Lady Margot Fenring is a fictional character from the Dune universe created by Frank Herbert. She is featured in Herbert's Dune (1965), and is a major character in the Prelude to Dune prequel trilogy (1999-2001) by Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson and the 2008 novel Paul of Dune.

The Bene Gesserit wife of Count Hasimir Fenring, Margot is first described in Dune through Feyd-Rautha Harkonnen's eyes:

The non-canon Dune Encyclopedia (1984) by Willis E. McNelly invents an extensive, alternate biography for Margot.
