The “Where Is My Huband” singer turned to the Lebanese designer’s fall 2027 couture collection for her attire. Raye’s dress featured a sheer material base, which was wholly encrusted with glittering gems and tear drop pearls.
An update on sleek, sensual club-crooner style, the halter dress’ silhouette included a scoop neckline with a draped bust and a line of tear drop pearls. A cinched waist gave the dress added silhouette definition, while the back of the skirt included a vent for ease of movement.

Swirls of silver embellishments were the dominating motif, along with the pearls. As for accessories, Raye wore Angara jewels, including the bezel-set pear aquamarine leverback drop earrings, with 2.4 carats of aquamarine set in platinum, along with the Art Deco-inspired graduated diamond anniversary band, with one carat of diamonds set in 14K white gold.
While her sparkling dress certainly elevated her usual retro-inspired style, Raye’s glam was wholly ’60s. The singer’s voluminous hair featured tight ringlets and curls, while her makeup included a bold brow and deep red lip. Stylist Eniola Dare curated Raye’s look.
