On Thursday evening, luxury house Chopard hosted a lavish gala dinner at the Palais Moulay Hafid in Tangier in support of the Lalla Asmaa Foundation, as part of Tangier Fashion Week.
Held under the honorary presidency of Princess Lalla Asmaa, the gala aimed to support the Foundation's work with hearing-impaired children and those with cochlear implants.
This major charitable event brought together an array of international aristocracy, prominent Moroccan families, and leading figures from the worlds of cinema, fashion, and luxury. Among the guests were international film star and style icon Luke Evans, who has shown a strong personal commitment to the Foundation's cause, as well as Carlo D'Amario, Chairman of Vivienne Westwood, Egyptian actress Nelly Karim, Moroccan TV host and producer Mayssa El Marghibi, French-Egyptian opera singer Farah El Dibany, Chopard's International Director of High Jewelry Sofyann Salah, and Countess Isabelle de Bigault de Casanova.
The evening featured an exceptional haute couture fashion show from Chopard's «Caroline's» collection, along with a display of its high jewelry creations, all set against the enchanting backdrop of the majestic Palais Moulay Hafid, an ideal setting to showcase such prestigious designs.
Speaking at the event, Luke Evans expressed his admiration for the Lalla Asmaa Foundation's remarkable efforts in Africa and beyond to support deaf and hearing-impaired children.
«This evening of elegance, fashion, and above all generosity is a chance to inspire one another and reflect together on how we can better support this cause», he said. «If we work together, collectively, no matter where we are in the world, we can make a difference».
Sofyann Salah highlighted that the gala dinner was an opportunity to shine a light on the «deeply moving work» carried out by the Foundation, which provides comprehensive and compassionate care for children with hearing impairments.
He emphasized the morning visit to the «Princess Lalla Asmaa Center for Deaf Children» in Tangier, where guests had the chance to witness the services provided by the facility. He affirmed that Maison Chopard is proud to support the Foundation's humanitarian work in helping children thrive.
More than a charitable initiative, the Lalla Asmaa Foundation embodies a holistic social project focused on the inclusion of hearing-impaired children through comprehensive, compassionate, and innovative care.
From cochlear implant surgery to educational, medical, and family support, the Foundation guides each child, and their family, on a sensitive journey toward hearing, speaking, and autonomy.
This edition of Tangier Fashion Week further strengthens the city's position as an emerging hub of luxury, fashion, and socially engaged creativity in Africa and on the global stage.

FIFA Adds Team Songs, Fan Chants to the Club World Cup
FIFA has announced that every team in the tournament will have its official anthem played before matches. That includes Wydad Casablanca, who are in a tough group with Manchester City, Juventus and Al Ain. Each club has been asked to send in an anthem that reflects its history and identity. The idea is to create a more personal and exciting pre-match atmosphere for both players and fans. That's not the only change. For the first round of group games, teams will also get to pick a club legend or their current captain to announce the starting line-up over the stadium speakers. And there's more. FIFA is also bringing back Freed from Desire – the '90s hit that became a terrace anthem after Wigan fans gave it a football twist in 2016. The song will play in every match and be part of the tournament's broadcasts. 'Fans made this song a football classic,' FIFA said. 'We want to honour that.' The tournament will kick off with a big opening ceremony next Saturday at Miami's Hard Rock Stadium. The show starts at 7:15 p.m. local time (just after midnight in Morocco) and will feature performances from the Moroccan rapper French Montana and Swae Lee. The concert will be streamed live and free on DAZN and marks the start of what FIFA says will be the biggest Club World Cup yet, with 32 teams playing across 11 cities in the US. But it's not just about music and festivities. The opening and halftime shows will support the FIFA Global Citizen Education Fund, which aims to raise $100 million to help children around the world get access to quality education and football. One dollar from every ticket sold will go to the fund. 'We're going to bring the world together for a beautiful moment,' said singer Tems, who joins J Balvin and Doja Cat for the final's halftime show. Tags: Club World CupDoja CatFIFAFrench Montana
