Well-wishes are in order for Queen Rania of Jordan, who celebrates her 53rd birthday on August 31. The embodiment of regal grace and charm, the ageless Queen Rania has distinguished herself as one of the world’s most elegant royals.

Since marrying the then Prince Abdullah of Jordan (now King Abdullah II) in 1993, Queen Rania has captivated the world with her impeccable royal style. As elegant in traditional Jordanian clothing as bedecked in diamonds at lavish gala dinners, the philanthropist and education advocate knows how to dress for any occasion.

It remains to be seen how the royal will mark the occasion but she certainly has plenty to celebrate: her son Crown Prince Hussein married the beautiful Princess Rajwa earlier this year, months after her daughter Princess Iman’s wedding.

Indeed, her look at Crown Prince Hussein’s wedding was one of her most stylish ever. Queen Rania of Jordan looked captivating in a black long-sleeved gown from the Dior A/W 2022 couture collection. The Jordanian queen swept her hair into a sleek updo, revealing intricate embroidery down the back. The look was finished with a structured handbag and simple black stilettos.

Similarly triumphant sartorial displays came at the coronation of King Charles III and Queen Camilla in May and on a visit to Spain, where Rania went toe-to-toe with Queen Letizia to deliver a series of sensational outfits.

To mark her 53rd birthday, we celebrate some of her most memorable style moments.
