It’s the end of our Summer of Style 2023 era – and over the course of these past 12 weeks, we’ve created some truly unforgettable memories with Abu Dhabi Retail. We celebrated fashion, beauty, and life at large across Abu Dhabi’s most spectacular malls and stores.
Our exciting Summer of Style journey began at Carolina Herrera Abu Dhabi mall, and it ended at Gap Galleria Al Maryah Island. We’ve styled clothes, bags, accessories, and we’ve customized every fashion item imaginable. As they mingled over delicious finger foods and refreshing drinks, our Cosmo invitees felt like their most stylish selves.
But Cosmo ME x Abu Dhabi Retail’s Summer of Style would not have been complete without our exceptional guests. Every week, we were joined by the most in-demand artists, fashion and beauty influencers, and lifestyle icons at Abu Dhabi Retail’s Summer of Style.
Basically, we want to introduce you to the influential women that graced Summer of Style with their wonderful presence. With love, Cosmo.
