It’s really no surprise that when the first ever Miss Universe UAE arrives on the red carpet in another unapologetic look at the Cannes Film Festival, heads will turn and onlookers will be gasping–true fan behaviour, tbh.
If anyone knows a thing or two about Emilia Dobreva, it’s that whenever she attends ultra-exclusive events, she’s going to shut down the red carpet in a jaw-dropping ensemble.
Back again for another year of the infamous Cannes Film Festival, the proud “wife and mama of 3” surely enough dazzled in a couture gown while dripped in the most dreamiest jewels ever.
For the grand opening ceremony, Emilia wore JoliPoli Couture, a Vietnamese brand known for its high-drama designs. Her black and white dress featured stunning pearl embellishments that was giving pure queen energy.
And becasue a little ✨drama✨ won’t hurt anyone, the gown came complete with a sweeping arm wrap. Oh, and despite the Cannes’ new rules reportedly banning large trains on the carpet, she still managed to slay (the wrap removable, btw).
As for accessories? Let’s just say it was uber-perfection. Complementing her already gorgeous outfit, she completed the red carpet look with a slew of jewellery from Iranian London-based jewellery brand Hassanzadeh.
Since making history as the UAE’s first Miss Universe, the 27-year-old (soon to be 28th this coming May 18, 2025) has been consistently making statements left and right. She recently walked the runway at Dubai Fashion Week and has been cementing herself in the world of fashion.
