Shakespearean move

One of the most striking and significant events of the season was the Harvey Nichols-Dubai show. This year marks the 400th anniversary of the death of William Shakespeare, and Harvey Nichols decided to honor the memory of the great playwright by dedicating the event to his works. For the show, the hall of the Imperium restaurant was chosen at the Jumeirah Zabeel Saray hotel on the island of Palm Jumeirah - one of the most fashionable establishments in Dubai.

Harvey Nichols invited the most stylish and reputable trendsetters in Dubai, selected editors and influencers. By the efforts of designers, the restaurant hall turned into a bizarre, but absolutely English in spirit, Shakespearean tale. Making their way to their places, the guests admiredly examined the labyrinth of sparkling candelabra and transparent curtains, on which Shakespeare's lines and characters appeared. In the center of the hall was built a podium, decorated, of course, also in Shakespeare's style: a walkway of the color of rose quartz, draperies and ceremonial chandeliers.

A mirror was installed at the end of the podium: reflections of models flying across the podium flickered in it, plunging the guests deeper and deeper into a fantastic Shakespearean dream. The show began with soulful classical music and the main fashion trends: bold and colorful prints, lace, fringe and layering, a silk organza with floral patterns and spectacular details. Brands such as Erdem, Peter Pilotto, Chloe, Lanvin and Dolce & Gabbana were presented to guests. By tradition, the show ended with an impressive demonstration of evening dresses. Harvey Nichols-Dubai showed guests amazing evening toilets from Oscar de la Renta, Monique Lhullier and Zuhair Murad.
