Mahira Khan has always had an enviable presence, but her recent photoshoot in Dubai took things to a new level of fancy. Styled by Maneka Harisinghani, Mahira embraced a daring yet ethereal look, with the vibrant cityscape of Dubai providing the perfect backdrop. The actor shared pictures from the shoot on her Instagram handle for which she wore the Rhinestone Embellished Sheer Fitted Gown by Michael Cinco, a Dubai-based Filipino designer who has dressed the likes of Beyoncé, Lady Gaga, and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan. Now, the Humsafar actor proudly joins their ranks.
The gown was a visiona masterpiece of shimmering rhinestones, fitted like a second skin, and yet managed to look delicate, almost fragile in the Dubai sun. The way the dress caught the light made her appear as if she was glowing. The dress itself is a bold statement, with its sheer elements adding an unexpected edge, showcasing the Superstar actor's ability to balance elegance with just the right amount of risqué.
Dubai's Cloud 22, the Private Beach at Atlantis, The Royal, and AYA Universe served as the backdrops for the shoot, emphasising both the luxury of her look and the larger-than-life energy of the city. The locations added layers to the shoot, giving the impression that Mahira wasn't just wearing the dress, but commanding an entire cityscape with her presence.
In a surprising turn, the star's accessories included a surprisingly accessible piece: a Topall-Rhinestone Sparkly Diamond Purse from Amazon, retailing at a mere $30. It's a move that brought the star's high-fashion shoot back to earth, reminding fans that while the gown may be a fantasy, parts of the look can be made a reality without breaking the bank. Honestly, it's a clever touchthere's something delightful about blending ultra-high-end couture with something anyone can own.
The makeup, true to current trends, was all about subtlety. With Huda Beauty's Faux-filter luminous matte concealer and neutral lip glosses, Mahira's beauty team opted for the ever-popular no-makeup look. The result? Her natural beauty was enhanced rather than overshadowed.
This isn't Mahira's first encounter with a Michael Cinco creation. She had previously wowed audiences in a Cinderella-like ballgown by the designer at an awards show in Dubai. Clearly, their relationship is longstanding, as the two even posed on the red carpet together.
