Reem Acra, the internationally renowned fashion designer, has extended her sponsorship of the World Cup Final and the series’ Western European League for another three years to 2019, the FEI, International Equestrian Federation, announced Thursday.

The new agreement was signed backstage at the Reem Acra Fall 2016 ready-to-wear runway show during last month’s New York Fashion Week.

Reem Acra’s initial three-year agreement began in 2010 and was renewed in 2013. The new agreement extends the partnership term to nine years.

The designer, who has dressed some of the most famous Hollywood stars, including Angelina Jolie and Halle Berry, and music icons Taylor Swift and Beyonce, also sponsors the FEI’s annual Best Athlete award and has designed gowns for award winners Charlotte Dujardin and Adelinde Cornelissen.

“We have already established a very successful partnership with the FEI during our time as title sponsor of FEI World Cup Dressage and really enjoy being associated with this prestigious dressage series”, Reem Acra said. “I absolutely adore the grace and elegance of horses and the harmony of dressage resonates with me and with the style and elegance of my creative designs. I had no hesitation in extending our partnership to another level of commitment, to continue my association with equestrian sport and this world class event.”
