A glimpse into the life of award-winning Saudi designer Jadallah
born twice
Jadallah is a Saudi fashion designer who held his first fashion show in 1998, and participated in the Project Runway program that was broadcast on Al-Mustaqbal TV. Since his childhood, Jadallah's role model was the Dominican designer Oscar de la Renta. Jadallah held his first professional fashion show in London on the first day of Fashion Week 2013 at the Claridge's Hotel, after establishing his own fashion house in the city of Jeddah on the Red Sea coast in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. The English press praised Jadallah's talent and designs, saying that they were suitable for Hollywood actresses, and that his shows were very luxurious and royal.
Perhaps the most dazzling show of Fashion Week was that of British-Saudi designer Turk Jadallah, who sent an extravagant array of hand-made dresses into the ballroom of the Claridge's Hotel, as guests tried to destroy the endless supply of champagne and canapés.

The young Saudi designer Turki Jadallah is one of the young designers who made their way with difficulty at the beginning of their careers. His colleagues’ mockery of his desire to work as a designer led him to become one of the most famous designers in London, where he held his first professional fashion show there during Fashion Week.
“My first serious design in the fashion world was a wedding dress that I had been sketching and imagining in my mind for a long time. I faced many difficulties when trying to design this dress, to the point that I felt doubtful that perhaps I could only sketch my designs but not actually execute them…”
