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 posts because simply put, anything this brilliant man creates is stunning.

You can imagine my excitement when Ashi’s second project from Mode 6 was revealed to me. Mode 2 is inspired by “A Bird came down the Walk”, a poem written by Emily Dickinson. “The limitless and genius imagination of Dickinson helped me realized the image of the wild bird in her poem in fifteen pieces, using feathers and soft fabrics to capture the birds effect in a dramatic mood.”, expressed Ashi. MODE 2 is showcasing in LA and Beirut Lebanon.

It was so hard for me to select a few photos to feature on my blog because I fell in love with them ALL. His play with fabric is so distinct and oddly powerful. I’ll leave you now with the spectacular and breathtaking Mode 2.

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
