Thanks all for posting pictures/news of Maxima trip to Africa. It's well worth.

Picture from polfoto.dk, where Rania gives a necklace made by Jordanian women to H. Clinton. It's nice and symbolic gesture/gift. However I don't how much Rania wears jewels made by jordanian. POLFOTO 12.11.1999 Queen Rania (R) of Jordan helps US First Lady Hillary Clinton 12 November 1999...

Indeed, a beautiful necklace. Thanks cute_girl for remark and posting :) Jordanian traditional jewels are beautiful like other jewels in arab/ME region. It's nice to see Rania wearing them as often as she can. I post down a picture from gettyimages where models wear traditional dress and...

Thanks Humera and Zina for explanation :)

I see your point loubna2 and rosa. In one way, I agree that the real reinforcement of the relations between Morocco and Spain takes place at many levels: diplomacy, politics, economy, collaboration between politicians, associations of both countries, etc. In another way, as I said, salma does...

You are welcome rosa, with pleasure :)

I notice that sometimes p. sarah covers her hair and sometimes she doesn't even in Brunei. Does someone have an explanation for that. Thanks.

An exception???!!! I heard of Dubai, NEW DELHI, HONG KONG, BEIRUT, SEVILLA, Muscat ... fashion shows/weeks. Down I post some pictures (from gettyimages) of models who wears traditional dresses made by contemporary designers who are inspired from their own traditions. I post few examples. There...

Yes, the dress of the day was ok. But for the dinner, the silver and the big earrings were too much compare to what other ladies wear. I believe the choice of an evening (day) dress is based on the evaluation of the event … and to me salma choice seems like an over-estimation of the event ... or...

I agree with you rosa. A lot of imagination/inspiration can come with something else than Kaftan ... I saw some which are far away from the formal one. What I know also is that not all people in the world like to modernise their traditional dress. I read an article about this subject, I post it...

Yes, that's evident ... there is always some people who wear extravagant cloths because they like to be noticed or want to be different from others ... people don't have same taste nor same reasoning. An intellectual woman/queen/princess will not wear what an artist wears. The contest is...

Black & white pictures of KH :)

Black & white pictures of KH with family :)

Good point Humera. salma is doing her part to improve collaboration/relation between Spain and Morocco. One article posted in "King Juan Carlos & Queen sofia thread" said: “Queen Sofia has initiated a visit by Algeria, Mauritania and Morocco, to accompany the projects carried out by the Spanish...

I agree with you Reina. Following every move of the royals/presidents is one of the major characteristics of the media in ME/Arab countries. No space/time for others …

I noticed that as well ... I heard 2-3 times Noor' speeches. I believe anybody can avoid being nervous in speeches by practising and repeating. I read some stories about politicians/CEO/... who subscribe in theatre clubs. They say it’s one of the best ways to develop communication skills...

From pictures posted here, I see big variety of Moroccan fashion dresses; I believe it’s due to designer’s work/creativity or/and background and inspiration. In one the website posted before, I read that some designers: - prefer to keep the dress traditional (2 pieces, slits, etc). - others...

Thanks Al_bina for the post; it’s an interesting information. Interesting as we know the humanity' age is of thousands of years; people were moving around and exchanging habits/cultures/etc.

Why you understand a dress can't be worn is a "Big word" ???!!! Yes, to my opinion some Moroccan fashion dresses can't be worn ... like some other fashion dresses around the world ... Some designers present few outfits just for creativity/fun/show ... and if a client loves a model the...

I agree that the nice look has great place in every society … but I don’t believe it is credible when it comes to decision taking and being at the head of a country/government. As I said in “Rania fashion” thread, some people may not made major record of achievements, but the resemblance to a...

Hi rosa, I agree with you and I see what you mean. I notice as well that the princesses' dresses look different from what some designers offer ... So I guess some Moroccan fashion outfits can't be worn ...

I think if the designer him/herself doesn't say clearly that his/her work/collection have Moroccan inspiration, it will be difficult to know. For instance an indian designer Ranna Gill said she uses moroccan styles in her 2004 collection http://rannagill.com/html/morocco.htm Designer Ranna...

Thanks for answer Monalisa. I thought it's interesting to know how Moroccan designers succeed in mixing wonderful styles/colors/fabrics to come with fashion dresses ... For sure that's need moroccan background and maybe some international studies/research/experience/influence ...
