Infanta Sofia, the daughter of King Felipe and Queen Letizia, has taken an important step in her royal life by attending her first institutional engagement completely alone.
At 17, Sofia appeared at the photography awards ceremony that bears her name, marking a debut that did not go unnoticed. Her participation was very well received, and although some praised her, she also received some negative comments.

Princess Leonor’s sister arrived at the event wearing an elegant white two-piece suit, reminiscent of the outfits worn by both the Crown Princess and her mother, Queen Letizia.
However, there are those who dare to say that her real inspiration has been the famous Princess Kate Middleton.
Infanta Sofia’s white suit
On Friday, December 13, Sofia went to the Royal Collections Museum in Madrid to preside over the awards ceremony.
As always, the Infanta showed off her great style by pairing an oversized black button-down blazer with matching pants. Her long brown hair was worn loose.

As for her makeup, she opted for a natural look: black eyeliner, mascara that enhanced her eyelashes, pink blush, and a nude lipstick that perfectly complemented her look.
The funny thing is that her outfit not only shone for its elegance, but many compared it to a very similar outfit that Princess Kate wore in 2022 during the Commonwealth Games with her daughter, Princess Charlotte, 9, reports GB News.

Both outfits shared a flattering silhouette at the waist, although Sofia’s ensemble had black buttons, while Kate’s featured discreet white buttons. In addition, Kate opted for a slim-fitting trouser leg, while the Infanta preferred a wide-leg design, showing off her own style.
This white suit is said to be not only a nod to the Spanish Royal Family but also a tribute to Kate.

However, white has been a color tied to significant moments for the Spanish royal family for many years, and in recent times, it has become a favorite of Princess Leonor and her mother, Queen Letizia.
With her first official appearance, Infanta Sofia has shown that she comes with strength and a style all her own, while following in the wake of elegance that characterizes her family.
