The Symphony that Rocked Dubai


For their inaugural A/W 2010 campaign, new multi-brand store Symphony pulled out all the stops by booking America’s Next Top Model, Raina Hein. Throughout the month of July 2010 regional and international media were buzzing with news about the new collaboration and concept. Raina Hein visited Dubai at the end of May to shoot the campaign; whose details have been a well kept secret until now…

Symphony is set to stock a diverse and unique collection of luxury fashion brands including Christian Siriano, Luisa Beccaria, Jason Wu, Vera Wang, Ports 1961, Thakoon, BodyAmr and many, many more! The new store will be spread over 3,000 sq ft and located in the heart of the Dubai Mall’s prestigious Fashion Avenue. Symphony will feature a large outdoor balcony area where visitors can enjoy spectacular views of the Burj Khalifa and fountain display in the cooler months of the year. Symphony will also stock a range of quirky lifestyle items for the home, inspiring books and rare magazines, lomography cameras and coveted vintage designer pieces. Symphony will open sometime this month.

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?

Magical Mode

As anyone who regularly reads Confashions may know, there are some designers I’ve been obsessed with for quite some time: one is the genius Erdem , the other is Nicholas Kirkwood , and Pierre Hardy . And because their designs are somehow easily accessible online and offline, I had the pleasure of featuring some of their creations and showing them the love they deserve. That said, there is one designer I’ve been particularly smitten with for quite some time. He has always been on the top of my favorite designers list ever since I was introduced to his designs by my fabulous fellow fashionisto Adnan Z Manjal   a couple of years back : Saudi designer Mohammed Ashi . I always wished I featured him more. I couldn’t because his pieces are very exclusive and as far as I know not stocked anywhere here. This clearly isn't just another post on my obvious love for Mohammed Ashi’s designs or the quality of his clothes as I have done that previously. Ashi simply deserves his very own epic p...

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.
