With the holidays and New Year just around the corner, the time left to sort out your standout looks of the season is quickly running out. But if you’re looking for more inspiration or even a trend-focused guide, this week’s edition of GRAZIA’s Best Dressed has you covered.
From prints to bold hues, elevate your winter wardrobe essentials with a closer look at what the region’s fashion leaders are wearing.
Shahad Al Batal
For the love of mustard, do not let your winter wardrobe slip into a mundane medley of beige and grey. Instead, take a note from Shahad’s fashion bible with an impeccably layered yet flowing chartreuse ensemble. The modest fashionista seamlessly colour-blocks her outfit with some billowing dark-wash denim and an oversized velvety brown ruched purse.
Dima Sheikhly
If you’re ever on the hunt for a regional it-girl who always delivers unique fashion inspiration, look no further than Dima Sheikhly. A master of bringing polished looks with a sense of everlasting bold coolness, this beauty is a star for a reason. From the lacy bralette detailing to the deep forest green velvet body, her standout dress somehow lingers between sophisticated and sensual at the same time. Completing the statement with a ssnakeskin lime-green Jackie, this Gucci girl brings avant-garde chic to the forefront.
Sabrina Nora
Youthful sophistication is also possible in the realm of fashion, and this best-dressed first-timer proves it. From daisy-lined abaya sleeves to the ethereal sheer lace maxi skirt, Sabrina oozes femininity without parting from her girly inner charm. Alongside her calm abaya sits her baby blue Hermès standout, accented with a contrasting vibrant scarf and sleek gold hardware..
Faith
This winter, the best dressed girls seem to be embracing primary colour palettes with a sense of retro class. Wearing the popular red tights under her past-the-knee gingham skirt, Faith shows us that sophistication can be riddled with playful, sporty vibes. With a vintage circular Dior shoulder bag in hand, sourced from the ever-loved pre-loved boutique Reeborn, the it-girl completes the look with a sunshine-yellow zip-up and a bold string of pearls around her neck.
Saufeeya
A testament to the idea that you can never go wrong with all-black, Saufeeya’s monochromatic look balances its slouchy leather jacket with a fitted black button-up and an ankle-length, flowy skirt. Completing the look with equally glamorous accessories, she sports the new and booming mid-range steal: the COS Fold Oversized Tote.
Zahar Al Sayed
If wearable art is what you feel your closet is missing, this best dressed look redefines it in a timelessly brilliant form. Eclectic with elegant roots, Zahar’s ensemble toes the line of fearless vibrance and modest class, featuring earthy tones and scattered symbolic patterns. Wearing a subdued greyish-green blazer over the whimsically artistic dress, she complements the abstract focal piece with an equally standout purse from the Saudi-bred designer Dania Shinkar.
Lamia Dahmash
We don’t know where she’s going, but we know we want an invite. Lulu blends edgy and cool with sleek minimalism in this all-black outfit. Wearing an intriguing piece from Alaïa, the fitted bodice and tiered skirt dress demands attention without overpoweringly screaming for it. Paired with her D&G knee-high boots, the polished dresser steps out in an impeccably balanced nighttime look.
Iffat Marash
Rounding off this week’s best dressed list, lace is back and better this season, as yet another regional fashion creative features it—this time under shorts. With a dark denim jacket and some pointed-toe heels, this undeniably feminine look is juxtaposed with dark and moody touches. Paired with a chain-shoulder bag and subtle gold hoops, Iffat proves that a daytime look doesn’t have to be void of glam and drama.
