Vogue Arabia - December 2024

En este número

Vogue Arabia’s December issue celebrates the evolution — and everlasting charm — of Lebanese musician and icon Najwa Karam. As the UAE ushers in its 53rd National Day this month, the December issue also spotlights some of the country’s biggest achievers. First, we meet with Olympic equestrian Omar Al Marzouqi, joined by his sister Mthayel Al Marzouqi. Having just become the first Arab to win the prestigious FEI Rising Star Award, and the only Emirati to make it to the Paris Olympics final despite being the youngest participating rider, Omar sits down with his sibling to discuss their colorful childhoods, their passion for showjumping, and their vibrant futures with the sport. Next, we step into the office of Nadia Zaal, the Emirati entrepreneur who founded Dubai-based boutique investment firm Zaya, and serves as the director of Five Holdings, a hospitality and entertainment company that oversees the Five hotel collection and the Pacha Group. In our fashion pages, you’ll also discover daring fashion by nine Saudi designers, who presented their latest creations at Riyadh Fashion Week this October. Also in Riyadh, this November saw Lebanese couturier Elie Saab celebrate 45 successful years in the business with a star-studded show that saw some of the world’s biggest models and celebrities — from Celine Dion to Halle Berry — take the stage in his iconic ensembles.
