Akl Fakih Unveils New Abaya Collection to Reflect the Spirit of Ramadan

Dubai, United Arab Emirates, Tuesday, August 10th 2010 [ME NewsWire]:

The internationally-renowned Lebanese designer Akl Fakih has unveiled his latest Abaya collection that comprises rich style masterpieces capturing the spirit of Ramadan 2010. Akl Fakih’s breathtaking abaya creations focused on bright colors that augment the sensation of the holy month and ease the heat of a long summer season.


Commenting on the launch of the new abaya collection, Akl Fakih said: “Women in the GCC tend to wear majestic black almost all year round. My motivation was to add sparks of lively bright shades that reveal yet another beauty secret of ladies in the Gulf region.”


“I am well known for my passion for colors. I wanted to add a touch of color and style to the authentic abaya. Pieces in the new collection try to create a perfect blend with the veil or ‘hijab’ adding to the serene beauty of ladies and perfectly appropriate for the holy month of Ramadan,” Fakih added.


“I carefully choose accessories to spice up the splendor of the abaya design. Accessories can either dampen the design or add life to it,” he said.


The Lebanese-Emirati diva Diana Haddad will appear wearing abayas designed by Akel Fakih in the video clip of her latest song “Ya hdiyya min Rabbina” (A Gift from God), which was specially prepared for the holy month.


It is a public secret that Akl Fakih is the designer of choice for Diana Haddadm who was crowned “The Most Elegant Arab Star” for 2007, after wearing a silver dress designed by Fakih.


Akel Fakih paved his way to stardom thanks to his remarkable designs that boldly establish a new style that is distinct in its elegant eastern quintessence blended with an international flavor. Fakih’s creative designs and extraordinary craftsmanship create auras unique to every woman; a fairytale that unlocks the secrets of beauty and elegance.
