Faten Hamama is a name that needs no introduction. A legendary actress in Egyptian cinema, she brought complexity and realism to roles in films like Afwah we Araneb, Doaa Al Karawan, and La Anam. But beyond her acting, her style also made a lasting impression—especially at the 18th Cannes Film Festival in 1965.


At the screening of her thriller Al-Haram, nominated for the prestigious Prix International Award, Hamama marked the occasion with elegance. Wearing a sleeveless, floor-length black dress by acclaimed director and costume designer Shadi Abdel Salam, she embodied a minimalist silhouette with subtle nods to ancient Egyptian civilization.

Accentuated by an elegant updo, she completed the look with a bold, Pharaonic-inspired necklace that draped across her bodice, showcasing intricate, layered patterns characteristic of ancient Egyptian design. Matching earrings crafted from the same beads completed the ensemble, tying together a look that effortlessly stole the spotlight.
