From December 10, Dubai’s Mall of the Emirates boutique will house Lady Dior bags created by Mat Collishaw, Ian Davenport, Marc Quinn and Jason Martin from the United Kingdom and Matthew Porter, Chris Martin and Daniel Gordon from the United States.
The artists were given free rein to put their personal stamp on a signature bag, clutch and silk scarf in the limited edition line, which will only be exhibited in six countries.

Cultural fiesta
What: The Al Burda Festival
When: November 14 (from 10am)
Where: Warehouse421, Abu Dhabi
The Al Burda Festival is a celebration of Islamic art and culture, featuring talks, performances and exhibitions. Organised by the Ministry of Culture and Knowledge Development, this one-day event opens with a session on the future of Islamic art. With this in mind, it is followed by a number of workshops and “masterclass” sessions in everything from calligraphy and typography to geometry and the origins of Islamic design. There will also be discussions on subjects including ‘Who is the Audience for Islamic Art?’ and ‘New Markets for Islamic Design.’ A live performance from Kuwaiti guitarist Yousif Yaseen should be one of the highlights of the day.
