Eid collection by Leem

The hallmark of chic discretion, Leem’s Eid capsule collection is a salute to modest femininity, where the triumvirate of structure, form and fashion fuse.

For Eid, Leem focuses on elegant variations on the traditional kaftan, featuring accents via pleated fronts, cape silhouettes, scooped backs and poncho coverage, all with a romantic, feminine feel. The jumpsuits will speak to those who need form and function, while the colour palette of muted to bold prints allows even the most daring to draw to attention. Pared-back and beautiful, this is refined dressing for those who demand something just that little bit different. Leem.com

SHATHA ESSA

Eid collection by Shatha Essa x Wissam Shawkat

This Eid, Emirati designer Shatha Essa has collaborated with award-winning Iraqi calligrapher Wissam Shawkat to create a collection of contemporary pieces, entitled Art of the Pen. Breaking out of the norm of calligraphy being perceived as a form of art flowing from pen to paper, Shatha collaborated with her teacher to introduce a graceful collection of penmanship-on-print pieces that see abstract Arabic calligraphy delicately embroidered on beautiful fluid capes and kaftans that evoke timeless elegance within a modern aesthetic. The beauty of the hand-embroidered designs are complimented by a palette of soft pastel pinks, blues and pops of yellow and green, and are the perfect fusion of day-to-night structures in loose, dramatic and elegant billowing fabrics.
