Saudi Cup Falcon Dress
The Saudi Cup is not only about horses, though. It is also known for its top-class fashion, so expect lots of camera flashes and glorious gastronomic experiences from a multitude of restaurants and food trucks.
The magnificent falcon-inspired Haute Couture gown that will make its debut at the event is sure to bring the house down. The empowerment of women and the importance of women are among the most important pillars of Saudi society, and Omar has opted for a design that exalts the strength and dignity of the fairer sex.
His ensemble takes cues from the mighty falcon. Saudi women are proud women, and the falcon is an intangible Saudi heritage that displays similar characteristics. A fitted bodice soft flowing lines gracefully leading into a feather-inspired train complements the female silhouette beautifully. The gown is emblazed with Saudi-inspired details creating an awe-inspiring ensemble.
