DUBAI/ PARIS: Part-Arab model Shanina Shaik was in Paris this week, attending a range of Fashion Week events in the French capital.

On Sunday night, the model attended a dinner to celebrate US cosmetics brand Hourglass’s new brand partner and before that, she was on hand as British designer ‌Victoria Beckham presented her latest collection on Friday, according to Reuters.

Shaik, an Australia-born model of Saudi, Pakistani and Lithuanian descent, has worked closely with the fashion label before, posing for Victoria Beckham Beauty in a social media campaign in 2025.

In October, Shaik was featured in photos from a collaboration post on Instagram between her and the beauty brand. She was seen applying products such as the satin kajal liner and eye wear palette to create a soft, bronzed makeup look.

Earlier this week, Beckham presented sculptural gowns in sheer fabrics, tightly cut suits and voluminous coats in ​Paris for a Fall/Winter 2026 collection that played with shape and texture.

Dresses in dark blues and greens featured bodices of three-dimensional rosettes, a motif that repeated across skirts, contrasting with sober suits in navy and ‌black.

Large overcoats ‌were paired with ​sheer ‌white ⁠skirts ​or drainpipe trousers, ⁠while knitwear had giant collars and cut-outs revealing the models’ backs.

According to the show notes, the collection was inspired by the work of Art Deco artist Tamara de Lempicka, famous for ⁠her cubist portraits of aristocrats in ‌sumptuous clothing.

Beckham’s ‌husband David and the ​couple’s children Romeo, Cruz, ‌and Harper were on the ‌front row. Their eldest, Brooklyn, was conspicuously absent after he went public in January with accusations against his parents, laying bare a family ‌feud for the first time.

Beckham founded her brand, which sells ⁠dresses ⁠between $950 and $2,500, in 2008 and launched Victoria Beckham Beauty in 2019. Guests at the show were presented with bottles of her recently launched perfume, Portofino ’97, inspired by a holiday the British couple took when they were still a secret item.
