Sofía of Greece (1938), who turns 83 today, is one of the most stylish 'royals' within the European royal houses.

During these almost 60 years, Queen Sofía has attracted attention in each of her appearances for her taste in choosing models.

To dress with that elegance, the queen always opts for one of her favorite firms, Valentino. Of this is, for example, the wonderful long light pink dress that she wore at the wedding of Princess Victoria of Sweden with the Duke of Västergötlan, Daniel Westling. On the other hand, we have also been able to see Doña Sofía with models very similar to those of Queen Letizia with her favorite 'working look'; a jacket and pants suit, with a 'pyjama' cut shirt, which the emeritus wore on September 21, at the inauguration of the VIII International Congress of Research in Neurodegenerative Diseases. Don't miss out on how much Queen Letizia's style has evolved.

However, beyond sophisticated and elegant outfits, Princess Leonor's grandmother also likes other more casual models, like the one she wore when she returned to Greece to visit the facilities of the Rehabilitation Center for marine mammals and turtles : a combination of white pants and a long pink and blue striped shirt, completed with a blue scarf.

On the other hand, some of the most iconic 'looks' that I have seen Doña Sofía wear have been in summer. At that time of year, the queen has always opted for casual and simple models. An example is the casual model of a blue and white striped blazer, in the purest sailor style, with a shirt underneath. You may also be interested in Kate Middleton's 50 best looks.
