Saudi Arabia is set to host its first ever Arab Fashion Week in March, overturning decades of draconian policies on arts and entertainment.
The Dubai-based Arab Fashion Council announced that the fashion week would be held in Riyadh from March 26 to March 31, with a second edition already scheduled for October.
This is Listed as an international fashion week alongside Paris and Milan.
In the past, Arab Fashion Week has been hosted so far exclusively by Dubai.
