Egyptian-Lebanese Model Sabrina Khaled Masters Minimalism After Dark

This is how to look like a princess every day, and with minimal effort. Aug 08, 2025 Egyptian-Lebanese model Sabrina Khaled has a knack for dressing minimally without losing any of the impact. Her style - what she calls 'elevated casual chic' - is rooted in family. Fashion entered her life early, shaped by the people closest to her and the places they took her. 'My mum is my anchor, my backbone, my style icon and critic,' Khaled tells SceneStyled. 'I look up to her - she gave me space to experiment growing up. And she always rocked a suit - because she needed to. I think that's where my love of power dressing comes from.' Her late father, she says, introduced her to fashion as a form of culture. 'He was my fashion and travel connoisseur. From a young age, we'd go on yearly shopping trips across Europe. He taught me everything I know about haute couture in Milan and Paris.' For this edition of SceneStyled Selects, Khaled curates a wardrobe of pieces she'd wear from a mix of regional and global labels - minimal, considered, and entirely her own. LOOK 1: WEDDING GUEST - REFINED GLAMOUR 'When choosing dresses for weddings,' tells us Khaled, 'I always strive for a unique yet classic look. This Nafsika dress has long been on my radar, with the drop waist hemline and balloon skirt with subtle flower details that add a feminine touch on such a dark background. Pairing it with my personal jewelry from Imad Baadarani makes the outfit complete.'

I believe that having at least one good suit in your wardrobe is essential, to say the least. Adding a masculine touch has always been my strong suit (pun intended) when playing dress-up - it gives me a boost of flair!' The Row | Azul wool suit - styled with nothing underneath.

Mixing and matching fabrics, prints, and cuts are crucial when elevating a simple look. You can pair this asymmetrical skirt with a simple white tee, sneakers, and a cool pair of sunnies for a more casual setting! Pairing this look with animal print heels is the cherry on top! I love chunky jewellery, and I have been eyeing Okhtein's collection for a long time now - I love their pieces so much.'

This Vanina bustier can be styled up or down, depening on the occasion. Usually, I would style it with a pair of straight-cut jeans and mules fora day event, but for an evening affair, pairing it with cigarette tuxedo trousers fits better. I also paired it with my all-time favourite grungy flats from Miu Miu for a comfortable night out - and layers of mixed metal accessories. I think mixing metals is KING!'

I love organza, it's such a resilient yet malleable fabric, and it comes in so many forms. I'm pairing these iconic mesh pants with an oversized sweater for more coverage. I'm styling this look with an elevated fashion-forward Simone Rocha sneaker - and more mixed metals.'
