Drones are flying, clothes are floating, but models are missing & hellip; & hellip; this is the Saudi Arabian fashion show. Is such a wonderful fashion show confusing? Why don't Saudi fashion shows use people as models?
According to CNN on June 7 local time, Hilton Hotel in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, launched a drone at this year's fashion show, hanging a clothes hanger and walking on catwalk.
Why does Saudi Arabia hold such a fashion show without models?
A spokesperson for the event told CNN that every Ramadan, the hotel holds fashion exhibitions. This year, the company hosting the show decided to use drones instead of models to 'bring some change.'.
In an interview with BBC Arabic Channel, an organizer of the show said they were proud that the show was unprecedented in the Gulf countries and had been ready for two weeks. He said the show with drones' suits Ramadan 'and' everything is full of innovation. '
There has been a precedent for such a fashion show, with Italian brand dugabana displaying handbags with drones in February this year. However, the report said that the style of showing bags and clothes like Saudi Arabia has never been seen.
According to the daily mail, female models are not needed because there will be a male audience at the scene. In April, Saudi Arabia hosted the country's first fashion week, but there were many restrictions: only female audiences, no social media, no male designers coming out of the background to the show.
However, the official explanation of the event did not mention the issue of female models, but focused on 'innovation'.
The Washington Post pointed out that although the original intention of the event was to be creative and attractive, replacing female models with drones in cities where women were still imprisoned by conservative ideas did attract ridicule or anger.
According to the report, Saudi Arabia is a conservative country, which also requires women to wear robes, headscarves and veils in public. But in relatively free Jeddah, these requirements are less stringent.
Salman, who was appointed new crown prince in June last year, advocates' moderate Islam '. He said: 'we want to live a normal life and hope our religion and traditions can be more tolerant. In this way, we can become a part of global development in the company of the whole world. '
Since then, the ban on women driving and watching concerts has been lifted.
The video of the "nobody" fashion show went crazy on twitter. Some netizens paid attention to the status of Saudi women, but most netizens said it was funny. Others said it was like ghost movies.
The painting style of more people is still like this:
I can't help it. I can't help it. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha & hellip;
