Turkish actress Hande Ercel turned heads at the first Vogue Arabia Ball in Dubai, arriving in a black gown embroidered with flowers and trimmed with feathers.
Ercel, who also appeared in the event’s promotional film, wore an off-the-shoulder design with a full skirt and a long train. She paired it with a tight bun and a dark-stoned necklace.
The inaugural Vogue Arabia Ball, titled the Art Edition, was held Friday at the Delano Dubai in the Bluewaters district. The evening brought together figures from fashion, art and entertainment.
Ercel’s connection to the event began before the night itself. Vogue Arabia released a campaign film called "Art Is All Around Us" in late October.
It was shot at AYA Universe, a digital art center in Dubai, and directed by Lynn Morkos. In the film, Ercel moves through digital installations where lights, colors and reflections shift around her. Its visual style gave audiences a preview of the ball’s focus on art before the evening began.
Speaking to Vogue Arabia about the idea behind the campaign, the Turkish star said art can be found in everyday life. In her view, the way we live, what we feel and how we connect with our surroundings all shape our relationship with art.
