Dress The Mannequin is the humanitarian side of Abu Dhabi Fashion Days, A group charity exhibition of miniature mannequins to support humanity. An art/fashion exhibition to raise awareness of the creative Emirati and non-Emirati residents of the UAE to highlight and encourage entities to approach these talents for their creative projects. Each participating creative is given a miniature mannequin to recreate it in his/her own technique, and then displayed in an exhibition where common people, art buyers and collectors are able to purchase by participating in its silent bidding auction.
Abu Dhabi Fashion Days is a cross roads of talent, entrepreneurship and the support of new SMEs.

Abu Dhabi Fashion Days follows the international fashion seasons which are Summer/Spring and Autumn/Winter. The show takes place twice a year, one every fashion season, this will allow buyers to stock their shops throughout the year, and allow the designers to have a year round activity and opportunity.
