Get ready for an optical illusion. At first sight, Queen Letizia of Spain is clearly wearing a little black dress — cinched at the waist and with a bow detail around the neck — but grab a magnifying glass and take a closer look. The Spanish royal's LBD is not even a dress! It's an A-line two-fold midi skirt from Danish brand (and royal favorite) Bogelund-Jensen with a silk bow sleeveless top tucked in.

With this simple, eye-tricking look, the queen reminded us that black from head to toe is always the smartest choice and inspired us to fake our own dress next time we're in a pinch for something to wear. Scroll ahead to check out a close-up of Letizia's outfit at the 2016 Planeta Awards in Barcelona and find a few skirt and top options to re-create her style.
