New York Times T Magazine’s blog "The Moment" had Sheikh of Chic Majed Al Sabah as this week’s guest blogger. The Moment is a daily blog that spans the T Magazine universe of fashion, design, food and travel. Click here to read it.It was very interesting to know that Majed Al-Sabah have been meeting with artists and galleries in the states about a museum which he plans to open in Dubai during new year's. I'm looking forward to see how the museum will turn out to be.

Good interview. Funny about the "marrying the second cousin" bit. He shouldn't have said that.
It requires too much of an explanation. Its considered wrong!
i sort of agree with Habibs comment on the blog.........
Not that much of a visionary except for opening something super modern in an unlikely neighbourhood of kuwait.
Other than that, my dear SHEIKH (whatever) fashion existed in Kuwait before you and real fashion is still done by other than Villa Moda.
Yeah, that's sth I'm looking forward to.
anonymous & this Lady
You're right. I don't think people outside this region would comprehend the concept of marrying a relative.
Villa gossip
We'll just have to wait and see I guess :)
As an aside for some time now we know that consanguinity can breed certain recessive genetic inheritances and is bad for your children. Still, educated, liberal & yes, facionable people do as they are told to stoke tradition and toe the line when it comes to settling down in life.
