IWC Filmmaker Awards, 2012 DIFF

Last night, Style.com Arabia covered the star studded red carpet at the Dubai International Film Festival and IWC Schaffhausen Filmmaker Award Gala Dinner and Ceremony at the One and Only Mirage Hotel. The guest of honor, Oscar-winning actress Cate Blanchett, wore a printed peplum Peter Pilotto top, Rodarte black pencil skirt, Belle Vivier Pilgrim clutch and the Epin’elle caviar rosé sandals. The Australian actress finished off her look with a Grecian inspired updo and fresh faced understated elegant makeup. The VIP evening included a number of Egyptian actors and Emirati director, Ali Mostafa. The winner of the USD$100,000 cash prize went to Iraqi Film director, editor and producer, Maysoon Pachachi.

The evening began with an outdoor sit down gala dinner under a starry sky. Nominees were announced throughout the dinner, where Actor Kevin Spacey later joined. The meal commenced with a beetroot carpaccio, followed by pumpkin ravioli, and dessert was then served at the after party where VIP guests made their way to the opposite side of the courtyard for the Bryan Ferry concert. Select guests were seated in designated private booths, while the rest of the guests danced to beats by DJ Jack E of Saint-Tropez post concert.
