Under the Parisian lights, Arab elegance stole the show. During this year’s Paris Fashion Week, a constellation of Arab stars illuminated the runways with poise, confidence, and timeless sophistication — each look a dialogue between heritage and haute couture.
Tara Emad — The White Elegance
Egyptian actress Tara Emad radiated effortless grace in a white suit featuring half sleeves and wide-leg trousers, styled with a classic Chanel bag and soft waves. Later, she embraced minimalism in jeans, a crisp white shirt, and a sleeveless black vest for Chanel’s daytime show — proof that simplicity can speak louder than embellishment.
Mai Omar — The Eternal Black
Egyptian star Mai Omar chose black as her statement of power, dazzling at the Messika event in an off-shoulder gown with a dramatic train. Later, she redefined winter glamour in an all-white fitted dress with soft fur accents — merging classic refinement with bold sensuality.
Yasmine Sabri — The L’Oréal Glow
Yasmine Sabri embodied power and poise — first in a shimmering fish-scale gown for L’Oréal Paris, then in Balmain’s structured black leather look with over-the-knee boots and a defined waistline. Her final appearance — a soft blue dress layered under a beige trench — proved that quiet luxury can be just as captivating.
Aseel Omran — The Quiet Opulence
Saudi actress Aseel Omran captivated Paris in a high-neck white gown embroidered with luminous detailing at L’Oréal Paris. Later, she stunned in a grey-and-black asymmetrical creation by Syrian designer Rami Al Ali — where Arab craftsmanship met French sophistication in seamless harmony.
Basma Bousil — Feathers and Fearlessness
Moroccan artist Basma Bousil turned heads with a bold monochrome statement — feathered black and white accents, a leather skirt, and deep burgundy details. A fearless expression of individuality wrapped in Parisian flair.
Njoud Al Rummayhi — The Art of Details
Saudi fashion icon Njoud Al Rummayhi brought warmth and refinement to Paris. At George Hobeika’s show, she glowed in an emerald-green ensemble trimmed with fur and elegant embroidery. Later at Hermès, she embraced soft beige and orange tones paired with a military-inspired hat and structured handbag — the perfect harmony between strength and elegance.
"In Paris, Arab elegance spoke a language of its own — confident, modern, and beautifully rare."
As the week came to an end, one truth shimmered brighter than sequins: Arab women no longer follow the runway — they redefine it. In every fold, every jewel, and every stride, there was a story of heritage meeting haute couture — a legacy of light that continues to shine.
