Farhana Bodi

Identified. as one of Dubai's most glamourous social media personalities, Farhana Bodi is the queen of couture. Boasting over 2 million Instagram followers, she's always spotted in ultraluxe brands that make for an enviable wardrobe. Now, Farhana also has a Netflix reality show to her name, Dubai Bling, which showcases the best of her lifestyle as a single working mum and the founder of I Woman of the World, a firm aimed at empowering women. HELLO! gets Farhana talking about her favourites in the world of luxury and more!

Luxury to me is: About values, high quality and a certain timelessness that outlives passing trends.

My most luxe experience: It was a trip on one of the top private jets of the Comlux Group. I flew from Dubai to Europe, and the experience was so luxurious! The crew provided outstanding guest service, the food was amazing, and the whole experience was just next-level luxury.

KJO KOMMENTS

"I haven't seen any episode of Dubai Bling, but it sounds much like Bollywood Wives. I'd say both are guilty pleasures! Everyone hates on such series yet watches them. The reason we are going into our third season of Bollywood and Dubai Bling will probably Wives go into a second season means that everyone's dissing it, but everyone's loving it, too! So if they're attacking Farhana on or off the show, let me tell you that they've made her famous! Even in Big Boss, it's always the person who gets attacked the most who wins!"
