Lara Tabet

TV Presenter

Influencer

How did you start your professional career on TV?

I started my career on TV when I was approached by the First English TV Channel that was setting up in Dubai in 2003. I was invited to do a casting and eventhough I did not have any formal training in media, I was offered a role that became quite exciting as I had an opportunity to be involved with seven different shows over time and one of them was a daily live program with two other ladies.

Are you planning any other TV projects?

Yes, I do have a few projects in the pipeline. I freelance with several TV stations in the region and there is always something happening. However, I am selective about the events that I cover.

Some of my favourite events include the Dubai World Cup, Formula One, Dubai Film Festival, The Arab Fashion Week amongst others.

Would you like to try yourself as an actress?

In fact I have been approached several times to act in movies, reality TV shows and other ideas, however none of those ultimately materialized and in some cases I am pleased that I did not participate as the outcomes were not particularly world class in my opinion.

What's your favorite part about being an influencer?

What's your favorite part about being an influencer?

First of all, I do not consider myself as an influencer but rather as an influential personality. What I do enjoy is meeting many different people and top brands from all over the world who have amazing ideas and plans.

Your life is closely connected with Fashion. What is Fashion for you?

Fashion is my passion. I love being in touch with the latest trends in fashion, whether winter or summer. I also love keeping up to date with leading designers and especially those regional designers who are striving for recognition on the world stage.

How do you feel being the Brand Ambassador of Dubai People?

I feel very privileged to be a Brand Ambassador for Dubai People because it is a great platform for different personalities to promote the Big UAE Giveaway as well as themselves through Dubai people. It is also a great networking platform where one can meet potential clients and business partners.

What's your target for the next 5 years?

My target is to continue doing what I am doing and to develop my own fashion related brand on a local as well as on a global level.

What’s your childhood dream?

My very first childhood dream was to become an actress in Hollywood. The glamour and glitz that one used to see in the old movies when we were growing up made us all desire to be part of that scene.

What’s your life mission?

My life mission is to spread love and kindness and to sprinkle a little bit of luxury in people's lives.

Your fashion icon?

It would have to be Coco Chanel because she was a strong willed woman who has created one of the world's most iconic fashion brands in an industry and during a period of time that was dominated by men.

Your favourite book or a movie?

I don't have a single favourite book or movie. I love movies more than books and my favourite genre is comedy. I don't like thrillers or action movies.
