Christina Mourad Saab steals the show at the amfAR gala

Christina Mourad Saab, wife of Elie Saab Jr., dazzled on the red carpet wearing an Elie Saab Haute Couture Spring/Summer 2024 gown. The halter-neck gown, complete with a deep V-neck, was embroidered entirely with luxurious crystal sequins and pearls, showcasing her slender figure in a distinctive style that caught everyone's attention.

Striking elegance by Elie Saab

Christina chose to complete her appearance with a voluminous, wavy hairstyle that highlighted her beautiful blonde hair, along with subtle makeup that highlighted her captivating eyes and radiant smile. This look cemented her presence as a fashion icon at global events, combining luxury and sophistication with a strikingly feminine style that made her the talk of the press and the public.

The same dress at Cannes with Eva Longoria

Remarkably, this distinctive design was previously worn by international actress Eva Longoria during her attendance at the 2024 Cannes Film Festival. Longoria coordinated the dress with silver high-heeled sandals from Santoni, and opted for neutral makeup and free-flowing hair, confirming that Elie Saab's designs are capable of highlighting a woman's appeal wherever she may be, and in a different style for every person who wears them.

Fashion, art and charity in one evening

The event wasn't limited to fashion shows and celebrity appearances; it also featured the unveiling of an artistic collaboration between Elie Saab and BMW Austria to launch a unique edition of the MINI Cooper S, featuring luxurious metallic shades of liquid copper, bronze, and nude. This masterpiece will be auctioned for charity, with proceeds benefiting the American Foundation for AIDS Research, embodying a beautiful integration of fashion, innovation, and philanthropy.
