Queen Rania celebrated her 54th birthday on 31 August and she looked beautiful in a new official portrait.
The Kuwaiti-born Jordanian royal exuded classic elegance in a fitted black dress with capped mid-length sleeves and a crew neck. She also wore a sash with a diamond crown brooch and diamond earrings.

The diadem is inscribed with the Arabic words 'Greatness for Allah' from the Quran and features approximately 1,300 diamonds, weighing roughly 20 carats. Rania rarely wears the piece but pulled it from her collection on her son's wedding day.
Queen Rania's sense of style

Among her sensational looks was this pale blue number from 2022 when the Jordanian royal couple posed with French President Macron and his wife Brigitte prior to lunch at the Élysée Presidential Palace.

She opted for unusual accessories to add a sense of visual interest to the look - the 'Embroidered Bird of Paradise By The Way Boston Bag' from Fendi and some reserved white patent heels from Jimmy Choo.
