Princess Charlene Continues Her Blue Reign in Elie Saab Gown at Monaco Gala

Princess Charlene of Monaco is in her blue era. The royal attended the 76th Monaco Red Cross Ball on Saturday, wearing an ice blue gown from Elie Saab. The appearance marked her third time in shades of blue in the past two months.

Charlene’s gown featured a V-neckline and a pleated quality throughout, with cape-effect panels draping on her back. The dress was part of Elie Saab’s pre-fall 2025 collection, which was inspired by a trip on the Orient Express and featured Art Deco elements, as reported by WWD in January. She completed her look with an eye-catching diamond necklace by Graff Diamonds.

The princess wore a similar style for the closing ceremony of the 64th Monte Carlo Television Festival in June, where she was seen in a Cinderella blue gown by Louis Vuitton. The ensemble featured a dramatic off-the-shoulder silhouette with a high neckline. In July, while attending a party at the Princely Palace in Monaco, she sported a royal blue jumpsuit by Ralph Lauren.

Princess Charlene is often seen wearing designer pieces. On July 10, she wore a breezy black and white dress by Zimmerman during a visit to South of France’s Carladez with her family.

The 76th Monaco Red Cross Ball, founded in 1948 by Prince Louis II, is Monaco’s premier charity event, serving as a major fundraiser for the Monegasque Red Cross. It supports both local social initiatives and international humanitarian efforts. The evening featured a dinner show, a charity auction, and a headline performance by Billy Idol.
