Al-Zuhair, born in Paris to a French mother and Saudi father, has made her mark on the fashion world and appeared on the runway for an array of renowned fashion houses such as Missoni, Maison Alaia, Brunello Cucinelli, Balmain, Dolce & Gabbana, Giambattista Valli, Giorgio Armani, Elie Saab and many more.
In addition to her runway appearances, Al-Zuhair has featured in campaigns for high-profile brands such as Prada, Chanel and Carolina Herrera.
Al-Zuhair returned to the runway in May when she walked in Louis Vuitton's high jewelry collection show, held at Bellver Castle on the island of Majorca, Spain.
The show marked her return to the runway after she hit the catwalk at the amfAR gala in Cannes in May, before which she walked for Australian label Zimmermann at Paris Fashion Week in March.
For Louis Vuitton, the model wore a strapless white gown featuring a fitted bodice and a soft, flowing skirt. The dress was detailed with cascading ruffles outlined in dark trim, which ran down the front and sides.
She also made a statement at the Zimmermann show wearing a burnt-orange ensemble. The sleeveless, fitted dress featured draped, ruched detailing that added movement to the design. The look was finished off with strappy brown leather sandals and gold accessories, including chandelier earrings and bracelets.
In late May, Al-Zuhair also reflected on her recent campaign with Balmain, sharing photos from the Resort 2025 collection shoot. 'Had so much fun shooting inside the Eiffel Tower herself!' she wrote in the caption.
It was not Al-Zuhair's first collaboration with Balmain. She previously walked for the brand during Paris Fashion Week in September.

Where We Are Going Today: Labash – Egyptian restaurant in Riyadh
We recently visited Labash, a popular Egyptian restaurant in Riyadh known for its casual, no-plate dining style — serving food directly on the table for a fun and interactive experience. The menu featured a variety of options like skewer-grilled chicken, beef skewers, and crispy chicken strips. One standout was The Works, which includes unlimited fries, drinks, pickles, and bread. While ideal for groups, orders at the table lead to excessive portions and higher costs. We tried the zinger meal with fries and drinks. It was flavorful and filling, though prices were on the high side. Seven different sauces added depth to each dish, but the quality of the meat did not fully justify the cost, especially compared to similar offerings elsewhere. Service was decent, and the lively atmosphere added to the appeal — though the noise level may deter those seeking a quieter setting. One downside was the amount of food wasted, both at our table and others. This highlighted the need for portion control or alternative serving options to reduce waste.
