I realise this is a bit late, but here's a short video from the CRYSTALLIZED™ Abaya Design Awards at the Abu Dhabi Bride Show, which took place earlier this year. The winner was Mona Osman Ahmed Badawi, who said:
'I intend to make the most of winning this Award and hope to become a fashion designer within the next year. Currently, I am an architect, but when I look at inspiring designers such as Elie Saab, it gives me hope that I too can make my dreams a reality. This Award is helping me to do that.'
