MTV Movie & TV Awards are postponed indefinitely

DUBAI: The MTV Movie & TV Awards have been postponed indefinitely due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic. 

The event was expected to take place in June, according to Variety. 

The cable network will not be hosting a virtual ceremony, like other festivals around the world,  hoping that the event could air sometime this year. If the awards show does not air this year, it will be the first time the show hasn’t aired since it started in 1992. 

The network is also currently considering airing the Video Music Awards in August at the Barclays Center in New York City.

"We’re exploring with government officials, the medical community and key stakeholders on how to safely hold the 2020 VMAs at Barclays Center on August 30th,” an MTV spokesperson told Variety earlier this month.

Amira Al-Zuhair stars in Ramadan campaign for Loro Piana

  • Saudi French model wears a long olive-green dress
  • Begun the year with many high-profile appearances

DUBAI: Saudi French model Amira Al-Zuhair this week fronted a Ramadan campaign for Italian luxury brand Loro Piana.

In images shared on the brand’s Instagram page, Al-Zuhair wears a floor-length olive-green dress featuring a V-neckline, defined waist seam, and fluid cape-style sleeves falling from the shoulders.

According to the brand’s caption, the Ramadan capsule highlights “intricate detailing and the beauty of simplicity,” presenting a wardrobe of comfortable silhouettes.

Shot in the warm, diffused light of a pottery artist’s studio, the campaign centers on elongated shapes, clean lines, and a muted palette of sage and sand tones.

Al-Zuhair has begun the year with a series of high-profile appearances. In addition to the Loro Piana campaign, she walked the runway at Jacquemus’ Fall/Winter 2026 “Le Palmier” show in Paris last month.

The event, staged at the Musee National Picasso, brought Simon Porte Jacquemus’ latest co-ed collection to life with playful yet sculptural silhouettes, blending mid-century couture references and 1990s sensibilities.

“Merci infiniment Simon. It was an honor to be part of this iconic show with such an amazing team, congratulations! Thank you for having me,” posted Al-Zuhair.

The model closed a segment of the show in an ensemble that captured the collection’s nod to both elegant simplicity and bold form.

She wore a black midi skirt with a structured blazer top with cutout detail at the back, cinched at the waist with a wide belt. The look was completed with a wide-brimmed hat that added a touch of drama.

The Jacquemus presentation, which also acted as the finale of Paris Men’s Fashion Week, wove together confetti-like motifs, geometric forms and a celebration of joie de vivre, encapsulating Jacquemus’ irreverent yet refined vision ahead of the upcoming couture season.

Al-Zuhair, born in Paris to a French mother and Saudi father, has appeared on the runway for renowned fashion houses.

She has walked for Missoni, Maison Alaia, Brunello Cucinelli, Balmain, Dolce & Gabbana, Giambattista Valli, Giorgio Armani, Elie Saab and more.

In addition to her runway appearances, Al-Zuhair has featured in campaigns for brands including Prada, Chanel and Carolina Herrera.
