DUBAI FASHION WEEK

Tonight we went to Dubai Fashion Week at the Atlantis Hotel {sadly I only have blackberry photos because my camera battery died!}


We saw the Falguni & Shane Peacock fashion show which was very interesting. These photos are not of the new collection but their pieces are very structured and shimmery this season...I actually liked some of it which is rare for me and DFW. They are Indian designers and show at London Fashion week as well.

Then we went to the after-party at the Armani Hotel, Burj Khalifa (tallest building in the world, remember?)
This was OBVIOUSLY my favorite part of the night because I got to check out the hotel and the interiors.

I was surprised that this entry area was so small, but it had a really great ambience at night. I love all the putty brown-grey tones, the marble, and the yummy carpet. Still wondering what the ENDLESS roman shades are all about...but hey it's ARMANI, guess it doesn't matter?

Armani Prive, the nightclub was pretty too. Very understated of course.

LOVED all the lit up marble and lacquered black walls.

This entry hallway was awesome.

But then this is the rest of the club...This huge screen where the palm trees are took up the whole huge wall. I wish it had been a huge wall of lit up marble- that would have been gorgeous.

My favorite detail was the chunky X-base black lacquered trays that they had at every table equipped with glasses, ice, napkins, etc. I wanted to take one out the backdoor! (it's not this one but you get the idea...I couldn't find it anywhere, must have been designed for Prive)

So that was our night... I ended up being more inspired by interiors than by fashion of course!
