Earlier this week,
Arabian Business
revealed that taking part in Dubai Fashion Week “can damage your brand.”
In an outspoken attack, Dubai-based designer and brand consultant
Dipesh Depala told
Arabian Business
said: “I would advise young designers not to be involved, even if they were invited; by association with the DFW, the way it stands at the moment, you’re actually doing a disservice to your brand.”

Arabian Business TV
, went down to Dubai Fashion Week to find out.
