Imran Amed’s Weekly Letter: 🌍 Dubai

The last time I touched down in Dubai back in 2015, the question I was asked over and over again was whether the Emirati city-state could become a global fashion capital: could it make the leap from being a mere consumer of fashion to a creator of fashion, bringing together the critical elements of a fashion industry ecosystem, from education and design, to manufacturing, finance and technology? ~/AAAHagA~/RgRn172OP0SLaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuYnVzaW5lc3NvZmZhc2hpb24uY29tLz91dG1fc291cmNlPW5ld3NsZXR0ZXJfZGFpbHlkaWdlc3QmdXRtX21lZGl1bT1lbWFpbCZ1dG1fY2FtcGFpZ249RGFpbHlfRGlnZXN0XzE2MDMyNCZ1dG1fY29udGVudD1ib2ZfbG9nb1cFc3BjZXVCCmXvjjj1ZU7ffT1SG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAJA~~ ADVERTISEMENT ~/AAAHagA~/RgRn172OP0QWaHR0cHM6Ly9ib2YudG8vM1BqTjA3TVcFc3BjZXVCCmXvjjj1ZU7ffT1SG3RyaXN0cmFtYmFsZHdpbjkwQGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAAJA~~ WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW TODAY: SATURDAY, MARCH 16, 2024 DUBAI — The last time I touched down in Dubai back in 2015, the question I was asked over and over again was whether the Emirati city-state could become a global fashion capital: could it make the leap from being a mere consumer of fashion to a creator of fashion, bringing together the critical elements of a fashion industry ecosystem, from education and design, to manufacturing, finance and technology? Back then, the big four fashion capitals — New York, London, Paris and Milan — still dominated the industry, and it seemed like a long-shot for Dubai, better known for conspicuous consumption than industry clout, to become a fashion hub of this stature. Eight years later, much has changed on planet fashion. London and New York, while still on the map, have lost ground as global fashion capitals. While London continues be the training ground for the industry’s top creative talent (Chemena Kamali and Seán McGirr who debuted this season as creative directors at [Chloé](~/AAAHagA~/RgRn172OP0TUaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuYnVzaW5lc3NvZmZhc2hpb24uY29tL3Jldmlld3MvZmFzaGlvbi13ZWVrL2NobG9lLXBhcmlzLWZhc2hpb24td2Vlay13b21lbnN3ZWFyLWF1dHVtbi13aW50ZXItMjAyNC8_dXRtX3NvdXJjZT1uZXdzbGV0dGVyX2RhaWx5ZGlnZXN0JnV0bV9tZWRpdW09ZW1haWwmdXRtX2NhbXBhaWduPURhaWx5X0RpZ2VzdF8xNjAzMjQmdXRtX2NvbnRlbnQ9aW50cm9XBXNwY2V1Qgpl74449WVO3309Uht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAACQ~) and [McQueen](~/AAAHagA~/RgRn172OP0TgaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuYnVzaW5lc3NvZmZhc2hpb24uY29tL3Jldmlld3MvZmFzaGlvbi13ZWVrL2FsZXhhbmRlci1tY3F1ZWVuLXBhcmlzLWZhc2hpb24td2Vlay13b21lbnN3ZWFyLWF1dHVtbi13aW50ZXItMjAyNC8_dXRtX3NvdXJjZT1uZXdzbGV0dGVyX2RhaWx5ZGlnZXN0JnV0bV9tZWRpdW09ZW1haWwmdXRtX2NhbXBhaWduPURhaWx5X0RpZ2VzdF8xNjAzMjQmdXRtX2NvbnRlbnQ9aW50cm9XBXNwY2V1Qgpl74449WVO3309Uht0cmlzdHJhbWJhbGR3aW45MEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAACQ~), respectively, were both educated at London’s Central Saint Martins College of Art & Design), the city has been losing ground as a major fashion hub for years. Now, the implosion of Farfetch and Matches, and ongoing troubles at Net-a-Porter, have eroded London’s position as a hub for technological innovation in fashion and placed huge pressure on the city’s independent designers who rely heavily on them for scale and global distribution. Across the pond, the challenges faced by America’s department stores have put similar pressures on New York’s independent brands. At the same time, the city’s one-time status as the industry’s commercial capital has waned, as Parisian mega-brands — Chanel, Dior, Louis Vuitton and Hermès — have surged to previously unimaginable scale. Meanwhile, Shanghai, which had taken the leading position in the race to become the fifth global fashion capital, has become increasingly cut-off from the rest of the fashion industry amid growing geopolitical tensions, a slowing economy and a lingering sense of insularity after Covid lockdowns. But the very notion of a fifth fashion capital may be a thing of the past. In a globalised world, the fashion industry, too, is more global than ever and the concept of fashion capitals may be shifting from a handful of citadels (which Shanghai or any other city might join) to a wider system of hubs, each with its own specialisation, orbiting one increasingly dominant centre: Paris. Milan (and now Mumbai) specialise in offering high-quality manufacturing, London produces top creative talent, Seoul and Los Angeles churn out brand ambassadors. And Paris, truly the world’s fashion capital, is where it all comes together. So where does this leave Dubai? That was the question on my mind as I sat down with more than a dozen fashion professionals last week — several of whom were expats who had come to Dubai for six months only to find themselves still there more than 10 years later — to learn more about life and the behind the scenes of the fashion industry in this city.
