Donna Karan Soon at Salhiya Complex


Donna Karan boutique will be opening in October 2008 at Salhiya Complex (Mezzanine 2, next to American Retro and opposite to Kenzo). I hope they'll be getting the latest collection and not what's available in their old stock. Especially the evening wear, as I've started to appreciate some of Donna Karan's silhouettes, some of them can be incredibly sensual and classic chic pieces. Speaking of which, I can't remember the last time I bought from this brand. Let's just hope that this season would see more creatively designed uber-chic items.

darlings middle class women cannot afford $1.800/2.500dresses.. Donna Karan has evolved in the past couple of years, the brand is very upscale, using only ultra fine fabrics that Donna makes sure they feel soft & luxurious against the female body. This is a no fuss brand- purely refined for a subtle lady.

Donna Karan ib Macy's and Bloomies? WTF? No offense, but it's pretty up there will all the top designers. Of course, not everyone wears Donna Karan because it has clients that love the cuts and silhouettes. Dresses start at over $2000. Check out the collection online at Net-a-Porter and Neiman Marcus. I just went to a wedding in June and wore this GORGEOUS long, red dress with a plunging neckline. It was exquisite. I'm only 20, but I appreciate high fashion and I certainly know that "middle class Caucasian women" don't wear Donna Karan. Even DKNY has been cute as of late. I love the dresses, as they're very casual and chic!

If they're getting their Bond St type merchandise then it's going to be out of this world. Donna Karan understands what a woman really wants.

So did Jimmy Choos have to face the axe to make way for what's her face - Donna Karan ?
When's the ultra-soft opening happening then? You bet we are all invited, right? Funny how D.K. forgot to hand me an invite at the NYFW even when there was such a tattle doing the rounds with the front rowers there.
Wouldn't it be marveleux having a Madeleine Vionnet flagship store open shop right beside Donna K in Salhiya? Will give an edge to the Battle Royale between European couture and American on foreign soil.

In the Middle East, European brands always win over American brands.
Except for maybe Juicy Couture.

When luxury shops started opening everywhere in the GCC they all satrted with Calvin Klein, Armani and Donna Karan.
at that tim ein the early 90's, American brands dominated big time. Now, they are struggeling more than ever to make a big a statement as the European brands
I mean:

Dolce Prada Armani Etro Marni Gucci Dior Vuitton
VS.
Donna Karan Calvin Klein Isaac Mizirahi Kenneth Cole Tommy Hilfiger Michael Kors Ralph Lauren

Who do you think would win!!!?!?!?!

Whoa! there's a great deal of designer name throwing going on there.
Given how people's mind sets and sensibilities in the AGCC are more in tune with India than with the rest of Europe or the US I think Indian labels more than European or US designer labels would sit well with the Khaleeji fashionistas.

Manav Gangwani, Ritu Kumar, Ritu Berri, Hemant Sagar, Abu Jani Sandeep Khosla, Aki Nirula et al.

versus.

Christian Lacroix, Zandra Rhodes,Ungaro, Moschino,Hermes, Pringle of Scotland etc.

Now you tell me : who do you think would win???
:)
P.S. Ana hindeya but all my life I've always been a sucker for Japanese designer labels.

Altuzarra or Aquazzura?

That is the question. It took me a whole season to finally tell these two brands apart, and this season, there's no mistake, each brand is now engraved in my fashion database like a personalized Tiffany's pen. And this Resort 2015 season, I'm head over heels with their flats, on display now at AlOthman Boutique . Altuzarra's version comes in a tonal-gray water snake and are decorated with beige shells, red beads and silver sequins. Aquazzura's lace-up sandals come in a beautiful shade of apple green, and will work with white or bright colored casual summer outfit.  After much thought and sole-searching, I have decided to go for the  Altuzarra   sandals. They're safely stored in my closet, waiting for the dust and the cold to go away.  Which pair would you go for?

To New Beginnings...

"What did this Corona crisis teach you?" my friend asked. My first thought was thing crisis has opened my eyes on the simple pleasures of life. My priorities have changed. And I feel every day is a new beginning. First of all, it made me realize how much I miss blogging. How simple and mentally satisfying it was to jolt down my thoughts on a field that I was very passionate about. I have to admit that I'm not as passionate now. Don't get me wrong, I still like fashion, but it's now on the bottom of my priorities list. I would like to blog about other things too that I feel much related to. I recently discovered that I do enjoy cooking. For the longest time, cooking to me was a nightmare.  This corona crisis has taught us that we can look forward to a new day with new possibilities to contribute or to help another, or to simply approach things differently, and most importantly to make the most of each day we have and share that goodness with others.
