Arab designers shine on Globes red carpet

Hollywood’s A-listers basked in the afternoon sun as they strode up the red carpet in Los Angeles for Sunday’s Golden Globes ceremony. And making them stand out were none other than beautiful couture gowns created by famous Arab fashion designers.
Pink was definitely one of the colors of the night.
Lily Collins — nominated for her work on Warren Beatty’s “Rules Don’t Apply” — looked like a princess in a lacy sweeping Zuhair Murad gown with cap sleeves.
While she was living the fairytale, there was no shortage of racy looks — including Jessica Biel.
All eyes were fixed on the mother-of-one as she sashayed the red carpet in an Elie Saab gown, as husband Justin Timberlake looked on proudly.
Actress and model Emily Ratajkowski shimmered on the red carpet in a golden Reem Acra creation as did actress Kristen Wiig in a sheer white lace gown by the same designer.
Actress Olivia Culpo was a picture of elegance in a Zuhair Murad gown. Others who donned the Lebanese designer’s creations include Tracee Ellis Ross who won best actress in a comedy TV series for her role in “Black-ish,” and Spanish model and actress Elsa Pataky.
Emma Stone, who took home the best actress in a comedy/musical for the whimsical “La La Land,” donned a sleeveless pale pink Valentino gown with glittering silver star accents.
On her arm? Her brother.
Two young actresses went for pink Gucci: “Rogue One” star Felicity Jones looked lovely in a pastel gown with black and silver detailing, while Zoe Saldana chose a ruffled two-tone frock with a sweet bow at the waist. A few of Hollywood’s top stars showed that the red carpet is about more than gowns.
“American Crime” nominee Felicity Huffman, who sported a sleeveless Georges Chakra jumpsuit with a gold and silver bodice and white trousers, said she wore it in honor of Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.
Nicole Kidman, nominated for her work on “Lion,” earned mixed reviews for her barely-there silvery sequined and embroidered Alexander McQueen gown with bare shoulders and draped sleeves ending in long frilly cuffs.
