Salma Hayek, Demi Moore, Dakota Johnson, Lauren Sánchez Bezos, Linda Evangelista, and Georgina Rodríguez lit up the fourth annual Kering Caring for Women dinner held in New York City. This exclusive charity event brought together the best of fashion and social commitment with a private auction of unique pieces and experiences from Kering’s renowned houses: Gucci, Saint Laurent, Bottega Veneta, Balenciaga, Boucheron, Pomellato, and Ginori 1735. The gala was organized to raise funds in support of NGOs dedicated to addressing gender violence and helping survivors and their families.

Lauren became Jeff Bezos’ wife this summer, while Georgina recently announced her engagement to Cristiano Ronaldo. The journalist and philanthropist wore a champagne-colored mermaid-cut gown by Schiaparelli paired with luxurious jewelry, including her wedding ring. The model chose a strapless, straight-cut gown with a Messika necklace set with 2,400 diamonds and her engagement ring, an extraordinary piece valued at no less than 6 million euros. Although Bezos skipped the red carpet that night, he did pose with Sánchez inside the event.

The model had visited children with cancer at King Faisal Hospital in Riyadh, and the wife of the world’s second-richest man did not hesitate to applaud her. “What a beautiful soul,” said the journalist, TV host, and philanthropist.

Respect, affection, and mutual support remain constant despite a highly publicized and intertwined past. Linda Evangelista’s son was born from a brief romance with François-Henri Pinault in 2006, during a pause in his relationship with Salma Hayek. August was born that October, and just eleven months later, the French businessman and the Mexican actress welcomed their daughter, Valentina Paloma. At the charity event, Linda Evangelista posed with 17-year-old Valentina, once again showing the love and strong bond they share.

The former girlfriend of Chris Martin radiated beauty just a month before her sister Stella’s wedding in Spain, the daughter of Melanie Griffith and Antonio Banderas. Enjoying her single life after ending her engagement to the Coldplay frontman, Dakota stole the spotlight at this charity event.
