Celebrity Style Special: The Arabian Edition

We show you how to dress like your favourite Middle Eastern muses of the moment. 

 

From Queen Rania of Jordan to supermodel Bella Hadid, we take a look at the most stylish Middle Eastern woman of the moment. We’ll also show you how to get their fashionable look with the key pieces to buy now - all available at the City Centres malls across the Middle East.

 

Queen Rania

HRH Queen Rania is one of the best-dressed royals in the world. Never one to step a well-heeled foot out of fashion, the Jordanian queen is celebrated for her impeccably chic yet modest sense of style.

The mother-of-four works tirelessly to support countless charitable causes and initiatives affiliated with the Queen Rania Foundation, which includes The Al-Aman Fund for the Future of Orphans and The Royal Health Awareness Society.

Despite only recently welcoming twin babies (Ella and Alexander), the wife of George Clooney is not slowing down in the style department and was most recently spotted hitting the red carpet at the Venice Film Festival earlier this month.

The Beirut-born may be married to Hollywood’s golden boy, but she’s a star in her own right. Her work as a barrister at prestigious London-based firm "Doughty Street Chambers" sees her specialise in international law and human rights, with past clients including the likes of WikiLeaks founder "Julian Assange".

Bella Hadid is no stranger to stealing the scene with her fashion-savvy outfits. Along with sister Gigi, the supermodel has taken the modelling world by storm recent seasons. The half-Palestinian beauty has even set a new record by landing the most Vogue magazine covers in one month - an impressive 5 September issues.

While we were hard-pressed to pick just one look, this street style snap, showing the 20-year-old in a swinging sixties-inspired red jumpsuit shows exactly why she is one of the fashion industry’s most in-demand stars.

Scroll down below where we show you how to steal their style and the IT piece you’ll need to achieve it from the shopping malls in Dubai and across the Middle East.

 

Kendall Jenner

In our eyes supermodel Kendall Jenner can’t step a foot out of style. As the face of Estée Lauder, Fendi and La Perla (to name just a few), the trend-making runway queen has certainly picked up a trick or two for her personal wardrobe.

One of the youngest members of the Kardashian/Jenner clan, the 21-year-old beauty recently displayed her fashion credentials while aboard a luxury boat in Cannes, France. The epitome of nautical chic, Kendall opted for high-waisted white trousers teamed with a Breton striped top, black sunnies, and cat-eye shades.

BFF to Kendall, fellow supermodel Gigi Hadid showed just why she is one of the fashion’s favourite faces as she stepped out in New York recently. The American beauty rocked double denim paired with a bright red tank, matching boots and an equally vibrant cherry-hued lipstick.

When opting for wide-leg boyfriend-cut jeans follow Gigi’s suit and accentuate your waist by pairing with a crop top.

When she isn’t storming the catwalks, fronting Vogue covers and landing the most in-demand ad campaigns, Cara Delevingne is busy filming movies with the likes of Will Smith and Margot Robbie. Most recently, the actress/supermodel can be seen in Sci-Fi blockbuster Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets - now showing at Vox Cinemas.

Known for her edgy tomboy style, the young Brit beauty was spotted out and about donning a plunging navy velvet suit and coordinating colourful shades with her newly shaved ice-blonde buzz-cut.
