Ahead of Emirati Women's Day!

Emirati women are always innovating and pushing the frontiers of jewelry design with the inception of their new brands and collections. They therefore inadvertently put the UAE on the map of the fashion world. Each label pays homage to the founder's legacy and is the result of years of effort and creativity, producing everything from haute couture items to cutting-edge accessories.

On August 28, 2022, the seventh annual Emirati Women's Day will be celebrated.
