Like Alexandra of Hannover, Sassa de Osma is one of those royals we could call second-tier, since they do not live confined by the strict protocol that women such as Queen Letizia, Máxima of the Netherlands, or Kate Middleton do. These royal families have a much more formal institutional representation, and the blue-blood character makes it impossible for them to have public profiles as extensive as those of the wife of Christian of Hannover.
Sassa, in addition to being the wife of a prince, is an entrepreneur, creates content on social media, and has become a true style reference. On her Instagram profile we can find looks and ideas that are the perfect balance between that royal touch and the season’s most cutting-edge trends. Since we are in the height of summer and dressing elegantly when the heat is on can be quite a challenge, we have collected some of the ideas we found on her profile so you can get inspired and also craft your own version of royal style.
Parasol-style Hat
The first of these has particularly pleased us for the accessories rather than the garments that form the base of the look. Sassa de Osma has been vacationing at the beach and, to protect herself from the sun, has resorted to one of those hats with colored ribbons that are so in fashion this season. Despite being a royal, she dares with striking accessories, vibrant colors and mixes of prints that, at first glance, could seem impossible. On this occasion she combined a checked hat with a long floral dress, creating a summer look that has caused a sensation. The ensemble is formed by a Lisa Corti dress and a Lorna Murray hat.
Shirt Dress
Sassa de Osma has also loved the beaches and landscapes of Cantabria, and in another photograph she has shared from this special enclave, she wears a Dior shirt dress that has also been very well received. Although it features a classic silhouette, with an A-line skirt, long sleeves, a lapel collar, and a button closure, the garment stands out for its pastel color combination. It is a color-block design in tones such as yellow, pink, green, and blue. She paired it with espadrille-effect mules, also from the French maison, and a raffia bag perfect for summer.
Floral Dress
The third look, though simple and with a single dress as the protagonist, is one of those formulas that you can’t go wrong with during summer. Sassa de Osma posed against a beautiful sunset wearing a dress from her own brand, Philippa 1970. This line, which has dressed even Queen Letizia, is known for bold prints, where bright, multi-colored flowers take center stage, and this piece is one of the best examples. With straps, a fitted bodice, and a very voluminous skirt, the dress became the absolute protagonist of the look and she again paired it with the same raffia bag she had worn earlier.
Striped Dress
Another one of the looks she has chosen to attend an event is the best proof of a trend we’ve already spoken about in the guest fashion world: stripes. This pattern, which at first glance can seem more informal and associated only with spring looks, is making a strong entrance into autumn, and Sassa de Osma has confirmed that it can also be a hit at the most special events. She did so with a midi design by De Loreta, featuring a square neckline and orange and blue as the main colors.
Caftan for the Beach
Another look that has become one of our favorites is one of the easiest to copy. And Sassa de Osma knows that the best way to elevate a beach or pool look is with a kaftan. These light, comfortable, and breezy pieces are one of the great must-haves of summer. They come in a thousand colors and prints and are everything you need to leave the beach with style. She chose a tunic-style model by Philippa 1970, featuring a green and white striped print and black contrasting embroidery. It is a linen design, long-sleeved and with tasselled ties that have surely become one of the most copied.
Bikini Trend
Finally, among summer looks, a good swimsuit could not be missing. And yes, Sassa de Osma has also found the most elegant bikini, but also the trendiest. This season, the Vichy check print has become the protagonist of new swimwear collections, and the royal could not resist this option from Calzedonia, which we have also seen worn by Georgina Rodríguez. It is a model with a balconette-style top in green and white and a classic bottom, which she has paired with white sunglasses for a perfect result.
