Fai Khadra’s birthday is on the 9th of September, which makes him a Virgo and, true to the Zodiac sign’s traits, he has a grounded and humorous personality – at least that’s what shines through on his social media posts.

Fai Khadra is the older brother of Sama and Haya, also known as the world-famous DJ duo SimiHaze.

he is a college grad

His creative side can be seen through his aesthetically pleasing Instagram posts, trendy fashion sense and artistic work. So it comes as no surprise that his passion for art led him to graduate from the American School of Dubai with a degree in architecture.

HE IS INTO SCULPTURE

The model has displayed a sculpture in a show called “Vessels” in Los Angeles. He shared, in an interview with Arab News, “It was really an interesting idea. A friend of mine, Alex — who curates these shows — comes up with a concept for each show. The last one he did was chairs.” Khadra continues, “my idea was to carve a vessel out of the ground, which I thought was an interesting kind of take on the concept of his show.”

he is a successful model, influencer, and songwriter…

Fai Khadra has over 2.4 million followers on Instagram, but what does he do? He is mainly known for his modelling career and has worked with prestigious fashion houses such as Louis Vuitton, Bulgari, Balenciaga, Ralph Lauren, and many more. The model is into music as well and has been creating it for years, which you can listen to on his SoundCloud account. He has also written songs for musicians like Justine Skye and Blood Orange, so he must be pretty good.

…And has the NET-WORTH to prove it

Modelling and influencing on social media has proven to be a very profitable source of income for Fai Khadra. As of August 2020, he is estimated to be worth an impressive amount of around Dhs4.7 million.

He did a campaign alongside Elyanna

Due to his successful modelling career, we are not surprised that he has also worked alongside the Palestinian-Chilean singer Elyanna. The two became the new faces for the eyewear brand EYE’M last year, available only at the eyewear fashion retailer MAGRABi. Their campaign definitely convinced us to head there and get ourselves a pair or two.
