The Oriental Fashion Show at the Carrousel du Louvre Museum during the Paris Fashion Week.

The Oriental Fashion show is the first international fashion event dedicated to the Couture and the Eastern fashion. Established in Paris and organized in 10 other countries, it has been working since 15 years to transform the traditional fashion, filled with symbolic meaning and history, into modern trends oriented to the international market with a good strategic positioning.

Throughout its many productions, the Oriental Fashion Show has been successful in promoting more than 100 designers from 50 different countries and pursues its commitment for fashion designers and the culture.

This year the host for the 34th edition of the  Oriental Fashion Show in Paris was Carrousel Du Louvre – the center of art and culture. This event promoted the Marvels of the Silk Route.

OFS also organized shows in London, Milan, New York, Moscow, Saint Petersburg, Istanbul, Baku, Kuwait, Doha, Marrakesh, Dubai, Almaty.

Many talented designers from Saudi Arabia, Azerbaijan, Morocco, Kazakhstan,Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, Turkestan, Tajikistan, Lebanon, Egypt, Kuwait, Tunisia, Italy, and Moldova presented their new collections.

During this show Egyptian designer Hany El Behairy presented the third most expensive wedding gown embroidered with hundreds of diamonds valued at 15 million dollars!

All collections were unique and impressive. All the designers who participated in this luxury event let us enjoy the high end art of the haute couture.

I could feel myself like a part of the oriental fairytale being surrounded by the most beautiful princesses in the world.

Over the years, the OFS became a true artistic forum, a cultural dialogue between East and West.
