Ella Balinska Wore Georges Hobeika Couture To The ‘F1: The Movie’ New York Premiere

As a self-proclaimed F1 mega fan, it felt only right that Ella Balinska would be on hand for the F1: The Movie world premiere, held in Times Square on Monday evening.

And just like the high-speed world she’s so fond of, Ella didn’t slow down on the glamour.

While cut-outs often cue a predictable game of Mugler or Mônot, Ella veered off track in a Georges Hobeika Spring 2024 Couture gown that delivered something altogether fresher.

The black high-neck, long-sleeved silhouette was punctuated with striking embellishments and precise cut-outs that felt sultry but still sophisticated—no small feat. It’s a side of Hobeika we don’t see often, as the Lebanese designer is usually more synonymous with fairytale gowns, but this had edge, allure, and just the right amount of attitude.

On anyone else, it might’ve teetered into trying-too-hard territory, but Ella’s statuesque frame and innate poise brought it to life beautifully.

The look was styled with black pumps, diamond jewels and a sleek low bun.

Stylist: Jason Rembert.
