Manish Malhotra, a couturier and ready-to-wear designer, has unveiled a limited-edition collection for his newly established store in Dubai. “The World Collection” combines global styles with Malhotra’s timeless approach to elegance and the UAE’s characteristic black and gold colours.
“Impeccable detail, woven into every thread, shapes The World Collection: Dubai,” announced Manish Malhotra on Facebook, launching the collection’s corresponding fashion film. Models for the collection included Mahieka Sharma, Alicia Kaur, and Eugeniya Belousova in a campaign photo taken at the Royal Opera House in Mumbai.
Numerous floor-length gowns from the World Collection come with matching headpieces and veils. To appeal to the wide range of customers at Malhotra’s Dubai flagship shop, the collection blends traditional South Asian, Middle Eastern, and Western silhouettes with shimmering gold filigree and floral embroidery to create the illusion of jewels or armour.
In order to establish a connection with the local community, visitors, and non-resident Indians in the vicinity, Manish Malhotra created an exclusive brand outlet on Fashion Avenue within Dubai Mall. In December of last year, the store officially opened for business. Celebrity interior designer Gauri Khan, who collaborated with the namesake designer, created the 5,000 square foot space.
