Where Do You Think Chanel's Cruise Collection Will be Presented in Dubai?

Unless you've been living under a rock or instagramless, you'd probably know by now that Chanel's next Cruise collection will be held in none other than one of my favorite cities in the world, Dubai. 

Since 2000, Chanel's collections have been travelling around the world from Paris to New York, Los Angeles, Miami, Venice, Saint Tropez, Cap d'Antibes, Versailles and Singapore.

A futuristic megalopolis of the 21st century, the ever developing Emirate of Dubai is a crossroads of civilisations between Europe and Asia. This dynamic and multicultural city that inspires travel and evokes the spirit of Cruise is also the perfect setting for the show that will be held on Tuesday 13th May 2014 in the presence of Karl Lagerfeld.

Ever since I heard the news and I've been wondering where would it be held, it would be a major disappointment if it's going to be held at a Mall, like Dubai Mall, that would be very stereotypical. Let's play the guessing game! So here is my list of where this much-anticipated event should be held:
  1. Al Maha Desert Resort & Spa, this place is nestled in a lush palm oasis, deep within Dubai’s magical dune and desert landscape. So it would somewhat give a true feel of arabic heritage.
  2. Dubai Miracle Garden, it is Cruise collection, so it's only natural to have the fashion show set up in the most beautiful and biggest natural flower garden in the world.
  3. Dubai Marina Yacht Club, can you imagine the scenery during sunset when the lights of the buildings are reflecting on the water?
What do you think? Where will it be held?

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.
