Victoria Federica and the ‘low cost’, a difficult link but not impossible

Victoria Federica continues to consolidate its privileged position as a style icon. The daughter of the Infanta Elena has managed to carve a niche for herself until she has become a fashion reference for the younger female audience. The refined style consists of two large blocks: luxury to a greater extent and cheap to a lesser extent but with a clearly complementary role. The latter will be the subject of study for this article. In the huge closet with the the girl There is also room for some more affordable proposals that eventually become sales phenomena. This is what Victoria herself has shown us lately.

It’s no secret that as her influencer facet has grown, Froilán’s sister has increased the glamor in her outfits. So much so that during one of her last appearances, at the parade that Christian Dior organized in style in Seville, we saw her wearing a look and bag from the Italian firm. Elegance, trend and sophistication, but not always with luxury as the protagonist. Take, for example, his arrival at this year’s April fair, which received a lot of comment.

For that occasion Vic chose a dress from the Sevillian firm The Nook Shop. It was the Alice model and it was a long sleeve design with a floral print and a predominance of pink. A perfect style for a guest at an event, which was found in the company’s online boutique by 79 euros. As expected, once the origin of the piece went viral, it sold out quickly in stores.

And at a wedding – that of her friends Mima Montoro and Javier Rodríguez – it was exactly where Victoria Federica shone with a perfect orange look, a long orange kimono-style crossed dress and orange flared hem, worth 217 euros. Though the attention that day was divided between her clothes and her accessories. The young woman used the Alma Naranja earrings from the Spanish brand Casilda Finat. At only five centimeters, they are made of gold-plated brass with colorful and showy stones. A light accessory that costs only 30 euros and is still available on the web.

Although she is not very inclined to use Inditex brands, she sometimes falls for some proposals from brands such as Zara. For example with the black sweater he wore during the last Paris Fashion Week, a piece with openings that belongs to the spring collection. The price was only 18 euros.

Dressed in luxury or low cost, the only thing that is certain is that Victoria Federica de Marichalar y Borbón is the most stylish and followed royal of the moment. Despite being only 21 years old, he is already arousing passions in each of his performances. He did not need great charisma or overwhelming presence, nor to attract attention, although he was the protagonist in some controversies. What is undeniable is that he has managed to combine the full attention of the tabloid press (for his sentimental swings and his relationship with the Spanish royal family) and fashion for the choice of his outfits.

At this point, the question is forced. Where is the massive social and media impact it enjoys? It’s a good reflection that lends itself to a subjective play, but perhaps it’s something extraordinary to see her make plans that anyone her age would do, with her congenital condition and ties to the Royal Family. She goes out to dinner, parties, travels with her friends or is seen with her partners if she has them.

The toll of this is increased overexposure, being chased by photographers and seeing your name in the headlines day in and day out. And not always for reasons related to fashion. A situation that she did not always handle well, but which she accepted naturally and resignedly. All this without forgetting that he will be 22 in September and still has a long way to go to shine.
