DUBAI: Sofia Carson is continuing her streak of ensembles by Lebanese designer Elie Saab while promoting her latest project, “My Oxford Year,” set to hit Netflix on August 1.
Carson showed off a belted black blouse by the designer in New York this week, and she completed the outfit with a nude pencil skirt and black leather gloves.

The actress and singer is known for her affinity for Lebanese labels, and previously showed off a look by Saab in March while promoting Netflix film “The Life List.”
Carson arrived at the “CBS Mornings” show in New York City as part of that press tour wearing a green dress from Elie Saab’s Ready-to-Wear Fall/Winter 2023-2024 collection.
She also showed off several looks by the Lebanese designer during Netflix festivities in June. Ahead of Netflix Tudum 2025: The Live Event — the streaming platform’s celebration of global fandom and storytelling — Carson appeared in a white ensemble featuring a tailored blazer, wide-leg trousers and a matching shirt. On a separate occasion, she wore an all-black outfit composed of wide-leg trousers and a sheer top with cape-like sleeves. Both outfits were from Saab’s Ready-to-Wear Pre-Fall 2025 collection.
Carson’s latest film sees her star opposite Corey Mylchreest in “My Oxford Year,” a romance written by Allison Burnett and Melissa Osborne and directed by BAFTA nominee Iain Morris. T
“Iain Morris wrote and created one of the most iconic shows in British television, ‘The Inbetweeners’,” Carson, who also executive produces the movie — her second production credit following 2022’s Purple Hearts — told a Netflix blog. “Comedy is his language, so his vision of this film beautifully created a timeless, heartbreaking, sweeping romance, grounded in laughter. Within one scene you may fall madly in love, you may cry, but he will always make sure the joy of laughter is present.”
The upcoming film is, as the title suggests, set in the university town of Oxford in the UK.
“When Anna (Carson), an ambitious young American woman, sets out for the UK and the University of Oxford to fulfill a childhood dream, she’s got her life completely on track. That is, until she meets a charming and clever local Jamie (Mylchreest) who profoundly alters both of their lives,” the film’s logline reads.
