Master Of Light, 30 Years of Georges Hobeika

Editorial Content Strategy · Real-Time Social Production ·



Overview

To celebrate 30 years of Georges Hobeika, Harper’s Bazaar Arabia hosted an exclusive event at Studio 152. I was brought on to lead the Bazaar content plan strategy and execute live event coverage across social platforms.


My Role

1. Content Strategy & Planning
I developed a tailored content plan designed to:

  • Position Bazaar at the center of the cultural moment

  • Balance heritage storytelling with real-time social relevance

  • Maximise reach across Instagram (feed, reels, stories)

  • Create layered content: hero moments, designer insights, guest arrivals, detail shots

The strategy focused on elevating the anniversary beyond a standard event recap — framing it as a milestone in regional couture history.

2. Live Content Capture & Publishing
On-site, I:

  • Shot and edited live video content

  • Captured key dinner and exhibition moments

  • Published in real time across stories and reels

  • Balanced speed with brand tone and visual consistency

This ensured Bazaar owned the digital conversation as the event unfolded, rather than reporting retrospectively.


Strategic Approach

  • Editorial-first social: Treated social as a live extension of the magazine’s authority

  • Luxury pacing: Curated, intentional storytelling

  • Cultural framing: Positioned Hobeika’s 30-year milestone within regional fashion legacy

  • Multi-format output: Reels for reach, stories for immersion, feed for longevity


Outcome

  • Elevated real-time engagement during the event window

  • Strengthened Bazaar’s authority within regional luxury fashion

  • Created evergreen video assets extending beyond the event night

  • Reinforced the publication’s role as both media authority and cultural documentarian
