Award season 2025 has well and truly kicked off with the 82nd Golden Globe awards in Los Angeles.

If you know fashion, then you know that a true red carpet moment isn’t complete without a touch of Arab influence.

Riyadh-based TV host, MC and film enthusiast Ajwa Aljoudi dazzled the red carpet last night in this beautifully elegant dress by Saudi brand Khawla Alaiban.

Ajwa was styled by Rawan Kattoa, fashion entrepreneur and stylist based in Saudi. This isn’t her first rodeo on a red carpet, Ajwa was sure to showcase Saudi fashion recently at the Emmy Awards in a look by Saudi designer Eman Alajlan.

Despite being across the world in the city of angels, Ajwa made sure to get her nails did by her local nail technician, Crazynails.sa, a home manicure service in Riyadh. Scrolling through their IG feed gives us all the classy nail inspo we need for 2025.

We also spotted Lebanese presenter Raya Abirached adding a touch of Hollywood glamour to the red carpet in this effortlessly stunning gown by Marmar Halim, which you can actually shop at Dubai Design District!

Raya was styled by fashion duo and sisters Maissa and Sahar Azab. She looks incredible!
