Carla Bruni
Carla Bruni wore a resort 2023 draped Elie Saab gown featuring a cape. Bruni, fresh from walking the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, accessorized with a necklace adorned with a large gem.
Jodie Turner-Smith
Jodie Turner-Smith went all-black, wearing a look designed by a member of this year’s FTA jury. Her coat dress came from the Balmain fall 2024 collection designed by Olivier Rousteing. With strong shoulders, the look featured a pleated skirt. Stylists Wayman Deon and Micah McDonald paired it with a suede heel.
Alessandra Ambrosio
Alessandra Ambrosio also chose Balmain. The model opted for a modified look from the brand’s resort 2025 collection, which debuted in June via images shot by Olivier Rousteing. Ambrosio’s look is deceptively simple: though it is black and white, the look is heavily encrusted featuring stones and Swarovski crystals all over.
Nicky Hilton Rothschild
Fresh off of releasing a 31-piece holiday collection, Rebecca Vallance and Nicky Hilton Rothschild have teamed up again. The pair adapted one of the party dresses they released into a custom design for Hilton Rothschild’s appearance at Fashion Trust Arabia. The new black version, which is a take on the dress Hilton Rothschild and Paris Hilton wore to the collection launch, features a high neck and includes a train.
Taraji P. Henson
Taraji P. Henson chose an extravagant look from Zuhair Murad, who was part of the FTA 2024 jury. The ensemble is a heavily embellished sheer gown with a draped neckline and strong shoulders. It comes from the brand’s spring 2024 couture collection, celebrating Phoenician heritage, and was styled by Wayman Deon and Micah McDonald.
