About the Love Affair

Wednesday, December 23rd, 2009

“Aiisha’s Love Affair show took me on a magical and unimaginable journey. I was so taken by Aiisha’s unique talent, her amazing designs, the use of color and overall story telling brought to life through the beautiful models chosen for the show. This was a prefect story that instantly made me fall in love with Aiisha’s collection and her show on Ice.”

Monica Moghab, Brand PR Beauty Manager, Procter & Gamble (Arabian Peninsula)

Keeping my personal relation with Aiisha aside,i was very proud of her as a Dubai-based designer for having gone hand in hand with Victoria Cazal in order to achieve ”LOVE AFFAIR”
the designs were a true reflection of Aisha’s personality : sophisticated and yet very simple

Graziella Kamel, Dubai TV Presenter
I’m really honoured to attend you latest fashion show, practically speaking, i can find the right word to describe what i felt and what i saw …

that’s not a fashion show! it was much bigger than that, it was a tremendous event were beauty and feelings and art worked hand in hand and showed every one the new concept and methods of fashion but in Aiisha’s way!

this event broke all the records that you had before, its a milestone for your next moves and i’m more than sure that you will surprise everyone .

this not a complement and i’m not over exaggerating  .. that’s simply what i felt. and as i always use to tell you before since we were kids.. a brilliant future is waiting for u AIISHA !!

A Barbie® Story

Saturday, October 31st, 2009

It all started with a phone call, and I was jumping with joy.

Barbie is celebrating her 50th birthday and I was invited with other designers to sketch some designs to dress her up for the occasion. Mattel assigned a panel of judges to meet and choose the designs they deem fit for Barbie. I have to admit, I didn’t spare a minute, I was sketching designs without counting, ended up with 25 or more, but I only submitted 16 to the panel, which to my surprise they chose 3 of my sketches to be produced and and go on the catwalk.

As some of you might know, I am in the midst of preparing of my own fashion show in collaboration with Victoria Casal Jewellery and participation from Manolo Blahnik shoes and its taking most of my time, I don’t even have time to update this blog, but I found the time to produce 3 pieces :)

On the 29th of October, 2009 the designs found their way to this year’s Dubai Fashion Week Grand Finale, the Barbie Fashion Show.
