DUBAI: US singer Kelly Rowland showed off a gown by Paris-based, Saudi-helmed label Ashi Studio at the 16th Annual Harlem's Fashion Row Fashion Show and Style Awards at The Apollo Theater in New York on Tuesday.
The singer opted for a black-and-white look hailing from Ashi’s Fall/Winter 2023 collection.
The collection was shown on the official Haute Couture calendar in Paris in July, marking the first time a designer from the Gulf has ever taken part in the event.
Ashi, who joined the Federation de la Haute Couture as a guest member, launched his eponymous house 17 years ago.
Ashi’s designs have been worn by A-list celebrities such as Beyonce, Lady Gaga, Jennifer Hudson, Kylie Minogue, Penélope Cruz, Deepika Padukone, Sonam Kapoor, Queen Rania of Jordan and more.
Ashi previously told Arab News: “I incredibly proud of my Saudi roots … my designs are often influenced by Saudi heritage.”
