DUBAI: Montenegrin Egyptian actress and model Tara Emad took to social media on Sunday to share snippets of her recent trip to Riyadh.

Emad was in the Saudi capital to attend Riyadh Fashion Week and found time to explore the city’s food scene. She shared a video of herself dining at Somewhere restaurant before visiting Bujairi Terrace and UNESCO World Heritage Site At-Turaif. She capped off her visit with several shows at Jax B5 as part of fashion week.

Emad captioned her social media post, promoting winter in the Kingdom with the words “Saudi Winter Is Alive” emblazoned across a clip of the city’s skyline, with: “24 hours in Riyadh — from Diriyah’s charm to Fashion Week glam.”

Earlier this month, she was named among the newest inductees to The Business of Fashion 500 Class of 2025, which recognizes individuals shaping the fashion industry, alongside Saudi designer Ahmed Hassan, co-founder of streetwear label KML.

The BoF 500 is an annual index by London-based platform The Business of Fashion, founded by Imran Amed, which celebrates designers, creatives, models, executives and entrepreneurs. Each year, 100 new members are selected based on their impact, industry nominations and extensive editorial research.
