DUBAI: British actress Emily Blunt this week attended the Clooney Foundation for Justice’s Albie Awards in a hot red dress by Lebanese designer Zuhair Murad.
Blunt wore a flow-length gown with heart pocket details, accessorized with glitzy gold jewelry and a sparkly red clutch.
She posed for pictures on the gold carpet with her husband John Krasinski.
This was the second annual ceremony hosted by the foundation which was founded by lawyer Amal Clooney and her actor husband George.
Amal attended the event, which took place at the New York Public Library, in a white Versace gown covered in crystals.
The guests in attendance included Anne Hathaway, Julianne Moore, Andra Day, Julianna Margulies, Cindy Crawford, MJ Rodriguez, Charlotte Tilbury, Donatella Versace, Jodie Turner-Smith and Heidi Klum, who wore a fully embellished figure-hugging gown by Lebanese-Italian designer Tony Ward.
The event is named after South African lawyer, activist, writer and former chief justice Albie Sachs, who spent much of his life “defending people charged under racist statutes and repressive security laws.”
The event honor individuals who, at great personal risk, have devoted their lives to justice for the most vulnerable.
