You don't have to look twice at Princess Deena Aljuhani to realize she transcends stereotypes.
Aljuhani did not let living in Saudi Arabia stand in the way of becoming a total princess of fashion (pun intended). She defied stereotypes and asserted herself internationally as an independent and progressive Arab woman.
The 41-year-old mother of three is married to a member of the Saudi royal family, Abdulaziz Bin Nasser Bin Abdulaziz Al-Saud. She runs D’NA, two exclusive boutiques in Riyadh and Doha, and was announced as the founding editor-in-chief of Vogue Arabia earlier this year..
Here are 8 photos of Princess Deena that redefine what it means to be a Saudi woman.
