COMPANY PROFILE Amira Haroon JULY 2017 Photograph Courtesy of Getty Images amira haroon www.amiraharoon.com Amira Haroon grew up in Saudi Arabia and pursued her love for art and fashion design in Parsons School of Fashion, The rich culture of the Gulf region played an important influence on her creative journey as a designer. Amira’s wanderlust, along with an abiding love for craftsmanship, vintage pieces and all things Art Deco led to a vivid mood board for what would become the Amira Haroon brand in 2010. Designed with the intention of reflecting the shining personality of the person wearing the clothes, Amira’s collections combine timeless elegance with a breeziness that is needed in today’s age where we are constantly on the go. We value that fashion is out on the streets, in cafes, on podiums, and in offices, creating confidence and helping to shape the different facets of our beautiful, meaningful lives.

  • Framing Modesty Through Muslim Female Fashion Influencers
    FRAMING MODESTY THROUGH MUSLIM FEMALE FASHION INFLUENCERS by Haneen Hindi A thesis submitted to Johns Hopkins University in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Baltimore, Maryland May 2020 © 2020 Haneen Hindi All rights reserved Abstract This study examined how Muslim female fashion Instagram influencers framed the changing notion of modesty throughout their posted content. Posts that used framing theory were purposively selected from six top Arab Gulf influencers from July 1 through December 31, 2019. The captions were studied, categorized into type of framing used (story and spin) and repeated themes were noted. Results demonstrated that these influencers spoke positively of regional modesty trends, especially regarding the range of abaya, hijab and modest wear colors and designs available on the market. This was generalizable across all Gulf influencers, with the exception of Saudi Arabia, as the top influencer in the region shared limited content on framing modesty. Primary Reader and Advisor: Kristen Willett Secondary Readers: Taylor Hahn, Megan Tucker ii Acknowledgements I would like to extend my heartfelt gratitude to my thesis advisor, Dr. Kristen Willett, for her guidance and feedback throughout this process. Without her constant support, this study may not have come to fruition. I would also like to thank Dr. Taylor Hahn and Dr. Megan Tucker for serving on my thesis committee. Finally, I would like to thank my family and friends. A special thank you: to my father, for giving me a role model to look up to both in academia and at home; to my mother, for her unwavering love and care; to my husband, for his encouragement and support; and to my brothers, for the comic relief along the way.

    The State of Fashion 2017 Copyright The Business of Fashion and McKinsey & Company © 2016 The State of Fashion 2017 A world that is uncertain, changing, and challenging by Craig & Karl The State of Fashion 2017 The State of Fashion 2017 was created to provide a comprehen- sive view of the fashion industry—one whose coverage remains fragmented and not systematically reported. Its principal aim is to lay out the interconnectedness of the entire fashion ecosystem across market segments and product categories by distilling the industry’s current and projected performance, and addressing the factors shaping and driving fashion today and in the year to come. To accomplish this, the report relies on extensive qualitative and quantitative analyses, drawing on industry and proprietary sources, including executive interviews, the new BoF-McKinsey Global Fashion Survey, the McKinsey Global Fashion Index, which tracks industry sales, operating profit, and economic profit (value creation) and McKinsey’s FashionScope, a city- level growth forecasting tool for the fashion industry. The report is split into two sections: Section 1 provides a review of the industry in 2016, highlighting the indus- try’s performance across sales, operating profit (EBITA), FOREWORD 6 and economic profit—a measure of value-add that takes into account both the explicit and implicit costs of generating income—and recapping the ten key themes that shaped 2016; Section 2 provides an outlook for 2017, forecasting for the first EXECUTIVE SUMMARY time expected growth for the fashion industry across market 10 segments and product categories, highlighting the top priorities for executives, and defining the ten trends that we believe will set the agenda for the industry over the next 12 months.

  • The Spread of Social Media in the Gcc and the Potential for Its Utilization in B2c Business
    Mitsui & Co. Global Strategic Studies Institute Monthly Report March 2019 THE SPREAD OF SOCIAL MEDIA IN THE GCC AND THE POTENTIAL FOR ITS UTILIZATION IN B2C BUSINESS Ito Mashino EMEA & Russia Dept., Global Economic & Political Studies Div. Mitsui & Co. Global Strategic Studies Institute SUMMARY As elsewhere, social media is spreading rapidly in the member states of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), and its use is expected to grow further with a population growth and a high proportion of young people. Companies are paying close attention to the potential of social media, and have started placing efforts into marketing, making use of influencers, while the royal families of the GCC countries also employ social media as a tool for communicating with their citizens. In some GCC countries, a change in the law to allow 100% foreign ownership of companies is now being considered. Now that the possibility of conducting B2C business without a local partner has come into view, the time has come for foreign companies to seriously consider how social media can be used effectively to enhance their marketing capabilities. THE SPREAD OF SOCIAL MEDIA IN THE GCC Rapid increase in social media users in the GCC According to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications of Japan, social media is a generic term for media that enables information to be transmitted and exchanged easily via the Internet, and it refers to services such as blogs, SNS (Social Networking Services) including Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram, video sharing sites such as YouTube, and messaging apps such as LINE and WhatsApp. According to “Digital in 2018”, published by the marketing companies We Are Social and Hootsuite1, the number of social media users worldwide as of January 2018 (the number of unique users who used social media at least once a month) reached approximately 3.2 billion, a year-on-year increase of 14%, accounting for about 80% of the approximately 4 billion global internet users.
