 The Sharq Village Hotel was glamoured on the 16th of Januray on a  Sunday evening by two young aspiring fashionistas.  Fatma Al Thani and Noor Al Thani. Both owners of fashion blogs, Noor and Fatma have achieved a great deal and established their names in under a year. Their blogs receive approximately 3000 visitors daily, not only within the Gulf region but World Wide. They have interviewed some of the most influential names in the fashion world, created affiliations with companies such as net-a-porter.com, and it is due to such continuous ambition that they have come to start their very own Qatar based High Fashion and Lifestyle Magazine.

The HauteMuse team was very happy to collaborate with such influential people in the fashion world, which in return, led to such a rewarding and highly successful event.

All were pleased with the quality and success of this event and placed a great number of orders, on many of the luxurious garments HauteMuse and MatchesFashion of London had to offer.
