Museum in July 2019, and again last summer on a trip to Palma de Mallorca.

The mother-of-two often opts for lighter colours during the summer months, and kept cool in the lightweight chiffon fabric.
She added height to her petite frame with a pair of cream court heels and toted a complementary plum clutch under her arm.
Keeping safe with a white face covering, she kept her makeup look minimal and wore her raven locks in sleek lines.
Meanwhile, King Felipe, 53, opted for a grey suit and navy tie, which he wore with a blue pinstripe shirt.
