Estee Lauder beauty brand has ventured into the realm of high fashion through a collaboration with the acclaimed Indian designer, Sabyasachi Mukherjee, for the unveiling of a new lipstick line. Adding to the allure, the Dutch-Moroccan-Egyptian model, Imaan Hammam, serves as the face of this campaign. The merging of these two worlds was celebrated in style in New York City, where celebrities including Amy Fine Collins, Kate Young, and Karlie Kloss graced the event.
Hammam looked stunning at the premiere, wearing a stylish mini floral dress with black, white, and green accents complemented by black tights and heels. Her half updo perfectly framed her striking makeup look that included sharp black eyeliner for added drama.

Expressing her elation on Instagram, Hammam lauded the collaboration as a "dream," extending gratitude to both Estee Lauder and Mukherjee. The matte lipsticks, with names like Calcutta Red and Rouge Bengal, draw inspiration from the vivid color palette of India. Encased in packaging embellished with Sabyasachi's signature Tiger medallion crafted from 24-karat gold, each lipstick exudes luxury and artistry.
Hammam's appointment as the global ambassador for Estee Lauder in May 2023 marked a significant milestone in her career. She expressed her honor and excitement, promising followers a glimpse into the remarkable journey ahead. Reflecting on her role, Hammam emphasized the opportunity to empower girls worldwide, particularly as a woman of Moroccan-Egyptian descent, aligning with Estee Lauder's commitment to diversity and women's empowerment in the beauty industry.
Hammam's stature as one of the most sought-after models is undisputed, having graced the runways of prestigious fashion houses such as Burberry, Fendi, and Prada, among others. Her portfolio boasts international campaigns for esteemed brands like Celine, Chanel, Versace, Givenchy, Giorgio Armani, and Tiffany & Co., solidifying her status as a prominent figure in the fashion and beauty landscape.
