DUBAI: A handful of Arab celebrities have been spotted at the 75th Cannes Film Festival since organizers rolled out the red carpet on May 17. 

As the festival comes to an end, the red carpet played host to two more stars from the region: Egyptian actress Mona Zaki and Saudi singer, TV presenter and actress Aseel Omran.

The stars attended the screening of French screenwriter Leonor Serraille’s second feature, “Mother And Son (Un Petit Frere),” championing celebrity-loved Arab designers.

Zaki stepped out wearing a form-fitting black gown from Lebanese designer Georges Hobeika’s fall/winter 2022-2023 collection. The dress, with a low back, featured geometric crystal detailing. 

Omran, the Khobar-born star, opted for a fully embroidered dress from US superstar Jennifer Lopez’s favorite designer Zuhair Murad.  

The blue floor-length flowing dress is off-the-shoulder and featured feather-detailing.

The stars are both brand ambassadors for the cosmetics company L’Oreal Paris, which they were representing at the film festival. 

“So excited to be @festivaldecannes with @lorealparis,” wrote Zaki to her 7.4 million followers. 

In March, Omran was named as the first Middle East ambassador for French luxury label Dior.
