Emirati fashion designer Hamda Al Fahim showcased her work at the second edition of Arab Fashion Week in Dubai, held between March 16-19 at the St. Regis Hotel.
Born to Emirati parents and having grown up in Abu Dhabi, Al Fahim always had a knack for sketching fashionable dresses and bringing them to life ever since she was 12 years old. What started off as a hobby slowly turned into a profession after she graduated from college. Starting off as an interior designer, Al Fahim evolved and turned to the fashion industry, with a special focus in evening wear. Her designs are inspired by a perfect blend between east and west, making her pieces beautiful as ever. "I believe a dress should be something a woman would fantasize about," Al Fahim says on her website .
Her autumn-winter 2016 collection debuted at Arab Fashion Week and it's beautiful!
