Step into a world of dramatic elegance with the full runway show of *Atelier Hekayat’s Spring/Summer 2026 collection, “A Ticket to the Theater,”* presented at the globally expanding Riyadh Fashion Week (RFW) in October 2025. Founded by the visionary Saudi sisters Alia and Abeer Oraif, Atelier Hekayat ('Stories') is known for crafting demi-couture that is both deeply rooted in Hejazi culture and boldly avant-garde. This collection is a tribute to the transformative magic of performance and the 'silent heroes' who bring stories to life, both on stage and in fashion.
The Oraif sisters transformed the Bedrock venue into a theatrical stage, showcasing a collection that is a powerful blend of contrast, confidence, and artistic rebellion. They were celebrated by the Saudi Ministry of Culture and are key players in the nation's Vision 2030 push to position Riyadh as a major global fashion capital. Their work seamlessly merges traditional outerwear (such as abayas) with luxurious, theatrical high fashion, making their pieces highly desirable for a global luxury audience.
🎭 Key Trends & Design Highlights:
*Theatrical Contrast & Drama:* The collection primarily utilizes a striking **black-and-white palette**, exploring the interplay of light and shadow, and purity versus sensuality. This dramatic contrast emphasizes the sharp tailoring and bold silhouettes, giving the garments a cinematic feel.
*Sculptural Volume & Sharp Tailoring:* Expect exaggerated volumes, sweeping silhouettes, and fluid capes that create a dynamic interplay between structure and movement. Sharp tailoring is used for dramatic effect, giving traditional forms a modern, structured edge that is commanding and confident.
*Opulent Embellishment & Heritage:* The garments are rich with the intricate, artisanal details the brand is known for, reflecting a deep respect for local craftsmanship while meeting the standards of international couture. Delicate hand-beading, luxe silks, and intricate detailing transform fabric into narrative.
*Reimagined Outerwear:* Atelier Hekayat continues its mission to elevate traditional outerwear, presenting sophisticated coats and jackets that serve as high-fashion statement pieces, blending Hejazi cultural heritage with global couture trends.
