Sandra Shehab partners with fine jewelry label

- Arab News Dubai

US Egyptian model Sandra Shehab took to social media this week to partner with US jewelry label David Yurman to promote the label’s Sculped Cable collection.

“My @davidyurma­n pieces always elevate the look,” the model captioned a short video, in which she can be seen trying on a set of the fine jewelry label's signature creations. The Sculpted Cable collection is a play on the jewelry house's signature cable motif. The updated version transforms the original twisted helix into a carved relief.

Founded in 1980 by David and Sybil Yurman, the jewelry house's signature motif was created not long after. According to the brand's website, David shaped 50 feet of gold wire into the first Cable design, with pink tourmaline and emerald end caps, in 1982. The twisted motif became a calling card for the brand, so much so that David described it as “the river that runs through all of our designs,” in a previously released statement.

In her post, Shehab shows off a pair of Sculped Cable bangles, including one bangle boasting hand-set pavé diamonds, as well as a pair of rings and earrings.

The New Jersey native came into the limelight in 2018 after appearing in Season 24 of “America's Next Top Model.” Although she was eliminated in episode eight, coming in 8th place, she scored fans on social media for her portrayal of Muslim women on screen.

"I feel I represente­d my community pretty well. I wanted to show Muslim girls that they can do whatever they want. I hope they see that," Shehab said as she left the show.

The star is now spotted at fashion weeks around the world and has worked with numerous brands on social media.

Shehab attended Lebanese designer Elie Saab's Fall/Winter ready-to-wear 2024-25 collection showcase at Paris Fashion Week in March and was in good company. The model was spotted in the crowd alongside influencer­s Olivia Palermo, Nathalie Fanj and Tamara Kalinic.

Shehab is also no stranger to the world of jewelry — her sister Amy is a fine jewelry designer and founded an eponymous label that has branched out into handbags and accessorie­s.
