"Fashion is not something that exists in dresses only. Fashion is in the sky, in the street; fashion has to do with ideas, the way we live, what is happening".

Firstly, I'd like to congratulate and acknowledge to all the fashion designers from the Middle East and from worldwide because they give us beauty,joy and happiness to our hearts, they give us the smile of admiration, and one way to express elegance and dignity.
Middel East is the homeland of many innovative fashion designers, and two of the biggest in the fashion industry are Elie Saab and Azzedine Alaia. They have been around for decades, dressing both international celebrities and Royalty.
This is true that in this area of the world, tradition, culture and religious modesty all influence the local dress for both women and men, and simplcity is the rule. It gives us the impression that there is not fashion under burka, hijabs and abaya. In fact traditional dresses are also very nice and for exemple, the black abaya has evolved over the years, and has crossed the cultural line to become a more universal garment worn all over the world, and is an iconic part of fashion in the region.
Now, we are going to see some fashion designs showcased in the region, and to know some designers.
