    Welcome to The Winter Escape Issue.
    For our cover, we are proud to have partnered with Mouawad for a stunning shoot that not onlyleaves our wanderlust feeling satisfied, but also leaves us in awe of the meticulous craftsmanship that the brand carries with it as part of its DNA – a testament of quality in all forms and values we at Emirates Woman live by.
    In this issue we get you ready for party season to close out 2024 and look at taking a break in climbs both hot and cold in The Hot Escape and The Cold Escape. Style wise, we also have you covered with the cosiest pieces for high-altitude adventures in Chalet Chic. Emirati designer Sharifa AlSharif AlHashemi, founder of ONORI, discusses changing the fashion landscape in the UAE in Reinventing Silhouettes, Style expert and wardrobe curator Laura Gabriele discusses holiday dressing in The Style Expert and Pierre Raneiro, Cartier’s Image, Style and Heritage Director, speaks on inspiration and design in Legendary Status.
    The Gift Guide gives us a glimpse into the hero pieces the Emirates Woman team and some of the incredible women we know want to invest in and we look at the best locations to unwind over the holiday season in Suite Stay and An Urban Sanctuary on.

    This year, we built our growing community of inspiring women further, to all of you and the Emirates Woman Team – thank you for being women of depth. This community is built on strong values and a sense of leading with purpose and collaboration. We are all here to lift each other and this is when the magic happens.
