While in Dubai to celebrate the opening of Chopard’s Dubai Mall boutique, Bella Hadid went for gold in an archival Elie Saab couture dress.

Last night, all eyes were on Dubai Mall where Palestinian-Dutch supermodel Bella Hadid made an appearance at Chopard’s newly reopened boutique. Hadid was all smiles as she cut the ribbon to inaugurate the store in front of an increasingly large crowd of people gathering to catch a glimpse of the 28-year-old. While she stepped out in a black vintage Mugler number at the boutique’s opening, Hadid slipped into archival couture by Elie Saab for the celebration later in the night. The special pieces completing both looks? Glimmering jewelry from Chopard’s Ice Cube collection.
Hadid’s second look for her night out in Dubai paid homage to the region in more than one, subtle way. Picked from the Lebanese designer’s Fall 2004 couture collection, the sequin-covered gown came in a burnt gold hue, and was reminiscent of Dubai’s famed gold souks and the city’s love for dressing everything up in the precious metal. Its light and billowing fabric wasn’t too dissimilar from that of a kaftan, while still aligning with Hadid’s style, as witnessed on her many headline-making Cannes Film Festival red carpet appearances.
The model also invited Vogue Arabia to her hotel room as she got ready for the big night, giving her fans a peek into her beauty routine. Alongside her decision to debut a thick set of bangs, Hadid shared the collective process of choosing her glam with fellow Palestinian makeup artist Nadia Tayeh, and how she uses her Orebella Window2Soul fragrance to bring it all together.
At the celebration, Hadid was joined by Chopard’s artistic director and co-president Caroline Scheufele, beauty mogul Huda Kattan, and many more beloved names from the region.
