The bi-annual event Riyadh Fashion Days is returning with its Fall 2015 edition to the Saudi capital. Maison Bo-M Galeries, in collaboration with the British Council, will host the two-month showcase, which invites local and regional designers to exhibit their latest collections at Nujoud Mall.
Set within a stylish environment, Riyadh Fashion Days will offer a mix of ready-to-wear, abaya, kaftan, and accessory brands that cater to the tastes of the region’s women. The participating ready-to-wear lines include Dubai-based label Lune and contemporary sportswear brand Army of 1; meanwhile in eveningwear, Emirati designer Manal Al Sharhan will showcase her collection of dresses and gowns. For abayas, Kuwaiti label By Nouma will present embroidered bishts; Qatar-based label Aldukan will showcase its contemporary designs; and Frou Frou from Dubai will offer its unique mix of chic kaftans and abayas.
The event will also include a series of interactive workshops and panel discussions led by British fashion industry specialists to offer an insight into how emerging designers can take their brands forward. Ten Saudi designers will be able to partake in the International Fashion Program, a four-day intensive workshop that will cover a wide range of topics, such as styling, trend forecasting, and branding.
Riyadh Fashion Days will run from November 21st, 2015 until January 21st, 2016 at the Maison Bo-M Galeries, Riyadh.
