Audi supports Designers of the Future

Audi has teamed up with leading fashion and glamour magazine, Harper’s Bazaar, to highlight talented young designers during the publication’s World of Fashion event, of which Audi is also the official car sponsor.
Held at the Mall of the Emirates on the 12th of October, “Designers of the Future” transformed the South Galleria of the Mall into a celebration of the hottest new designers in the region and in keeping with the theme of cutting edge design, two premium Audi A7’s were on display to delight guests attending the exhibition.
Commenting on the event, Jeff Mannering, Managing Director of Audi Middle East, said; “Audi prides itself on not only demonstrating the latest technological advances in motoring technology, but is also committed to design innovation and supporting the arts. Our collaboration with Harper’s Bazaar is further illustration of this and we wish all the participants the best of luck.”
Ten hand-picked upcoming designers – Noon by Noor, At a Glance, DAS Collection, Khaleda Rajab Couture, Aiisha Ramadan, KAGE, Michael Cinco, Mauzan, Dinz and Amira Haroon, were each tasked with dressing a mannequin onstage. An Audi A7 for one month will be raffled among all the registered guests of the World of Fashion event.
