As D3 is not ready yet I have found a fantastic space in Dubai Studio City. It is a great location which is super close to home and has a great NYC loft vibe.
It’s official. I am now a fully licenced member of Dubai Design District. Although currently under construction, it’s going to be an amazing development once it’s complete with a focus on growing the Dubai fashion market.
I have been asked by a number of guys to create a menswear range – so I thought I would take the plunge.
I actually found it quite easy as a number of JHC womenswear pieces can be simply converted to menswear. For instance, I have modified the Ted Shorts and reinvented them for guys.
The only issue is that most of the guys in Dubai are very conservative in their dress. They wear t-shirts or polo shirts and jeans, shorts or chinos. So I’m not expecting the range to be a commercial success, but it’s been a fun experience.
So watch this space as we launch the JHC Menswear range on 28 March.
