Leem
Known for timeless conservative wear for today’s fashion-conscious woman, Saudi Arabian brand Leem has always been a purveryor of bold expression, chic in its discretion. Their latest collection sees the brand take on stylish silhouettes using colourful embroidered belts on kaftans to add a sophisticated, whimsical feel. Layering is seen throughout, with free-flowing kaftans paired with voluminous trousers, and maxi dresses worn under trench coats.
