DFW S/S '12 Part 2

Lots of gorgeous gowns were on the runway at Dubai Fashion Week. It's no surprise that many of the designers taking part featured more modest evening dresses; longer lengths, high necklines and full sleeves. Here's hoping they become more readily available to all of us!

Homa Qamar presented chic abayas with generous cuts from her collection.

Mehwish Afzal of Maisha Creations featured some stunning jewel-toned jalabiyas in luxurious fabrics.

Mohammed Al Marri of Dan Couture showcased mainly abayas, but I loved the Asian-inspired kaftan and trouser ensemble.

Wafa Al Kathiri of Malikat Allail showed some glamorous and sumptuous designs, taking inspiration from traditional Arab and Asian clothing.
