Two Lebanese labels are having quite a moment at the Shanghai Film Festival.

First they ruled the red carpet at Cannes, and now these two Arab designers are stealing the spotlight at yet another film festival.

Zuhair Murad and Ashi Studio have already dressed a trio of starlets between them at the annual event, which is currently in its 20th year.

During the opening weekend, Beirut-born label Ashi Studio kitted out actress and singer Charlene Choi in a delicate embroidered tulle gown.
