Introducing #VogueArabia’s July/August cover stars, leading actors #AminaKhalil and #HandeErçel. In a world that seems increasingly divided, this issue celebrates culture as a bridge for understanding. Since 2008, when the first Turkish series was dubbed to Arabic, the region has witnessed the proximity between the two cultures, anchored by passionate stories and strong values. In this issue, Khalil and Erçel also delve into the role of women in film, the gender pay gap, and the link between the two industries. Also in our latest edition, Amal Maher makes a triumphant comeback after a four-year hiatus from stage, and we meet 31-year-old Emirati horse rider Fatima Al Bluoshi, who is part of the new Para Dressage Performance Programme launched by The Royal Stables in Abu Dhabi, as part of its efforts to build a team for the 2028 Paralympic Games in Los Angeles.

Cover 1 of 3. على غلاف عدد يوليو/أغسطس من مجلة ڤوغ العربية، تتألق الممثلتان أمينة خليل وهاندي أرتشيل. في عالمٍ يزداد انقسامًا، يؤكد هذا العدد على قدرة الثقافة على الجمع بيننا. فمنذ عام 2008، ومع دبلجة أول مسلسل تركي إلى العربية، شهدت المنطقة تقاربًا ثقافيًا لافتًا، متجذرًا في قصصٍ عاطفية وقيمٍ راسخة. تتعمق أمينة خليل وهاندي أرتشيل في هذا العدد في قضايا محورية مثل دور المرأة في السينما، فجوة الأجور بين الجنسين، والروابط بين الصناعتين. كما يتضمن العدد أيضًا عودة آمال ماهر إلى الساحة الفنية بعد غياب دام أربع سنوات، ولقاءً ملهمًا مع الفارسة الإماراتية فاطمة البلوشي، البالغة من العمر 31 عامًا، لتتحدث عن مشاركتها في برنامج أداء ترويض الخيل البارالمبي الجديد الذي أطلقته الإسطبلات الملكية في أبوظبي، ضمن جهودها لتشكيل فريق لدورة الألعاب البارالمبية 2028 في لوس أنجلوس. انقر/ي على الرابط في البايو للإطلاع على تفاصيل عددنا المقبل. الغلاف 1 من 3.

On the most important day of her life, #AminaKhalil stepped into her forever, surrounded by towering palms and a sea of white. For this deeply personal celebration, she wears a custom creation by Maison Yeya: a modern interpretation of a timeless princess silhouette. Designed by Yasmine Yeya, the gown sculpted her figure before cascading into voluminous layers of triple silk gazar, delicately embroidered at the hem. Captured exclusively for Vogue Arabia, the first glimpse of an Egyptian actress revealing a modern bridal vision. في أهم يومٍ في حياتها، أطلت أمينة خليل كحلمٍ محاطةً بسحر النخيل الباسق ونقاء الأبيض الناصع. لحفلها زفافها، تألقت أمينة بفستان من “ميزون يحيى”، صُمم خصيصًا ليجعل منها أميرةً عصريةً خالدة. احتضن الفستان، الذي أبدعت ياسمين يحيى بتصميمه، قوامها قبل أن يتدفق على طبقاتٍ شاسعة من الغازار الحريري، مطرزًا بدقةٍ عند الأطراف. وفي صورٍ حصرية لمجلة ڤوغ العربية، تلوح أول لمحةٍ لممثلةٍ مصريةٍ تكشف رؤيةٍ عصريةٍ لفساتين الزفاف.
