SAUDI ARABIA TO HOST ITS FIRST EVER ARAB FASHION WEEK IN MARCH

Many of our Bollywood leading ladies like Mahira Khan, Sonam Kapoor, Parineeti Chopra are often seen wearing UAE based labels for major events. UAE has several talented designers like Michael Cinco who designed Aishwarya Rai Bachchan's iconic Cannes 2017 Cinderella look, Rami Al Ali who designed Kareena Kapoor Khan ruffled pink gown for the Golden Rose awards 2018, Madiyah Al Sharqi, Nafsika Skourti and many more.

These days Saudi Arabia government is very much onto women empowerment and this may be the reason for its very first Arab Fashion week. Just like other international fashion week alongside Paris and Milan, the twice-yearly Arab Fashion Week offers exclusively see-now-buy-now collections and pre-collections.

Middle east women are naturally beautiful and they dress modestly with make-up on point and this will be a great opportunity for the artists to show their skills. On Monday, 19th February 2018 the Arab Fashion Council announced that they will host it's first ever Arab Fashion Week in March and it will take place at Riyadh's eco-friendly Apex Centre. The Dubai-based Arab Fashion Council said on its website that fashion week would be held in Riyadh from March 26 to March 31, with a second edition already scheduled for October.

It still remains unclear whether it will limited to modest designs in accordance with the strict dress code observed in Saudi Arabia.
