When fashion meets art, the possibilities are endless, and the inaugural Vogue Arabia Ball 2026 was certainly no exception. Held on November 13 at Delano Dubai, Bluewaters, the highly anticipated Art Edition brought together some of the region’s most celebrated names in fashion, film, music, and culture for an unforgettable evening dedicated to unity through art and fashion, with a special focus on the female gaze. Naturally, the red carpet became a canvas for extraordinary creativity, as guests embraced the theme through sculptural silhouettes, intricate craftsmanship, and artistic references. From host Azza Slimene‘s custom Rami Kadi gown inspired by Vincent van Gogh’s The Starry Night to Karess Bashar‘s meaningful Elias Riga creation paying tribute to Syrian resilience, and Balqees Fathi’s dramatic feathered Krikor Jabotian ensemble, the evening was a celebration of fashion as an art form in its own right. With Arab designers taking centre stage alongside international fashion houses, the red carpet delivered no shortage of memorable moments.
