Samah Mahran Brings out Four Designs at CIFF

Egypt has a unique group of fashion designers, who established their presence with their high-end collections they offer each year.

In festivals, both celebrities and fashion designers glow with unique designs and glamor, most notably of Mai Galal and Saeed Ramzy's designs.

At the opening ceremony of the Cairo International Film Festival (CIFF), four celebrities, including Bushra, Naglaa Badr, Radwa Al-Sherbeny and Tunisian Sandy showed up in designs signed by Samah Mahran.

* The Four Dresses

The dress of the actress Bushra came in a very unique and elegant look, combining two colors baby blue and silver with a metal belt, while the black leather dress of the star Naglaa Badr outlined a sexy look with a wide chest cut and long slit from the bottom of the pocket to the middle of the thigh.

As for Radwa Al Sherbini, her dress matched a princess scoop from Walt Disney's novels. The design blends three fabrics, including dantel with velvet, and tulle, as well as a wide double cloche royal train. Sandy's dress combined dantel and satin in a unique feminine design.

* Ruffled skirt Dresses

Overlapping thick ruffled dresses and the princess scoop royal train are the latest trends this season.

Mahran has been flawless in combining three fabrics with each other, including dantel, velvet, and tulle to offer us a unique, yet, simple and elegant design that fits the red carpet.

* Fashion Trends

The four designs of Mahran reflected on the fashion trends for this winter. Leather is one of the latest forms of fashion trends for this winter, not only in jackets and coats but, also in the evening dresses, exposing the curves of the feminine body.

* Leather is a huge hit this Winter

In all delightful colors, leather is the biggest hit this year, especially with the availability of good raw materials that can be fashioned in all shapes.
