DUBAI: US Dutch Palestinian supermodel Gigi Hadid walked the Miu Miu runway during Paris Fashion Week wearing a mix of classic tailoring and modern styling with a vintage edge.Ìę

She donned a charcoal, double-breasted coat-dress with a structured, oversized silhouette. The look was completed with a 1920s-inspired hat that ties under the chin.Ìę

The outfit was further styled with dangling gold earrings, knee-high scrunched socks in a muted olive tone and brown leather loafers.Ìę

At Miu Miu, the little sister brand of Miuccia Prada, the feminine was not just celebrated — it was deconstructed, reconfigured and worn with a wink.

Silhouettes floated around the body rather than adhering to it, sculpted through folds, drapes, and engineered curves. Bras, no longer hidden, became garments in their own right.Ìę

Tailoring slouched off the shoulders, and fur stoles, brooches and heavy bracelets turned the everyday into something significant, a reminder that femininity — soft or sharp — is always a force.

Besides Hadid, Prada, known for casting both models and Hollywood stars, sent a mix of familiar faces and first-time muses down the runway — Raffey Cassidy and Sarah Paulson — blurring the line between fashion and film with every step.

Meanwhile, Hadid made headlines this week, opening up about her relationship with ex-partner Zayn Malik.

Now, years after their six-year, on-and-off relationship ended, their priority remains co-parenting their four-year-old daughter, Khai.

“Zayn and I do our custody schedules months in advance,” the supermodel said in an interview with Vogue. “That doesn’t mean that it doesn’t change here and there, but we help each other out and have each other’s backs.”

Hadid said that she and Malik have found a way to manage public perceptions of their past together.

“There is the hard part of the world knowingÌęthis much,Ìęand thinking they know everything,” the model said. “And at the end of the day, we’re not interested in giving everyone our whole story.

“What we are interested in is raising our daughter together,” she added. “With so much respect for each other, and not just as co-­parents, but what we’ve been through together.”

JEDDAH: British Indian filmmaker Rowan Athale’s “Giant,” the boxing biopic starring Amir El-Masry and Pierce Brosnan, is set to open the fifth edition of the Red Sea International Film Festival.

The festival held a press conference on Nov. 4 at Culture Square in Al-Balad to announce the lineup and major highlights of the event, which takes place from Dec. 4-13.

Returning with the theme “For the Love of Cinema,” this year’s edition promises more than 100 films from șÚÁÏÉçÇű, the Arab world, Asia and Africa, alongside exclusive screenings, industry initiatives and a renewed focus on women filmmakers and global collaborations.

Faisal Baltyuor, the CEO of the Red Sea Film Foundation, said: “Every year our priority is to connect with the public and inspire the next generation of filmmakers. This year we’ve introduced a dedicated space where filmmakers can meet audiences, along with a special area for children to experience cinema.

“The festival’s slogan truly reflects its foundation, nurturing passion and creativity from an early age. Through our new program, Rising Talents — The Voices of Tomorrow, we’re empowering young storytellers aged 10-16 across regions like Jazan, Makkah, Qassim and others. We’ve already received remarkable films, and it’s inspiring to see such quality and vision emerging from across the Kingdom.”

Shivani Pandya Malhotra, managing director of the RSIFF, expressed pride in the festival’s growth and impact, particularly through the Red Sea Souk, and said: “We’re really proud of what we’ve built in the market. The souk is now prominent regionally and globally. This year we have 15 films supported by the Red Sea Fund, with six official submissions for the Academy Awards. We’re also showcasing 37 women filmmakers from France to Taiwan and Palestine to Kenya, reflecting true diversity.”

She added that the souk was involved in 40 projects in development and production, and eight series in collaboration with Film Independent.

Fionnuala Halligan, director of international programs at the Red Sea Film Foundation, and who has joined the festival team for the first time this year, described the lineup as rich and wide-ranging.

She added: “This is a festival for everyone; it’s really inclusive. From films for families and children to mature themes, the lineup represents a global cinematic conversation.”

Among the key announcements, the RSIFF revealed its newly updated Red Sea Film Festival app, offering a seamless, eco-friendly digital experience.

The Arab Spectacular program will feature regional titles including “Palestine 36” by Annemarie Jacir; Haifaa Al-Mansour’s “Unidentified”; and “A Matter of Life and Death” by Anas Ba-Tahaf.

The International Spectacular will present global premieres such as “Couture” starring Angelina Jolie, “The Wizard of the Kremlin,” “Scarlet,” “Farruquito — A Flamenco Dynasty,” and “Desert Warrior,” which was filmed in șÚÁÏÉçÇű.
