Queen Letizia wore a vintage Balenciaga gown with a Balenciaga cape that were loaned to her by the Antoni de Montpalau foundation. The cape was made by Cristobal Balenciaga in 1962 for the Marchioness of Robert and Countess of Torroella de Montgrí to be worn at the wedding of King Juan Carlos and Queen Sofia (with thanks to Vanitatis.)
