The outfit consisted of a black leotard with a sheer black overlay. While the top layer was floor length and had beading, it was mostly see-through, revealing her legs. It did have a high neck, but the leotard dipped a bit lower, so part of her collarbone was visible through the overlay. It was also sleeveless.<\/p>\n<p class=\"canvas-atom canvas-text Mb(1.0em) Mb(0)--sm Mt(0.8em)--sm\" style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; color: #26282a; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: #ffffff; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;\" data-reactid=\"24\">While the gown hit a fashion high-note, it didn\u2019t go over well in Egypt. Multiple lawyers filed a lawsuit against the 44-year-old accusing the actress of \u201cinciting debauchery.\u201d If convicted, she could face up to five years in jail, according to&nbsp;AFP. According to&nbsp;The Telegraph, lawyers accused her of&nbsp;committing an obscene act in public, \u201cinciting debauchery and temptation,\u201d and \u201cspreading vice in ways that violate established norms in Egyptian society.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"canvas-atom canvas-text Mb(1.0em) Mb(0)--sm Mt(0.8em)--sm\" style=\"margin: 0px 0px 1em; color: #26282a; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: #ffffff; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;\" data-reactid=\"24\">\n<p class=\"canvas-atom canvas-text Mb(1.0em) Mb(0)--sm Mt(0.8em)--sm\" data-reactid=\"25\">Two of the lawyers \u201calleging obscenity\u201d are Amro Abdelsalam and Samir Sabri. Apparently, Youssef\u2019s appearance \u201cdid not meet societal values, traditions and morals and therefore undermined the reputation of the festival and the reputation of Egyptian women in particular,\u201d Sabri told AFP.<\/p>\n<p class=\"canvas-atom canvas-text Mb(1.0em) Mb(0)--sm Mt(0.8em)--sm\" data-reactid=\"26\">The Egyptian Actors\u2019 Syndicate commented on the dress without naming Youssef. \u201cThe appearance of some of the festival\u2019s guests did not agree with the traditions and values of the society, and this has undermined the festival and the union which is responsible for its members behavior,\u201d it said in a statement to AFP.<\/p>\n<p class=\"canvas-atom canvas-text Mb(1.0em) Mb(0)--sm Mt(0.8em)--sm\" data-reactid=\"27\">Egypt is a mostly conservative country with a Muslim majority. The Muslim religion requires women to cover much of their body for the sake of dignity, modesty, and \u201cbodily integrity.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"canvas-atom canvas-text Mb(1.0em) Mb(0)--sm Mt(0.8em)--sm\" data-reactid=\"27\"><div class=\"e3lan e3lan-in-post2\"><p style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong><em>Adv<\/em>.<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n<ul>\r\n \t<li style=\"text-align: left;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bagfactory.com.hk\/216\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong>Sun Winning Ind Co<\/strong><\/span><\/a>: Manufacture of Canvas Bag, Recycle Bad in China<\/li>\r\n \t<li><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><strong><a style=\"color: #ff0000;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theunitravel.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">TheUniTravel.com<\/a><\/strong><\/span> : Find the latest\u00a0<em>travel<\/em>\u00a0and tourism\u00a0<em>news<\/em>\u00a0from around the world.
