From Dubai with love …. Soon after the marvelous Paris Fashion Week, Dubai outshined the world with another major event which took place in the same time with the Expo 2020 fair. And that was the Arab Fashion Week, the biggest fashion event from the United Arab Emirates and all Middle East countries.

International designers from all around the world could not miss this time of the year to present their Fall-Winter 2023 collections on the runways of summerish and glamorous Dubai under the admiration of the rich public coming from all corners of the globe. All showcased designs were under the magic spell of the the Dubai style, elegant, glamorous and meant to express luxury in its highest shape.

Today we want to highlight one of the designers which caught our attention with its feminine, sexy and ravishing creations presented in Dubai during the Arab Fashion Week. That is right, we are talking about Death by Dolls created by the Saudi fashion designer, Sara Al-Saud.

Death by Dolls releases the rebel within. Each eclectic and 80’s inspired piece is ready to hit to runway and with monumental effect. Sara Al-Saud, the Saudi fashion designer, and her sister created Death By Dolls. Their electric and fun collection is sure to be the talk of Arab Fashion Week.

Layering is a staple trend for Fall/Winter 2022/23. Death by Dolls as a brand is most definitely hip and on trends. The sparkling skirt overlay on a two-piece pinstriped button-down shorts set is low-key cool. Lots of emphasis was put on bust details and vertical silver raised details. The model in this style is also wearing a fur trimmed denim overcoat.

Speaking of trim, the fleece lined coat set with tie-dye treatment was styled well over the front slit denim, with silver bows, and white crop top. Denim weights are worth mentioning in this collection too; halter tie-dye sundresses with spaghetti strap details are super sleek.

Models were scantily clad, wearing eclectic sheer pieces with quirky iconic details. Sparkles make anything shine, and in any form. That chic black spaghetti strap mini dresses, with the large, adorned diamonds is a nice change to the ever-present sequin sparkle. The bustier mini-dress with rushed details, glittering verbiage, and comfortable knit jumper blouse was iconic.

That’s one detail to love about Fall ready-to-wear, the ‘flashy’ textile usage. The outfitted model wearing a sparkling blazer over an ankle length see-through dress, showed the versatility of Sara’s two-piece short set underneath it all. The same see-through sparkling mesh style can be seen in the collection with a thick blue fur trim, and over a bikini.

Bold and daring are the most expressive works that describe Sara’s collection. All the styles are impeccable. Death by Dolls is fierce with unapologetic style.
