Marrakesh / MAROC FASHION WEEK

 

Good Morning, Classy People

Last weekend was filled with my duties as a blogger. I had the pleasure of attending Maroc Fashion Week in Marrakesh after being invited by fashion designer Mina Binebine.

On Saturday morning, I covered the press conference for Morocco Mag. 

The event kicked off with a general introduction, followed by specific insights into this year's edition. Each participant in the fashion show provided a brief presentation of their upcoming work that would be showcased later that evening.

The press conference took place at the Moroccan Culinary Arts Museum, a place I was discovering for the first time. 

I loved everything about it.

It reminded me of my grandparents' home in Marrakesh. The riad features a delightful mix of closed and open spaces within its interior. 

Today, it serves as a café-restaurant, a boutique for Moroccan products, an Andalusian garden in the back, a two-floor museum, and a rooftop.

For the press conference, I chose a white shirt paired with flowy, silky printed pants from my 2020 designs. I added a leather belt for contrast and wore wedges to stay comfortable while navigating in heels.

Typically, I opt for a work or office-style look for such events, but since this was related to an artistic activity, I decided to add a creative twist to my formal work outfit.

That evening, during the fashion show, I showcased one of my designs from THE MOROCCAN WARDROBE. A Moroccan dress is versatile and suitable for numerous occasions, and this one was a perfect example. 

It featured a beige creamy color with an elegant cut, adorned with artisanal Maalam work.

The fashion show itself was a fairytale, featuring a stunning variety of designs. Four shows were scheduled, and I loved witnessing the diverse creativity as different designers sculpted the runway with their ideas. 

The styles ranged from traditional Moroccan and Azeri to contemporary wear, creating a breathtaking showcase. 

I will be sharing pictures of my favorite looks from the night under this post.

I shared more details about my attendance at this event on my Instagram.

I'm also thrilled to take you in a visual trip with an exclusive gallery showcasing the stunning moments I captured during Maroc Fashion Week.
