According to the famous proverb, “time and tide wait for no man”. Things certainly are shifting in and around the Middle East and North Africa, and if you want to make hay, perhaps it is time to put yourself where the sun shines and the markets are on the up. Luxury fashion constitutes the bulk of sales in the global personal luxury goods industry, and has a healthy growth outlook over the next five years. The current changes in economic currents are seeing a rise in digital, which does imply risk, but also offers great opportunity. Annual sales in the MENA region currently amount to €50 billion, and spending in some GCC (Gulf Cooperation Council) countries is among the highest per capita in the world.  Dubai is the shopping capital, and despite complications in the region, it also presents significant opportunities for the fashion industry, as it continues to play a key role as the window to the fashion world. Women are now playing an active role in the workforce, and the luxury fashion industry in the Middle East is thriving and set to soar. To make the most of the opportunities available in this region, fashion players will need a strong retail strategy, intimate customer knowledge, as well as an ability to perform on multiple channels and across multiple territories. A solid education is a key to success in this field: creatives will need guidance from industry experts to help harness their skills and help them navigate this exciting part of the world where East meets West.
