Vogue Arabia - December 2020

この問題で

The December 2020 issue of Vogue Arabia celebrates the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia with five covers dedicated to the country and its people.
The Unesco heritage site of Diriyah, the original home of the Saudi royal family and where the Kingdom was first formed, offers, for the first time ever to a magazine, a regal backdrop to celebrate the heritage of traditional garments and craftsmanship.
The first cover stars five young Saudi women from across the country dressed in their respective regional dress.
In brilliant contrast, the smart city of NEOM, which powers this year’s Vogue Fashion Prize, draws the eye to the next star Saudi models. International Saudi couturier Ashi is also featured on a cover alongside model and Ashi muse Cindy Bruna.
Also inside the Saudi issue, an exclusive feature by the Saudi ambassador to the US, HRH Princess Reema bint Bandar bin Sultan bin Abdulaziz Al Saud. Photographed for Vogue Arabia by her daughter, Princess Sarah bint Faisal Al Saud, she pens a letter to Saudi women.
In fashion, Saudi women’s evolving relationship with the abaya is explored, while in beauty, the Kingdom’s centuries-deep connection with perfume is also underscored. Fragrance in Arabia, a symbol of luxury and indulgence, has inspired lasting trends and brands the world over. Meanwhile, burgeoning ready-to-wear labels by young designers from the Kingdom are featured. Exceptionally, the December 2020 issue pays tribute to the mother of Saudi fine art with an interview with 80-year-old Saudi artist Safeya Binzagr by Saudi gallerist Mashael Al Rushaid. Other stories explore behind the scenes of the flourishing world of Saudi cinema with women, in particular, informing of the roles being offered in front of and behind the camera.
