Dar il Salhiya.. A New Gallery For Your Exhibitions

If Juicy Couture's store had a Kuwaiti version of it, it would be pretty much like "Dar il Salhiya". No, I'm not referring to the tracksuits. I'm referring to the interior design of the store. Dar il Salhiya is the latest addition to galleries which you can rent at if you wish to have an exhibition. It's very similar to Bait Badra or Villa Karizma in concept.


Located next to Salhiya Complex where Sari House used to be, Dar il Salhiya is divided into 6 sections available for rent. One of the sections has been specifically designed for accessories. And one of the other sections has a dedicated fitting room. The prices of the rent is reasonable, for instance, The accessories section would cost KD 40 per day. The interior is nice but I felt it was a bit gloomy for a gallery. But I like it's location, at least it's close to the underground parking opposite to Salhiya Complex. Here are some photos of the place.






I loved this girly pink glass & wood cabinet but unfortunately, it was not for sale. It's part of the interior. If you're interested to rent at Dar il Salhiya, you can call them at (+965) 2406001.

Dar Salhiya looks very not-so proper for its ground floor location inside of a dilapidated 60s era building - one of several still haunting a mostly fashion forward Kuwait City.

Dar il Salhiya is very chic but wait till you've visited "Libido -The Gallery", in Rawda. Man, I tell you the place is something else : a rare marriage between urban bohemia and Majlis al umma sophistication making it a most atmospheric space to be in;this side of the Gulf.
All you lounge lizards go check out their underground lounge bar & Turkish hammam

Saks In Bahrain

I went to Saks Fifth Avenue store in Bahrain. The two-level store is located in City Centre Mall and has a collection of American and international clothes designers for Men and Women as well as jewelry, accessories, handbags, fragrances, cosmetics, intimate apparel, bridal, and children's apparel. However, I was slightly disappointed by the small selection, maybe because all items were on sale? Or the number and variety of brands were limited? Anyhow, my favourite section at Saks - Bahrain was Saks's world-famous 10022-SHOE salon (shown in the photo below). It had the same look & feel of the NY's shoe salon but of course not the same space. The Shoe Salon had really nice selection and they were all on sale! I have been told by Saks Sales Assistant that they will be hosting numerous special events throughout the year such as fashion shows and personal appearances by designers. Now that's something I'd be interested in! In addition, they currently offer in-st
