Consumer and trade event Fashion Palette is set to hit Dubai this year.
The event will showcase spring/summer collections to the Middle Eastern fashion market including buyers, media, industry and royalty.
This is not the first international showcase for the event, which takes brands to New York in September each year.
Fashion Palette is pitched as a global platform for designers to present their brands, with the runway gala also ticketed to consumers.
Fashion Palette will stage a local activation at the Art Gallery of NSW on April 4.
The spring/summer collections will feature eleven designer brands, including Sass & Bide, Akira and Nicola Finetti.
Fashion Palette director Sonya Mefaddi said the event is now in its ninth year.
"This is the only collections' launch to showcase spring/summer ranges in Sydney this year.”
