The Aragonese designer who dresses Queen Letizia

Published on June 10, 2026 | Translated from Spanish

Antonio Burillo, creator of the brand The 2nd Skin Co, has captured the attention of Queen Letizia. The monarch wore one of his white dresses during a reception for the Pope at the Zarzuela Palace. This Aragonese designer, based in Madrid, has managed to place his minimalist style in the royal wardrobe, combining clean lines with sustainable fabrics.

The technical process behind the perfect fabric 👗

The 2nd Skin Co uses knit fabrics with a high percentage of natural fibers, such as organic cotton and linen. Burillo selects local suppliers to reduce the carbon footprint. Each garment is cut with geometric patterns that minimize textile waste. The queen's white dress, for example, used a double internal seam pattern to prevent visible wrinkles, a detail that ensures an impeccable silhouette during official events.

The queen and the dress that didn't ask protocol for permission 😏

The curious thing is that Queen Letizia wore that white dress without first consulting the protocol department. Or at least that's how it seems, because the design left the shoulders exposed, something that in other times would have prompted a diplomatic warning. But since the Pope didn't object, Burillo already has a new slogan: dressing royalty without the need for sleeves.
