    BOLD & BEAUTIFUL
    These new collections spark excitement for a colourful summer.

    Menswear-style blazer and chunky cable-knit sweater worn over the shoulders, both by COS, Dhs772 and Dhs430

    FROM APPLE TO PISTACHIO GREEN
    In winter, everyone was crazy about butter yellow, but this spring, we’re wearing soft sorbet shades.

    PUMP UP THE VOLUME!
    The exhibition on Paul Poiret – the selfstyled “King of Fashion” at the beginning of the last century – in Paris, has brought the jupe culotte back into focus. Inspired by the Ballets Russes, Poiret repeatedly drew
    on opulent folk costumes and turned them into the dernier cri. Modern interpretations were plentiful on the runway, such as Etro’s silk paisley-print jumpsuit (including the hat and shoes), infused with Studio 54 vibes, Dhs16,730. Complemented by a selection of Tubogas jewellery, by Bvlgari.

    NINE TO FIVE
    Current world events call for a certain seriousness, not only in the workplace. A grey suit paired with a
    same-tone shirt and tie, a true styling coup, has you perfectly prepared. Outfit by Brioni, price upon request.
