Academy President Janet Yang shines at 2025 Oscars in Bosnian designer gown

The stunning creation is the work of designers Nermina Hodzic and Emina Hodzic Adilovic, whose brand, Kaftan Studio, has become renowned for blending tradition with contemporary fashion. Their designs have previously graced major red carpets, including the Oscars and the Golden Globes, and Yang’s choice once again affirmed their growing international recognition.

Yang completed her look with silver jewelry, a chic clutch, and loosely styled hair with soft curls framing her face, adding a touch of effortless elegance.

Kaftan Studio made history as the first Bosnian brand to appear on the Oscars red carpet when Rebecca King Crews wore one of their designs in 2019.

A longtime admirer of Kaftan Studio, Yang’s appearance at this year’s Oscars further cemented the notion that high fashion knows no borders—highlighting Bosnia and Herzegovina as a rising force in the global fashion industry.
