The Bride Show Dubai

The largest and most prestigious bridal exhibition comes to Dubai in April with fashion shows, professional beauty demonstrations, and a wide range of exhibitors ensuring a fashion filled and fabulous week. Taking place from 23-26 April at the Dubai International Exhibition Centre, the event will host more than 20 fashion shows, with local and international designers demonstrating their eagerly anticipated collections as well as the creations devised by the finalists of the prestigious Swarovski Young Designers Award.

Highlights at the show will include a collection from India's leading celebrity fashion designer and style icon, Manish Malhotra, who will be showing a range of specially designed Sheilas, Abayas and Jalabiyas.

Another fashion favourite, Amato Haute Couture, whose collections are filled with beautiful lace and crystals, will be taking the stage on the last night of the event. Furne One, the owner and creative director of Amato Couture, who has trained in New York and Paris, will be displaying his latest collection as well as his new Prêt-Couture line.

Not only will professional designers throughout the region be flaunting their unique creations, but amateur designers and fashion students will be showcasing their wedding dress designs as part of the competition for the much coveted Swarovski Young Designer Award.

Showing on the final day of the exhibition, The Swarovski Young Designer Award pushes contestants to the limit. This year entries will be taking 'The Art of Intimacy' as their source of inspiration. The unique wedding dress creations shown in a glamorous catwalk show will be assessed by a panel of judges formed by eminent personalities in the fashion industry in the UAE.

"The Bride Show Dubai welcomes a large number of brides-to-be every year, as well as women who enjoy fashion, beauty, luxury products and jewellery, " said Daphne Cota, Exhibition Manager of The Bride Show. "Our visitors have the opportunity to meet more than 400 companies from 13 countries showcasing everything from wedding gowns, international haute couture fashion, and hair and beauty services to wedding organisers, venues and honeymoon destinations."

Exclusive discounts and daily competitions will be taking place and one lucky visitor will win the grand prize of a luxury honeymoon package. The Arabian Home Show and Women's Healthcare run alongside The Bride Show Dubai at the Dubai International Exhibition Centre. The events are open daily from 2.30pm - 10.30pm.
