Monochrome Monday: The Paled Turquoise Edition
Pale turquoise is summer's quiet power move — cool, polished, and impossible to overlook. Pale turquoise is summer's quiet power move — cool, polished, and impossible to overlook. Main Body: Pale turquoise is summer's most calculated cool — the shade that slips from Dukkan Avantique's breezy linen shirts to Aquazzura's sequined swing with the same unhurried ease. It's the colour that threads through Shosha Kamal's silk scarf, catching the light in a way that feels almost like motion, and the one that turns Nakhlah's zigzag kimono into wearable geometry. In Double A's sharp monochrome co-ord, it plays the foil; in Mina Al Sheikhly's electric mascara, it's the main event. Ciel Moussard wraps it into Italian silk, where it ripples like water on stone. Against metallics, it shimmers; against sun-warmed skin, it lifts. This week, pale turquoise takes its place as the season's quiet power move — alive in linen, sequins, silk, and print, and unforgettable wherever it lands. Dukkan Avantique | Ebb & Flow Linen Shirt Light as a summer breeze, the Dukkan Avantique shirt drapes effortlessly with just the right kiss of paled turquoise. Shosha Kamal | Ramsis Collection This Shosha Kamal silk scarf glides through the day with you, staying cool and effortless from morning to night. Project Kult | Aquazzura Sequin Party Dress Aquazzura's Sequin Party Dress nails that sweet spot between glam and easy — shimmering sequins, a relaxed cut, and just enough movement to keep up with you all night. Nakhlah | Zigzag Kimono Graphic lines meet vibrant bursts — this kimono turns geometry into art you can wear, adding instant character to even the simplest outfit. Double A | Brianna Vest & Celine Skirt This monochrome print ensemble commands attention without shouting. The clean lines and easy drape make it as comfortable as it is striking, while the pattern's graphic rhythm gives it runway energy. Mina Al Sheikhly | Blue Mascara Forget subtle, this cobalt lash sweep turns every blink into a statement. The color is electric yet refined, framing the eyes with an editorial edge that feels both daring and utterly wearable Ciel Moussard | Amel Batita A silk scarf in a print that ripples like water over stone. Pale turquoise here is movement, wrapped in Italian twill.

Egypt's Shosha Kamal Prints Battles on Scarves in Ramses Collection
Egyptian designer Shosha Kamal has just transformed the Battle of Qadesh into silk scarves. Aug 10, 2025 What does the world's first recorded peace treaty have to do with Egyptian designer Shosha Kamal's latest scarf collection? Her new silk accessories pay homage to the Battle of Qadesh under Ramses the Great, a conflict immortalised in history books around the world. True to Kamal's mission, the collection's patterns stand at the intersection of Egyptian heritage and contemporary fashion. Fought in 1275 BCE, the Battle of Qadesh was one of the largest chariot battles in history - and now, its story can be worn around your neck in one of two designs. In the Qadesh Silk Scarf, Ramses the Great charges forward in a horse-drawn chariot, baby-blue bow in hand, framed by layered motifs. The palette - gold threaded with light green - carries into the Naerin Silk Scarf, which honours the soldiers who fought alongside him. Storytelling through design is Kamal's signature, and it has defined her award-winning art, fashion, and culture house. In 2018, President Abdel Fattah El Sisi presented her Scarab Beetle Chair to Melania Trump - a gold stool symbolising transformation and rebirth, and one of the most distinctive gifts ever given to the White House.
