The UAE is in constant evolution and progress, and keeps creating chances and opportunities. As the Emirates celebrate the country’s national day on the second of December, we decided to celebrate the years of tireless efforts of the creatives and entrepreneurs of their country in the fashion sector. From luxury accessories to contemporary streetwear on to the most elegant abayas, her are three influential Emirati women designers to start including their designs in your wardrobes.
Sheikha Madiyah Al Sharqi
Being the daughter of the Fujairah ruler, Sheikha Madiyah al Sharqi was exposed to fine tailoring and beautiful designs since she was young, so having the passion for design just made sense. Upon graduating from the Ecole Superieure des arts et techniques de la mode (ESMOD), Madiyah launched her namesake label in 2012.
Classic, timeless, and contemporary describe well the Madiyah Al Sharqi woman. The emirati designer knows well when and how to include embroideries and focus on the feminine vibe. Not only Arab influencers among whom Nour Arida and Rym Saidi are her fans, but she also made it to celebrities’ wardrobes including Kris Jenner, Alessandra Ambrosio, Nicole Richie and others.
Huda Al Nuaimi

Established in 2016, Huda Al Nuaimi label aims to empower and spread happiness through the luxury accessories and ready-to-wear label. The Emirati designer, using hand-embroidery, embellishments, color and intricate detail – while never straying from flattering yet playful silhouettes – each collection is created with the fun, carefree and stylish female in mind.
Not only an accessories line, Huda Al Nuaimi is also a signature womenswear line boasting feminine, flirtatious & colorfully fun silhouettes.
You can shop her collections through her website: https://hudaalnuaimi.ae/shop/shop-main/
Hessa Falasi

The designer and founder of Hessa Falasi abaya line, Emirati designer Hessa Falasi launched her label in 2011, and later became the most searched Emirati designer in the world.
Her designs are inspired by materials, art and beauty to create elegant abaya for the modern woman. Her designs are timeless, simple but luxurious at the same time. We think it’s time you put one of her designs between the festive abaya picks for the holiday season.
