Georgina Rodriguez appeared at the Met Gala in a creation by Belgian designer Ludovic de Saint Sernin, but the detail that received the most attention was a rosary that, according to reports, was designed by her herself and whose value is estimated at up to seven million euros. For her overall styling, with which she arrived at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, stylist Alba Melendo was in charge.
In line with this year's theme, "Fashion is art.”, Georgina Rodriguez’s team said the inspiration for her look came from her devotion to Our Lady of Fatima. The dress, handmade in Paris, had a structured, corset-like silhouette, with hand-painted details and lace in shades of light blue. The look was completed with a veil, while two hand-embroidered messages in Spanish were hidden inside the creation: “Where she is, the soul finds refuge" and "And deliver us from evil, amen."
Designer Ludovic de Saint Sernin told him Vogue Spain that Georgina's style had impressed him from the first meeting. "In her I see a natural elegance and a quiet sensuality.", he said. He added that the work on the dress was "a true collaboration", a balance between her vision and his, and that the initial idea was born after a conversation about her faith in the Virgin of Fatima.
However, the most attention went to the luxurious rosary, which is said to have been designed by Georgina herself. It is made of 18-carat white gold and contains five natural pearls, 53 diamonds on the chain and 11 diamonds on the cross. The medallion contains the image of Our Lady of Fatima, as well as the names of her family members. The value of this piece has not been officially confirmed, but some media outlets estimate it at up to seven million euros.
The look was completed with silver platform shoes from Le Silla and a jewelry set from Chopard, which featured the Queen of Kalahari diamond. Georgina's creative team emphasized that her look combines personal confidence with the highest level of craftsmanship, giving fashion both visual and symbolic meaning.
