Gigi Hadid fronts Miu Miu’s 1930s-inspired campaign

DUBAI: US Dutch Palestinian model Gigi Hadid took to Instagram this week to unveil her latest bag campaign, exuding a 1930s style, with Italian luxury fashion house Miu Miu.

The campaign showcases the Wander and Arcadie bags in their signature matelasse design, with Hadid modeling alongside the handbags available in shades of brown, orange and yellow.

In one shot, she donned a beige form-fitting halter-neck dress with a plunging back, while in another, she appeared in a button-down beige top paired with an ash brown skirt.

She further showcased her style in a vibrant orange top paired with black trousers, gray socks, and brown loafers.

Adding a touch of summery elegance to the shoot, she also wore a floral halter-neck dress featuring shades of grey, white, and orange.

Her final two ensembles consisted of a sleek black set and a blue collared dress.

Throughout all the shots, her hair was styled in a bob.

Captured by Steven Meisel, the photographs draw inspiration from the innovative style of late British photographer Yevonde Middleton, renowned for employing soft colors and incorporating drapery and foliage in her portraits.

This is not Hadid’s debut collaboration with the brand. She graced the brand’s runway during Paris Fashion Week just last month.

She wore a white collared knee-length dress featuring a slit down the middle. The ensemble also featured a luxurious brown fur coat, complemented by a sleek leather purse and stylish pointy-toed leather shoes.

Hadid was joined by French Algerian model Loli Bahia on the runway.

Bahia rocked a double-breasted gray coat paired with navy blue stockings, black leather gloves, classic black loafers, stylish red sunglasses and a sleek black purse.

The collection Miu Miu displayed took a playful jab at the transition from childhood to adulthood. Miuccia Prada’s tongue-in-cheek little sister brand once again addressed profound themes through the lens of frivolity.

Cropped sleeves, rounded-toe shoes and pajamas with outerwear amid exaggeratedly shrunken proportions evoked the Tom Hanks movie “Big.” Adulthood was depicted in gloves and handbags, brooches and sharp tailoring.

Rhea Seehorn opts for Elie Saab look in Los Angeles

DUBAI/ LOS ANGELES: US actress Rhea Seehorn attended this weekend’s American Film Institute Awards Luncheon in Los Angeles in a monochrome look by Lebanese designer Elie Saab.

The “Pluribus” and “Better Call Saul” actress opted for an ankle-length daytime dress from Saab’s Pre-Fall 2025 collection that featured a sharp collar, cap sleeves and two pockets placed on the bodice.

She was dressed by celebrity stylist Jessica Paster, who regularly works with the liked of Emily Blunt and Quinta Brunson.

Other attendees at the luncheon event included Leonardo DiCaprio, Ryan Coogler, Timothee Chalamet and George Clooney.

According to The Associated Press’s Jonathan Landrum Jr., the institute celebrated the collaborative nature of film and television by honoring creative teams — in front of and behind the camera.

Inside the ballroom on Friday there were no acceptance speeches in the traditional sense and no suspense over envelopes. Instead, the AP reported, AFI’s ceremony unfolded as a series of thoughtfully written tributes: eloquent rationales for each honored film and television program, followed by brief clips designed to place the year’s work within a broader cultural and artistic context.

Films honored include “Avatar: Fire and Ash,” “Bugonia,” “Frankenstein,” “Hamnet,” “Jay Kelly,” “Marty Supreme,” “One Battle After Another,” “Sinners,” “Train Dreams” and “Wicked: For Good.”

Television shows recognized were “Adolescence,” “Andor,” “Death by Lightning,” “The Diplomat,” “The Lowdown,” “The Pitt,” “Severance,” “The Studio” and “Task.”

Closing the ceremony was US comedian and actress Carol Burnett, who delivered AFI’s annual benediction, celebrating the honorees’ achievements while reflecting on her own lifelong love of cinema and television.

“I’ve never lost the deep respect and love that I have for all the stories we tell through cinema and television and by all of those behind and in front of the camera,” Burnett said. “Creative collaboration has always remained at the heart of our work, and AFI brings us all together. The world is a better place for having heard your voices.”

The luncheon also featured AFI’s signature March of Time video montage, a sweeping look at cinematic and television milestones from decades past, situating this year’s honorees within the evolving history of the medium.
