Name: Faiza Asif
Profession: Model
Nationality: Pakistan
Fashion Statement: Dress elegant and classy! “In order to be irreplaceable one must always be different,” says Coco Chanel
Personal Style: Fashion says ‘me too,’ style says ‘only me’. Style is what suits you more than what suits others.
Favourite recent purchase: I’m a shopaholic with a craze for shoes, (which would substantiate my fashion purchase for the last month 😛 Christian Louboutin polka dot pumps, with Vintage printed dress with cap sleeves by Chanel.
Favourite store? Yas Mall, Marina Mall, Al Wahda Mall (the extension in specific) are the malls I prefer for shopping. Good fashion stores like Harvey Nichols, Debenhams and Sephora are the biggest reasons.
Does the UAE have style?
A big YES!!! The combination of different nationalities has set the trend for people presenting fashion in a different way. Instead of sticking to one style they choose to carry fusion of styles.
Fashion view:
Fashion is an art of personal self-expression, not an excuse to be charismatic. I abide by the saying “It is better to fail in originality than to succeed in imitation.”
