Tom Ford launches boutique @ Dubai Mall




This week in Dubai I saw....

Tom Ford. Yes that's right, Tom Ford came into town for literally 28 hours to make an appearance for his first store opening in the Middle East.  I guess there was no better place to open his first boutique in the region than Dubai.  A private cocktail party was held at his lavishly sleek store at the Dubai Mall on November 10th with the cities top socialites and spenders.  The combination of endowed local abaya wearing women and chic expats snagging photo opportunities with the one and only Tom was surely a sight to see...I guess only in Dubai :)  An even more private dinner with Tom Ford was held at the Capital Club afterwards with 35 of the most privileged guests.  Lucky them!

Looks like these top western designers are really taking this market seriously... it's developing as a primary regional fashion hub and many more to come.

Until next time....bisous!
