DUBAI: Saudi actress and singer Aseel Omran has nabbed a starring role in a Dior campaign.
The Alkhobar-born star, who was named the first Middle East ambassador for the French luxury label, shared on Wednesday a new advert for Dior Beauty’s latest scent, Gris Dior.
The new fragrance is part of the label’s “La Collection Privee,” which Omran is the face of.
When sharing the campaign video with her 6.3 million followers, the star chose to quote the late French luxury designer Christian Dior who said: “Perfume is the indispensable complement to the personality of women, the finishing touch on a dress.”
The actress was announced as a Dior ambassador in March.
“I’m proud to share with you a partnership that is dear to my heart. Today, I’m officially the first @dior ambassador in the Middle East and I cannot begin to express my excitement level,” she told her followers at the time.
“Dior is a brand I was genuinely a big fan of growing up. I can’t wait to show you what the rest of the year holds,” she added.
Songstress Omran rose to fame following her participation in reality TV shows “Gulf Stars” and “Hiya wa Huwa.”
The 32-year-old musician and fashion star has partnered with other international brands such as cosmetics company L’Oreal Paris and Italian luxury fashion house Bulgari.
She is also known for her roles in TV shows including Netflix’s “Black Crows,” “Qabel Lil Kaser,” “Harun Al-Rashid,” and “Akoun Aw La.
Her first album “Khajlanah” was released in 2007, followed by a second “Allah Yhannini” the next year, and a third “Mo Bessahel” in 2011.
Omran is not the only star who was recently tapped by an international label.
Last month, Lebanese actress Nadine Nassib Njeim was announced the face of Carolina Herrera’s Good Girl Midnight fragrance, a new perfume that the US luxury label released exclusively for the Middle East.
