Mishael Al-Rajhi designs for stylish, elegant women

Twenty-six-year-old Saudi designer Mishael Al-Rajhi has always been a huge fan of fashion. Ever since she was little, she loved dressing up, mixing and matching clothes according to her fashion sense. The designer has two fashion brands, Mishael Al-Rajhi and Micci & Mishi.

“Mishael Al-Rajhi is for the couture and evening fashion line. It is my own way of artistic interpretation using fabrics,” she said. “Micci & Mishi is my high casual brand for men and women inspired by my concept of style intertwined with polarized personalities. It’s noveau chic and somewhat avant garde. It’s a bit edgy or sometimes comprises classic pieces with a twist,” she added.

Arab News met with the designer during Ramadan’s annual event Bizat Al-Reeh in Jeddah where she exhibited her Ramadan and Eid collection. In a discussion with Arab News, Al-Rajhi told us more about her passion for fashion, her collection and her future plans:

Your designs are a beautiful blend between culture and modernity, how did you manage to do that?

I believe that everything you design and regardless of where you get your inspiration from, you would find a way to tie it with your culture. Who we are influences what we do and it will flow into your designs whether or not they’re modern or even futuristic.

What are the materials that you usually like to work with in your collections?

There’s no specific material I favor over the others. I am usually mixing light and thick fabrics, I like materials that have texture.

Tell us about your Ramadan/Eid, Spring/Summer collection.

Thoubé is a mix of my understanding and expression of what this season means without missing out on the vibrance of summer. In a way, I was inspired by the trips that are close to my heart. It’s an interpretation of the season’s festive vibe, tradition meeting serendipity on the cobblestone streets of Paris. It’s Eid at Champs Elysees, Iftars at Tiffany’s and a Parisian Ramadan, as I see it.
