Fashion trust arabia

Following the announcement of the winners of the Fashion Trust Arabia Prize 2022, guests made their way to the B Lounge at the Ritz Carlton, Doha, on October 26, which had transformed into the electrifying Miu Miu Club for the evening. The fashion house’s partnership with Fashion Trust Arabia comes shortly after the opening of its sprawling boutique at Place Vendome, Doha, and falls in line with its commitment to its Middle East clientele. The awards ceremony too had a special musical guest courtesy of Miu Miu—FKA Twigs, who took the stage dressed in a playful belted dress ensemble for soulful renditions of her hit song.
In attendance at the after-party were much-loved personalities from the region and beyond, all dressed in coveted looks from the fashion house. They included Salma Abu Deif, Dima Sheihkly, Karen Wazen, Olivia Culpo, Oumayma El Boumeshouli, Noor Tagouri, Elyanna, Ikram Abdi Omar, Poppy Delevingne, Haneen Al Saifi, and many more.
Complete with a DJ spinning tunes to dance the night away to, and a view of the stunning Doha skyline, the venue was the perfect place to celebrate the winners of the Fashion Trust Arabia Prize 2022, under the patronage of HH Sheikha Moza Bint Nasser as honorary chair and co-chairs HE Sheikha Al Mayassa Bint Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani and Tania Fares.
