DUBAI: Imaan Hammam turned 24 this week and she certainly had a lot to celebrate. The Moroccan-Egyptian-Dutch model, who opened for a Givenchy runway show at just 17-years-old and landed her first Vogue cover before turning 18, has accomplished more in the last three years than many models achieve during their entire career. For the latest updates, follow us on Instagram @arabnews.lifestyle The newly minted 24-year-old, who was born to a Moroccan mother and an Egyptian father in the Netherlands, kicked off her birthday with a trip to Disneyland Paris with her closest friends, fellow models Cindy Bruna and Ophelie Guillermand, and her younger sister Aisha. For the occasion, Hammam opted for a burgundy, leather trench coat with a waist-tie, accessorized with a pair of white sneakers and a medical facemask. She later switched to a silky, plunging pink blouse tucked into a leather, asymmetric mini skirt and paired the look with black pointed-toe pumps to continue the fun at a candlelit dinner at Italian restaurant Giuse Trattoria attended by her close friends, who didn’t hesitate to document the fun on their respective Instagram Stories.

A coat of mascara and nude lips completed the look. Naturally, our social media feeds were flooded with thoughtful birthday tributes for Hammam from her loved ones.

US Designers Zac Posen and Brandon Maxwell posted heartfelt tributes for the model too. Maxwell shared a runway photo of Hammam at one of his past shows and wrote: “Happy birthday @imaanhammam. I love you! You deserve the best!” Belgian model Rose Bertram wrote “Happy birthday babes! You little ray of sunshine,” alongside a sweet candid of the friends mid-embrace. Lebanese designer Eli Mizrahi also took to Instagram Stories to share his own heartfelt message. “Happiest birthday to one of my favorite people ever,” he wrote, adding, “Enjoy your day! Love you!”
