As one of the highest profile brands in the region, Qatar-based demi-couture label, Toujouri, lead the fashion pack as Creative Director, Lama El Moatessem, lit up the runway with her glamorous designs.
Heavily inspired by the work of visual artist cum fine arts photographer, Bea Kayani, the collection was brimming with character and color. Full-skirted ball gowns with cinched waists sashayed down the runway alongside chic jumpsuits and column dresses, setting the bar high for the evening ahead.
Hot on her heels and returning to the runway for their third consecutive year was dynamic design duo, Kanzi. Metal embellishments featured heavily on this sleek, modern collection of abayas, kaftans and flowing dresses.
Long silhouettes meshed well alongside fitted jackets with structured shoulders, with vibrant pops of magenta, pink and turquoise bursting through the black and neutral base pallet.
With an already extensive celebrity following, Razan Alazzouni’s star quality shone through as her largely monochrome collection drew a collective nod of approval from the crowd. Voluminous skirts and dresses were apparent throughout the collection that had spikes of red, lemon and cobalt blue.
Last, but by no means least, Omani sisters, Dibaj, were at hand to infuse some local spice into the evening. Khanjar belts and folklore embroidered cuffs and hemlines gave a distinctly traditional feel to the collection that featured an array of rich hues.
Pantsuits offered a new silhouette, featuring alongside draped dresses and kaftans. Omani gold and silver jewellery finished the collection off perfectly.
Yet again, guests were encouraged to visit the daytime exhibition at the prestigious Opera Galleria, to view the collections up close and meet the designers in person. After another successful evening of style, guests are waiting with baited breath to see the finale of this three-day fashion extravaganza tomorrow night.
