With a background in finance, Lebanese-Armenian Talar Artinian recently embraced her true calling, representing Sartoro Jewelry in Dubai. Her eclectic style blends her rich heritage with artistic flair
“At age 15, I experienced my first runway, and wore a unique corset crafted by an Armenian designer to a fundraising lunch organized by my school in Lebanon. It was an exhilarating and proud moment for me, marking the beginning of my journey into the world of fashion,” Talar Artinian shares.
“Experiencing the Dior Cruise show in Seville for a private lunch with GCC clients in 2022 was an unforgettable opportunity that left me brimming with excitement and gratitude.”
“In 2016, I had a blast collaborating with an American photographer for a shoot, donning Dolce & Gabbana from head to toe as we explored the vibrant streets of Bangkok. We loved the city’s contrast with the Italian diva look; it was such a fun and exciting experience.”
“To attend the Marli suhoor in 2023, I dressed in Solace London and Marli jewelry. A dear friend, Lebanese stylist Cedric Haddad, brought elegance and sophistication to my look. It was an evening of sheer refinement and luxury that left me feeling truly exquisite.”
“In May 2018, I took a trip to Japan, one of my dream destinations. This photo was taken in the Senso-ji temple where I was mesmerized by the atmosphere and their beautiful culture. I was taken to a two-level clothing shop where I was dressed in their traditional kimono.”
“In this childhood photo, I’m seven or eight years apart in age from my sisters, who always cherished and treated me like a doll. It fills me with warmth and nostalgia every time I look back on these precious memories.”
“Walking the streets os Paris during Haute Couture Week for the Zuhair Murad show in January 2023, I’m dressed in Zuhair Murad with a Valentino bag, and Rene Caovilla shoes. I felt like I was living in a dream, with an overwhelming sense of awe on being from Lebanon and supporting its designers.”
