A few days ago, the United States government revoked Marina del Pilar’s non-immigrant visa, as well as that of her husband, Carlos Alberto Torres. Since then, the governor of Baja California has been in the public eye not only for the controversy, but also for her outfits.
Despite the controversies surrounding her, Marina del Pilar never gives up her glamour, and, just like Altagracia Gómez did with a Miu Miu dress or Lenia Batres’ outfit (criticized by Pedro Sola), Marina del Pilar is always “at the cutting edge of fashion.”
Through her social media, she shares photos and videos of the various events she attends as governor of Baja California, and at one of them, she showed off her taste in clothing and footwear from renowned designer brands.
On May 2, the governor of Baja California shared on social media that she attended an event at Sassi del Valle, a 900-hectare development being built in the heart of the Guadalupe Valley. It seeks to combine art, architecture, and gastronomy, as well as attract national and international tourism, similar to Val’Quirico in Tlaxcala.
At the event, where some progress was shown on this project, which still has no official opening date, the state governor wore a dress in beige and cream tones, which she paired with a subtle white nail design.
Marina del Pilar, who said she doesn’t need a visa to govern, wore a fox fur coat with appliqués resembling biker jackets by the brand Fur-Gala. Underneath, she wore a dress by Colombian designer Johanna Ortiz, and accessorized with shoes by the luxury brand Gucci.

The sneakers Marina del Pilar wore at that May 2nd event were identified by some social media users as one of Gucci’s most popular models.
They are pinkish-beige Horsebit platform sandals. According to their official website, they are made of leather, have a high heel (11.5 cm with a 3 cm platform), and have an adjustable buckle closure.
On Gucci’s official website, these sneakers are listed for 21,500 pesos and can be purchased at any physical store where available.
Johanna Ortiz Dress Worn by Marina del Pilar: Description and Price
To complement her Gucci dresses, Governor Marina del Pilar, who is close to Sheinbaum, wore a dress by designer Johanna Ortiz, although the collection is unknown.
With ruffles on the chest and shoulders, as well as fringe at the bottom and ribbing along the length of this maxi dress, it’s ideal for the hot weather we’ve experienced in recent weeks.
Although it’s not available on Johanna Ortiz’s official website, websites dedicated to the sale of luxury goods, such as Editorialist and Modesens, indicate that it originally cost $1,750 (34,077 pesos according to the exchange rate as of May 17, 2025).
How much does Marina del Pilar’s fox fur coat cost?
Although there are photos in which she isn’t wearing it, one of the accessories she wore to the Del Pilar event is a coat that stands out for its “chubby” appearance, in addition to its biker-style collar.
This style is striking for its timelessness and versatility to be worn with different outfits, just as the governor of Baja California paired it.
Similar styles can be seen online, but Marina’s is the Emma model from the Fur-Gala brand, which primarily sells fox fur jackets, coats, and accessories. It can be purchased through the brand’s official website and costs 10,900 pesos.
What happened to Marina del Pilar’s visa?
Last week, Marina del Pilar Ávila Olmeda, governor of Baja California, announced that the United States had revoked her tourist visa and that of her husband, Carlos Torres. This measure sparked controversy, although no official explanation has been given so far.
The U.S. Embassy in Mexico even described the case as confidential and personal, while the PAN called for transparency, suggesting possible links to crimes such as fuel theft and money laundering, as well as alleged bank accounts in Mexico.
