Created exclusively for Torino Fashion Week, Amal Al Raisi’s A/W17 collection drew inspiration from Omani architecture with delicate gold and silver embellishments detailed across each relaxed, loose-fit silhouette. Using luxurious yet lightweight fabrics to accommodate the temperatures in the gulf, all of the looks were designed with Muslim women in mind. Produced by the Islamic Fashion and Design Council, Torino Fashion Week’s modest category featured handpicked designers (including Dubai’s Bambah by Maha Abdul Rasheed) showcasing abayas, kaftans and jalabiyas with models taking to the runway in hijabs and turbans, celebrating the style and elegance of modest fashion.
