DUBAI: Saudi Arabia-based Argentine model Georgina Rodriguez, long-time partner of Portuguese footballer Cristiano Ronaldo, wowed fans at the 80th edition of the Venice International Film Festival this week.
The Netflix star, who has her own reality show titled “I Am Georgina” and now calls Riyadh home, posed on the red carpet in a hot red dress with an off-the-shoulder bust from Swiss luxury label Vetements in collaboration with Lebanese couturier Elie Saab. The floor length gown was from the brand’s Spring/Summer 2024 ready-to-wear collection.
She paired her look with white gloves, black platform heels and a chunky choker necklace.
The 29-year-old model attended the premiere of “Enea,” a film written and directed by Italian star Pietro Castellitto.
Rodriguez took to Instagram to share pictures of her trip to Venice with her 50.8 million followers. Her travel outfit was a black corset top and black tailored pants, which she topped off with brown Chanel glasses and a silver Hermes purse.
“My fifth year in Venice with love in my heart,” she wrote on Instagram.
Upon her arrival, the model went for lunch wearing a red, yellow and orange ombre mini-dress, which she also shared pictures of on Instagram.
