Georgina Rodriguez hits the red carpet in Venice

DUBAI: Saudi Arabia-based Argentine model Georgina Rodriguez graced the red carpet at the 81st Venice International Film Festival this week, before she was awarded the Diva E Donna Woman of the Year Award for her Netflix series “Soy Georgina.”

She wore an Oscar de la Renta gown, which featured a strapless neckline with a softly draped bodice. The fabric flowed smoothly, creating a structured yet fluid look, and the dress was accented by a thigh-high slit and long train. 

Rodriguez arrived in Venice on Tuesday aboard a private jet, wearing fitted black shorts paired with fishnet tights and a matching top before she changed into a back minidress. The model flew to Italy from Monaco, where she attended the UEFA Champions League Group Stage draw alongside her partner, football icon Cristiano Ronaldo.

Rodriguez has been living in Saudi Arabia since January 2023, following Ronaldo’s signing with Al-Nassr football club. Since then, she has made an effort to explore the Kingdom and her experiences will be featured in the third season of her Netflix show.

The reality TV show “Soy Georgina” (“I Am Georgina”) will focus on her life in Saudi Arabia, documenting her journey after the move with Ronaldo. 

“What is true luxury like in Saudi Arabia? We will find out when Gio and her family settle in Riyadh with Cristiano's signing for Al-Nassr,” Netflix stated.

According to the announcement, the season will also show Rodriguez enjoying a number of firsts, including the opening of her first beach house, Villa Perla, to starring in an international campaign for a luxury clothing brand and her Paris Fashion Week debut.

The star couple took some time off from their hectic schedules to explore Saudi Arabia’s coastline and the Red Sea development in June.

The two took to social media to post photos from their relaxing getaway at what seemed to be The St. Regis Red Sea Resort. They were seen enjoying the resort and its pristine beaches along with their children.

“My world,” Rodriguez captioned her post, featuring several images from the vacation.

In one of the photos, Portuguese footballer Ronaldo can be seen relaxing in a pool with his son Cristiano Ronaldo Jr. who turned 14 this June.

Bella Hadid leaves Paris for Los Angeles launch event

DUBAI: Supermodel Bella Hadid jetted from Paris to Los Angeles this week to launch her latest campaign with US fashion retailer Revolve.

The Palestinian US Dutch model was on hand in France earlier in the week, where she hit the runway at the Saint Laurent show during Paris Fashion Week.

She then flew across to Los Angeles to launch a campaign with Los Angeles-founded retailer Revolve, which was set up in 2003 by Michael Mente and Mike Karanikolas.

Hadid fronts a campaign launching the e-commerce department store’s first-ever in-house brand, Revolve Los Angeles.

“Born from a deep understanding of the modern woman and inspired by the city where it all began, our eponymous fashion house is a new expression of effortless glamor,” the new fashion label posted on Instagram alongside black-and-white images of Hadid in a selection of looks.

Prior to her trip to Los Angeles, the model showed off French label Saint Laurent’s latest collection in Paris.

Creative Director Anthony Vaccarello, marking his own 10th anniversary at the helm, sent out a parade of razor-sharp Smokings — the house term for its iconic women’s tuxedo — with plunging necklines and elongated silhouettes that crackled with the same transgressive energy founder Yves Saint Laurent unleashed in the 1960s, the Associated Press reported.

But Vaccarello didn’t stop at evening wear.

He extended the same sensual, body-skimming tailoring into daytime suits in fluid pinstripe fabrics with almost no interlining, effectively arguing that the tuxedo silhouette belongs in a woman’s life around the clock.

Plenty of brands in Milan showed strong black pantsuits this season, but the Saint Laurent version still occupies its own territory — sleeker, sharper, more loaded with meaning.

The other half of Vaccarello’s equation was lace, stiffened with latex and tailored into structured cardigan-like jackets and straight skirts.

It was lace with backbone — tough, not delicate.

Paired with smoky eyes, chunky gold jewelry and slingback heels, the collection made a case that Saint Laurent’s codes are as potent as ever.
