After touring the four big capitals, fashion week will now be taking over the Arab world in a four-day event of fashion shows and seminars presented by Huawei. Held right at the heart of the St Regis Hotel in Business Bay, Dubai, from March 16 till March 19, the event will welcome designers from the Middle East, New York, South Africa and Italy, who will be showcasing their Ready-Couture Fall/Winter 2016-2017 collections.

The grand tour will also include fashion-related talks and most importantly, an awards gala dinner on March 19. With a very successful first attempt, the second edition is said to break fashionable grounds!
