The unique multi ethnic designs of talented UAE local and foreign fashion students will take centre stage during the French Fashion University Esmod – Dubai’s annual student fashion show to be held on December 16, 2009 at the University’s Dubai Academic City campus. Dubbed ‘Multicultural Extravaganza’, the annual fashion programme will feature the creations of students from the UAE and other Arab countries, the Indian subcontinent, Russia, and other European countries. It will be attended by fashion lovers, select members of media and students, and will reflect the UAE’s growing status as the Middle East’s fashion centre.
Prior to the event, French Fashion University Esmod – Dubai hosted Miss France 2011 contestant Miss Martinique at the university last week, where she displayed the dress she plans to wear at the pageant to get feedback from the students.
“Our annual fashion show provides a platform to showcase impressive local and international talents, the world-class skills of our students, and unique themes that encourage creativity. This year we will be treated to various ethnic designs which will surely inspire the region’s aspiring fashionistas. We are proud of how this show has become influential in presenting the UAE as the Middle East’s new fashion centre,” said Tamara Hostal, Director and Founder, French Fashion University Esmod – Dubai.
The global fashion industry continues to post solid annual growth, with the Middle East in particular developing into a major player in the international fashion scene. Fashion minds from the region are achieving considerable success abroad, as they inject unique Arab elements into their designs.
