Held at the National Museum of Qatar, this architectural playground set the perfect scene for the artistry and talent that was celebrated this night. The event was co-hosted by actress Queen Latifah, alongside Egyptian actor Aiman Kaissouni, adding star power and laughter to the evening.
The ceremony celebrated the win of seven emerging designers from the region, including this year’s Guest Country Award: India, which truly underscored the Fashion Trust Arabia’s influence within the industry, in the region and beyond.
Founded in 2018 by Qatar’s Her Highness Sheikha Moza bint Nasser, with co-chairs Her Excellency Sheikha Al-Mayassa bint Hamad Al-Thani and Tania Fares, the Fashion Trust Arabia has spent the past seven years championing the next generation of designers across the Middle East and North Africa. The awards serve as a launchpad for young creatives, offering funding, mentorship, and global visibility that can transform early talent into international success stories.
Becoming a truly international fashion moment, this year’s Fashion Trust Arabia marked an important milestone for the organisation. Partnering with the global luxury group, Kering, for the Franca Sozzani Debut Talent Award, the winner receives a bespoke mentorship programme, designed to nurture creativity and accelerate innovation.
The night ended with performances from one of the region’s favourite performers, Saint Levant, and Chaka Khan, who delivered a show-stopping finale.
This year’s red carpet was a testament to the event’s global pull. International stars, including Gisele Bündchen, Lindsay Lohan, Emma Roberts, Tyra Banks and more made appearances, while regional stars such as Karen Wazen, Dana Hourani, and Zeyne also lit up the carpet.
Altogether, the star-studded turnout confirmed what the industry already knows: that the Fashion Trust Arabia Awards have become a true symbol of global fashion.
