10 Styling Wardrobe Essentials With Egyptian Stylist Yasmine Kenawi

Having collaborated with some of the biggest names in both global and regional fashion, Egyptian celebrity stylist Yasmine Kenawi has firmly established herself as a highly sought-after figure in the fashion scene. Her impressive roster includes being an assistant stylist for Anne Hathaway, Adriana Lima, and Kate Upton—one of her most memorable celebrity projects.

In the MENA region, Kenawi’s client list features names like Salma Abu Deif, Hend Sabry, Asmaa Galal, Samira Said, Jamila Awad, and Nour. Her recent high-profile work includes curating stunning bridal looks for Erika Hammond’s destination wedding in Egypt and, most recently, styling Amira Adeeb for her music video, ‘Kart Ma7roo2.’

For the debut of Scene Styled’s ‘Scene Selects’ series, we tapped into Yasmine Kenawi’s expertise to discover her top styling wardrobe essentials. From classic frames to experimental heels, here’s everything Kenawi deems indispensable when getting down to business…

90s Sunglasses | Prada

A timeless frame with a classic silhouette, Prada’s '90s-inspired sunglasses are versatile enough for any occasion, making them a staple in Kenawi’s essentials list.

Leather Trimmed Basket Tote | Loewe

Blending functionality with style, Loewe’s leather-trimmed basket tote effortlessly shifts from casual days to more upscale encounters, earning its spot in Kenawi’s summer styling wardrobe.

TAN-GO Platform Pumps | Valentino

Valentino’s TAN-GO platform pumps make a bold statement without overwhelming, aligning perfectly with Kenawi's core aesthetic.

Shapewear | Skims

The ultimate foundation for sleek, sculpted silhouettes, Skims is a staple brand myriad stylists rely on, including Kenawi.

Black Maxi Dress With Rhinestone Jewellery | Sandro

Sandro’s black maxi dress, with its sleeveless rib knit design, asymmetric front slit, and rhinestone embellishments, was recently selected by Kenawi to style Egyptian actress Asmaa Galal. According to Kenawi, there's nothing more essential than a ‘tight-fitted black dress.’ 

Crystal-Embellished Suede Sandals | René Caovilla

With their understated sparkle and luxurious feel, it’s no wonder René Caovilla’s sandal heels are an essential in Kenawi’s styling wardrobe, and according to Kenawi herself, “they’re comfy.”

Silver & Gold Hoops | Yaz Designs

Silver and gold hoops are a timeless choice, effortlessly versatile and always in style. It's no surprise they’re a staple in Kenawi's styling wardrobe. 

Jumpsuits | Elisabetta Franchi

Elisabetta Franchi's jumpsuits are a chic, one-and-done outfit solution in Kenawi's styling wardrobe, elevating any look with sleek sophistication. "I just love Elisabetta Franchi fits," Kenawi tells Scene Styled.

The NY Yankees Cap | New Era Cap

A timeless streetwear staple, the NY Yankees Cap by New Era Cap is Kenawi's go-to for effortlessly cool, casual vibes.

Dunk Sneakers | Nike

You just can’t have a Yankees cap without a pair of complementary Nike Dunks. Another casual staple, for Kenawi, the Dunks are a streetwear classic.
