Designing and Constructing Haute Couture Dresses

You can get an idea of just how much work has gone into making the dress. The closer you look the more of an idea you get of the hours that must have gone into these creations of couture.

Sheikha Mozah Fashion

 Sheikha Mozah bint Nasser Al – Missned: is a princess. Sheikha Mozah’s wedding to Emiro Hamad bin Khalifa al-Thani as the second of his three wives, and now a mother of the heir to the throne, makes her Queen of Qatar.

But she is also Queen of Qatar fashion. Class of 1959, Sheikha Mozah Bint Nasser Al Missned – that’s her full name – loves fashion : Valentino, Jean-Paul Gaultier, Chanel, the haute couture designer Stephane Rolland are only some of the houses she prefers. She is often seen wearing fashion worn on catwalks which personally it looks better on her than on the models.
