During the holy month, women look for new prayer dresses to wear in Taraweeh prayer or at home as part of Ramadan preparation. Prayer dresses must meet some criteria when it comes to color, design, modesty and comfort.
Nakhla Collection is a newly launched prayer garment brand by Lina Bukhari, a Saudi entrepreneur specializing in fabrics, design and fashion.
Commercial prayer dresses often use bland colors and materials, and are difficult to size correctly. Nakhla Collection’s dresses, however, are designed for multiple uses, and can be used as an abaya.
Made of comfortable and flexible silk fabrics, Indian and Kuwaiti cotton, dantel cloth, and European and Spanish viscose, the brand offers four collections featuring more than 15 simple and unique handmade designs.
Customers can choose from a variety of floral-patterned models or plaid. There are also solid colors and mixed dark and light tones.
The brand’s dresses come in a loose cut structure with zip options for comfort.
Nakhla Collection also offers special seasonal packages such as a Ramadan basket that you can gift to your parents, family or friends. It includes a prayer dress of your choice, a prayer mat with a suitable color, subha beads and an oud burner.

Amira Al-Zuhair continues campaign streak with Ralph Lauren
- French Saudi model in classic, nautical-inspired outfits
- She has also fronted Ramadan campaign for Loro Piana
DUBAI: French Saudi model Amira Al-Zuhair has been on a roll this year, fronting multiple campaigns for global brands, the latest for Lauren Ralph Lauren, a more accessible ready-to-wear line from the US fashion house Ralph Lauren.
In a short video shared on the brand’s Instagram page recently, the model appeared in a classic, nautical-inspired look. She wore a black-and-white striped knit top with a short, buttoned placket, layered beneath a brown leather jacket and paired with high-waisted white shorts.
The outfit was finished with a brown leather handbag detailed with white piping and a nautical-style charm, along with a wide metallic cuff bracelet and delicate drop earrings.
Just last week, Al-Zuhair fronted a Louis Vuitton campaign, which she shared with her followers on her Instagram page. Across the images, she was pictured wearing several looks from the brand in beige, tan and brown tones.
Among the standout looks, she wore a coordinated two-piece consisting of a long-sleeve blouse with decorative detailing across the chest, paired with high-waisted, wide-leg trousers in a similar tone.
In February, she fronted a Ramadan campaign for Italian luxury brand Loro Piana.
She wore a floor-length olive-green dress featuring a V-neckline, defined waist seam and fluid cape-style sleeves falling from the shoulders.
According to the brand’s Instagram caption, the Ramadan capsule highlights “intricate detailing and the beauty of simplicity,” presenting a wardrobe of comfortable silhouettes.
Shot in the warm, diffused light of a pottery artist’s studio, the campaign centered on elongated shapes, clean lines, and a muted palette of sage and sand tones.
Also in February, she posed for Dolce & Gabbana in an evening-ready look centered on a structured metallic dress paired with a matching coat. The fabric was richly textured, featuring intricate floral embroidery and shimmering silver threadwork that caught the light.
Al-Zuhair, born in Paris to a French mother and Saudi father, has walked for Missoni, Maison Alaia, Brunello Cucinelli, Balmain, Tory Burch, Giambattista Valli, Giorgio Armani, Elie Saab and more.
In addition to her runway appearances, Al-Zuhair has featured in campaigns for brands including Prada, Chanel and Carolina Herrera.
