The unapologetic fashion icons of the Middle East, Riyadh-based Georgina Rodriguez and Her Highness Sheikha Al-Mayassa bint Hamad bin Khalifa Al-Thani of Qatar, both turned heads with an unexpected yet iconic moment at Valentino’s Fall/Winter 2025 show.

Held in Paris, the pair were spotted sitting in the front row, sharing pleasantries, casually talking, and, as usual, effortlessly stealing the spotlight with their grace.

It’s no feat that both women have garnered attraction at the venue where Valentino’s creative director, Alessandro Michele, presented his second ready-to-wear show, Le meta-theatre des intimates.

While gallantly wearing the Maison’s pieces, the pair surely became the stars of the evening alongside Dubai-based entrepreneur Karen Wazen and Palestinian-Chilean singer Elyanna.

The Qatari royal wore a vibrant coat in blue, pink and purple colourways, which featured a high-collar tailored fit with geometric patterns.

Of course, the wife of Cristino Ronaldo didn’t settle for any less than perfect for her next round of Fashion Week appearances.

Just after her stunning FROW attire at Elie Saab, the Argentinian star opted for a bit of vintage finesse with a Valentino Garavani wool coat. While the outfit itself is from the Maison’s FW24 collection, Georgina’s penchant for vintage styles was evident with the coat’s silhouette, fur trims, an all-over geometric V pattern and an elegant curled hairdo.
