the region, a tactical addition by FFWD to extend the breadth of the event while

attracted a number of first-time buyers from abroad to its new location in the
Dubai Design District. Senior executives from retailers including Harvey Nichols
Hong Kong, Galeries Lafayette in Paris and Moda Operandi came to see the 39
apparel and accessories designers from Dubai and its surrounding region that
were showcased during the four-day event.
