FOUR ARAB FASHIONISTAS PROVE THAT THE RIGHT TORY BURCH OUTFIT AND THE RIGHT FRIENDS CAN TURN ANY STREET INTO A RUNWAY.

Tory & The City ;)
In the heart of New York City, where dreams twinkle brighter than the skyline, four Arab talents: Jood Aziz, Jory Al Maiman, Julia Hussein, and Alaa Balkhy, strut the streets dressed in the best of Tory Burch’s Fall 2024 collection. As they navigate the urban jungle, their outfits speak louder than words, showcasing a vibrant fusion of culture and couture.

HMUA 2: SEVIL TAI – PRODUCTION: DIALA MAKKI

Jood, with her signature flair, reminds us that “the most important thing is to enjoy your life, to be happy, it’s all that matters.” Jory, ever the socialite, quips, “I like my money right where I can see it… hanging in my closet!” Julia brings the charm, declaring, “I couldn’t help but wonder: is there anything more fabulous than a Tory dress paired with good company?” And Alaa, the eternal optimist, adds with a smile, “Maybe our real soulmate is our wardrobe!”

Together, they navigate the city’s buzz, proving that style knows no borders, and friendship, much like fashion, is best when shared. In a city that never sleeps, these four Arab fashionistas are living proof that the right outfit, and the right friends, can turn any street into a runway.

Let’s also not forget that in Burch’s words, they aimed at making the everyday sublime: “an old jacket, a lampshade, even a shower cap” which also shows in this fashion editorial. With angular dresses that echo the geometry of a lampshade and everyday pieces reinterpreted through innovative techniques, it’s a celebration of sensuality and creativity.

The Tory Burch’s Fall/Winter 2024 collection is all about redefining everyday elegance. “For this season, we explored volume and silhouette in new ways: think sharp edges, unusual textures, and a touch of sporty flair,” Burch notes. Architectural shapes crafted from the inside out bring a refreshing twist to your wardrobe. Raw-cut seams and bonded materials add dimension without the weight, proving that style can be both structural and light. Imagine squared-off skirts and precise blazers juxtaposed against hyper-feminine dresses that whisper sophistication. The collection flirts with contrasts—glossy faux croc next to frayed wool and unraveling ruffles, all while our signature accessories evolve with playful pieces like the Pierced pump and a chic 3D-printed minaudière.
