Quite a few, it seems.
Lights, cameras and glamour – that’s what you can expect to find on any red carpet.

These are the Arab streetwear brands you need to know about
From Elie to Zuhair and beyond, fashion labels from the region have dominated awards show, premieres and glitzy parties in recent years.
Here, we’ve rounded up some of the latest looks from Arab designers for you to coo over…
Queen Rania in Reemami
The Jordanian royal sported a skirt by UAE label Reemami to the launch of an anti-bullying campaign. With its knotted detailing, the piece was imbued with maritime chic (and teamed with a Tibi top, FYI).
Emily Blunt in Elie Saab
The English actress looked picture-perfect in this tiered lace midi from the Lebanese designer at a London premiere. We adore the graphic embroidery against the delicate fabric.
Winnie Harlow in Zuhair Murad
The Lebanese label blended fierce tailoring and an ultra-feminine print in this Pre-Fall tuxedo, as worn by the model.
Fan Bingbing in Georges Hobeika
The Chinese actress was imbued with Old Hollywood charm at this press conference, thanks to the Lebanese design’s sweeping off-shoulder, frothy tulle and reams of beading.
Miranda Lambert in Georges Chakra
The country singer had a lady in red moment at the Academy of Country Music Awards, with this glamorous fusion of floor-sweeping skirt and sequinned bodice.
Mishel Prada in SemSem
Abeer Al Otaib’s label came up trumps with this printed co-ord. We feel like we haven’t seen the peplum in some time, and now we want to wear little else.
