A record for recycling! Queen Letizia steps out in her favourite Hugo Boss striped skirt and black jacket for the FIFTH time

  • Spanish monarch attended  Carlos III: The Keys of a Reign symposium
  • Opened annual event in Aranjuez, Madrid with husband King Filipe 
  • Royal recycled favourite Hugo Boss tailored jacket and striped skirt
  • Has worn ensemble on four previous occasions  

She's known for recycling her outfits, but Queen Letizia of Spain may have set a record today by stepping out in a monochrome Hugo Boss ensemble for the fifth time. 

The monarch, 44, arrived in Aranjuez, Madrid to open the annual Carlos III: The Keys of a Reign international symposium commemorating the 300th anniversary of the birth of the Spanish king.  

And she was rocking a very familiar look in a black and white striped skirt, white blouse and tailored black jacket.

Be a style Queen in a striped monochrome skirt like Letizia's

Whilst the Duchess of Cambridge will always be our reigning royal fashionista, we do like to keep a few other members of the European monarchy on our radar.

Among them is Queen Letizia who was spotted at the International Symposium with Carlos III looking super chic in monochrome look featuring a striped skirt teamed with a white blouse and black belted blazer. She then accessorized her look with pointed heels and a leather handbag.

We’ve spotted Letizia wearing this skirt on several occasions so we reckon it must be one of her favorite pieces! It’s by Hugo Boss but has now sadly sold out, follow the link on the right to shop the current collection, or recreate the look with one of the picks from our edit of alternatives in the edit below.

Perfect for work or play, style with a crisp white shirt and heels for the office, then switch for a cami top and leather jacket to take your look from boardroom to bar in an instant!

It was the fifth time the royal has worn the outfit, which she teamed with black high heeled courts and an elegant leather bag.

Her husband King Felipe looked smart in a grey pinstripe suit, which he teamed with a pale blue shirt and a navy spotted tie.  

The Queen's ensemble made its debut when Letizia and husband King Felipe visited Germany for a two-day official visit in January 2014.

She wore it while attending a press conference with her husband at the Schloss Bellevue presidential palace in Berlin.

The outfit resurfaced in July 2015 during an audience with Peruvian president on the first day of their official visit to Spain. On this occasion Letizia left her Hugo Boss jacket at home thanks to the warmer weather

At the beginning of December 2015 Letizia wore her favourite skirt and jacket pairing as she presented accolades at the Justice and Disability Forum awards in Madrid

In February 2016 Letizia recycled the oufit for the fourth time while attending the Forum Against Cancer at the Telefonica Foundation

It went back in the wardrobe for a while before resurfacing in July 2015 during an audience with Peruvian president and his wife on the first day of their official visit to Spain.

Letizia chose the outfit for an lunch with Ollanta Humala and Nadine Heredia Alarcon at Madrid's Zarazuela Palace.

It was a sunny morning as the royals arrived to open the International Symposium 'Carlos III: The Keys of a Reign in Aranjuez, Madrid 

Queen Letizia showcased a favourite outfit from Hugo Boss for the fifth time, showing she's not afraid of a spot of recycling 

But in December 2015, it was out again as she presented accolades at the Justice and Disability Forum awards in Madrid.

And it's clearly a go-to ensemble for the Royal as she stepped out in the exact same jacket and skirt with a white blouse at today's event just over a month later.

On all four occasions, she's completed the monochrome look with a pair of black court shoes.

Letizia's jacket comes from one of her favourite designers Hugo Boss.

The BOSS Fashion Show 'FS_Jesila' blazer, retailed at £630 and is made from fine camel hair, but has now sold out, as is the brand's Vapina striped skirt, which originally cost £260.

She usually teams the outfit with either a white silk Bedona blouse or a plain crêpe de chine Banora blouse - both by Hugo Boss.
