Dolce&Gabbana Ikmah Fashion Cavalry Show

Jan 27, 2022

AlUla and Dolce&Gabbana celebrated ancient horse heritage in a first-of-its-kind spectacular and exclusive runway show in the unique and private Ikmah Fashion Cavalry Show. Bringing the haute couture of Milan and Paris directly to AlUla, this high-class fashion event was more than just a fashion show. A first-ever Saudi runway event by Dolce&Gabbana brought stunning horses and models together on the runway set in Jabal Ikmah.

AlUla hosted Dolce&Gabbana in a distinctively original runway show with the stunning backdrop of Jabal Ikmah’s ancient scripts. Both male and female models were elegantly dressed by Dolce&Gabbana’s Alta Moda, Alta Sartoria, and Alta Gioielleria. This one-of-a-kind runway also featured world-class Arabian horses and their historical ties with Saudi culture. In collaboration with Athbah Stud, known for hosting and organising equestrian events that reflect the Saudi culture in a modern way, 12 Arabian horses were lavishly decorated. Contemporary luxury Saudi Designer Nora AlShaikh produced the horse handlers’ costumes; her designs reflect a cosmopolitan Arabia bridging tradition and modernity.

Along with exclusive giveaways, the ticketholders of this once-in-a-lifetime event also had the rare opportunity to purchase a one-of-a-kind bespoke haute couture piece. Ticketholders also gained private access to the showroom at the award-winning Maraya, with invitation-only appointments for a customised fitting by Dolce&Gabbana tailors.
