From ready-to-wear to high-end fashion, you can also check out the multiple brands with enchanting collections inspired by Saudi heritage and culture. Sprinkling sparkles and a whole lot of fashion jazz to lighten your mood, the event will take you through a splendid collection of fashion, accessories and jewellery.
The fusion of designer line-ups has added their own touch of needful sensibilities to traditional collections that cater to today’s fashion trends.
You’ll also find brands that you know and love: 1886, Kaf by Kaf, Memash, Not Boring, Blank Boutique, Cup of Sea, Huda Bamarouf, Abroad, NH Designer, Reham Nassier, Leila Bousseta, Aura By Nour, Jino, Rano Moda, Nouf Fetaihi, APOA, Shahad Aljumah, Mohaik, and more.
Some of our favourites include Dazluq, a Miami-based label by Saudi designer Salma Zahran, and Yousef Akbar, whose award-winning contemporary eveningwear brand focuses on ethical and sustainable fashion for women.
A dope ready-to-wear brand to check out with its dedicated attention to detail, crafted fabrics, and finer finishings is Noble and Fresh. This fashion house, founded in Riyadh, is redefining menswear. The collection by creative director and designer Naif Al-Haif is a tribute to his hometown and Saudi heritage – specifically, Diriyah. The pieces are fun, and the prices are more than reasonable, ranging between SAR300 and SAR1,500. You’ll definitely be able to find something that floats your boat here.
For those searching for elegant Ramadan ensembles, Nour Al-Dhahri will have you sorted. Her gorgeous clothing line is adorned with playful details, and the fabrics are opulent, so you can count on these pieces to last a lifetime.
Feeling peckish after all that shopping? There are plenty of cafes that will hit the spot.
