The fashion industry has thankfully embraced greater diversity recently, spotlighting an increasing number of models from Middle Eastern, North African, and Asian backgrounds. This shift demolishes the myth of a singular beauty standard, as these remarkable new faces demonstrate. With Men’s Fashion Week just around the corner in January, followed by the Womenswear shows in February, these are the most exciting Arab models right now to look out for in 2025.
