Women Arab Fashion Week kicked off at Dubai Design District (d3) unveiling the one-of-a-kind Jean Louis Sabaji X Barbie capsule. Barbie stepped up in pure couture regalia, achieving her most elegant catwalk debut ever. A collection flooded with her favorite hues of powder pink and black, floor-sweeping evening gowns that embrace female curves, along with uptown cocktails dresses coming to fruition. The Jean Louis Sabaji X Barbie capsule unfurled in an array of sleek, form-fitting silhouettes crafted with surprising details.











An homage to the incredible evolution of the 2021 Fashion Icon Awardee, feathers and the heart serve as Sabaji’s iconic hallmark: the latter is deconstructed into an ironic bodice and crafted into striking neck lines and plunging backs, as Barbie again evolves her aesthetic for one of fashion’s most exciting epochs of all.











A By Invite Only Afterparty filled with key players in the fashion industry and Media feted Sabaji’s work and the most beloved and diverse doll in the world, marking the opening of Arab fashion Week Women’s Day One of shows and events.
