Fashion statement:
Life’s too short to dress badly. Fashion isn‘t about being able to afford the newest Chanel bag or Louboutins. You can even make a high street dress look better than couture. Fashion is what you buy, style is what you do with it.
Your personal style:
Eclectic, trend driven yet classic
What are your recent favourite buys?
Beetroot pink Missoni dress from Carel couture, Bensimon sneakers and an Alexander Wang t-shirt from Boutique one as well as a Crisp white blazer and a chic black jumpsuit from Zara.
What are your favourite stores?
I like to combine high street with high end.
High street: Zara & H&M
High end: Boutique 1 and Carel Couture
Do you think the UAE has style?
Definitely ! However, it’s still evolving. I think Dubai has already asserted itself as new fashion capital, while soon Abu Dhabi will soon have two fashion worthy events: Luxury Fashion Week and the opening of a new designer brands hub in Mariah Island.
Any fashion pet peeves?
Cheap fabric and logo overload.
