Kaftan Fiesta

The holy month of Ramadhan is almost over, but the amazing nights with friends will always be memorable.  A recent gathering hosted by close friends of mine at their gorgeous cozy villa here in Dubai. The girls styled their kaftans really well and looked fabulous for the night.

Pre Ramadhan pop-up shop 2014

This year I decided to rebrand the design concept of PreRamadhan pop-up shop from black and white to bronze floral theme which resulted beautifully. It took place in The Lounge at The Dubai Mall. Lovely location with a lovely view of the fountain and the Burj Khalifah. This year, PreRamadhan pop-up shop featured 14 designers  from the Middle East showcasing their Ramadhan collection <Kaftan collection>. 

Designers

Day 2 of ramadan was full of energy and laughter with friends. Of course the colorful Kaftans or what we call Jalabiya completed the day! Usually in Ramadan, I gather with friends after Al Taraweeh prayers (Isha prayer). Besides the never ending chats, of course the never ending food! But who cares? its Ramadan! 

Yummy desserts!
