How to wrap khaleeji way sheylah without any pin
Khaleejia said: May be this video will not liked by everyone, but i did it to show you another creative way on how to wrap sheylah gambo3a style without any pin and to cover all hair . Remember Rabia Z. she was doing very unusual to khaleeji style wrap as well. so I deleted the first comments as consider that there is no need to describe all other styles here. Just like it or don't all up to you.
Good luck to all.

Unites Arab Emirates’ got talents!
People in UAE are really amazing. Whether they are rich or not very , famous or not yet but they are active, talented and challenging. They always searching who they are what is their talent and what they could do to make the world better. It is big words but what can i do if i meet such people only!
Meet Cornelia!
Name: CORNELIA BACIU
Nationality: Romanian (married to Emirati)
Romanian Mixed Media Artist and Wearable Art Designer born in Bucharest in 1979, with a Bachelor’s Degree in Philology Foreign Languages and Translation - living and working in Abu Dhabi since 2008. Until recently I had a full time job but I have decided now to concentrate on my passion -wearable art design (I would like to thank my wonderful husband for all the support in making my dream come true). I had always created my own accessories because I am the kind of person who wants to escape from the ordinary and make a statement. It all started when family and friends began admiring my designs and soon more and more people contacted me to create unique pieces for them and to exhibit my work in galleries and different venues in Europe and Abu Dhabi. At the moment for the entire month of August 2011 my work is exhibited in Ghaf Art Gallery in Abu Dhabi.
The purpose of my artwork is to show that even though we are used to see art only in museums or art galleries we can bring it to life in a different way - reinventing and reinterpreting it in original and unique sculptural constructions of mixed media wearable art.
I create unique designs for those who appreciate art and beauty, for the person that wants to escape from the ordinary and make a statement. The purpose of my creations is to reflect the personality of the individual who wears them and to make her more special because of its unique appearance, the originality, the bold and daring design and not necessarily because of the preciousness of the material.
I focus in particular on combined contemporary design and various mixed media techniques, creating unusual works of wearable art using acrylic, inks, polymer clay, wire and resin. My designs can be considered bold and daring, they capture the attention of people around us and they are meant to be out of the ordinary, to make a statement and express the personality of the person who wears them. Each piece is one of a kind, meticulously handmade and hand painted and cannot be exactly reproduced. It is meant for a person who wants to be original and to be able to say “no one else has what I am wearing!” For the moment my studio is not a very big workspace but inshallah it will be expanded by the end of November.
Regarding the creating process -
first I choose a painting or a sculpture that inspires me or the customer presents me with one that she would like me to use as inspiration. After that I draw a sketch of the necklace or set – I never go anywhere without my sketching pad! I select the colors and the materials that I want to use. Unfortunately the materials that I am using cannot be found in UAE so I have to order them from the US or Europe.
Many of my clients (Emirati or Arab) order pieces that go very well with abayas (I love wearing my creations with abaya as well ). I love UAE as it is now my second country and I respect the traditions and the heritage and I include this many times in my designs. One of my latest creations is a piece inspired by Sheikh Zayed Mosque that is exhibited for the entire month of August at Ghaf Art Gallery in Abu Dhabi.

ART OF ABAYA BY AMAL AL SAEED
Market of abaya brands is getting huge in the GCC nowadays. But there are some unique brands that inspire you to wear abaya more and more . I’d like to introduce you one of such unique and new brand. Amal Al Saeed is an Emirati designer owner of an ART OF ABAYA brand.
The ART OF ABAYA was launched in 2011. Amal says, thanks to Mercy of Allah her designs get everybody’s satisfaction .
Her clients are as from UAE as from outside the country(GCC, Yemen, Egypt, UK, USA). I think, because her abayas’ lines are simple, classic and beautiful.
Amal believe that simplicity is an art itself, that very few can deal with it. (Totally agree)
I love her designs, and i know she is doing what she really likes as creating abayas was her childhood dream and we all know that dreams can come true if we really try to make them true (by Will of Allah). Amal is an ambitious designer who found her own style and way in creating abayas.
Abaya has become an official dress in all occasions, as day & evening outfit, for rich or for an average income ladies, we all started be more concentrated on it by trying to catch the time & fashion’s season changes, searching brands who are also IN.
This gave Amal an idea to cooperate with customers by allowing them to put their options and requirements on the existing model of abaya that she has created by determining their own preferences of the size (such as length, width, etc) COLORS, types of materials, and even kinds and quantity(increasing or decreasing) of DECORATION, means that you can choose any kind of decoration you like, pearls or Swarovski elements, laces or handmade patterns and so on until you get your best looking, comfortable, stylish and chic abaya as just you’ve ever wished. All variety you can find on her site as all of this manipulation you can do with a couple of clicks exactly there! No need to arrange meeting, fly to UAE or visit the shop or their tailor as It is absolutely distant-order option and plus has a worldwide delivery service as well.
Amal Al Saeed says, “Also, ART OF ABAYA creates special designs for different clients. What they need to provide is an idea of that dream abaya they wish, material they prefer to use, and what is the desired decoration . And the rest is for the designer )) ".
Some can think that this extra-service will cost a lot. I must say that prices of her abayas are average hardly exceed 1000 Dhs. ((Unless your requirements arn't sky-high))
Amal named her first collection as “Start”, inshallah, she will continue designing more & more successful collections that will match different tastes.
I like that Amal Al-Saeed is an open-minded, professional abaya designer with a fresh ideas who puts her customers’ wishes on the first place. Thumb up!
Here is her “Start”
and my favorite one

كثير من الأحلام تصبح حقيقة إذا حاول صاحبها تحقيقها وارت أوف ابايا كان حلم الطفولة للمصممة الإماراتية أمل السعيد التي كانت تطمح بان يكون لها خط خاص بها في التصميم
ولان العباية أصبحت اليوم اللبس الرسمي في جميع المناسبات صبحاً وليلا فكان التركيز عليها أكثر
وبتغير الوقت والزمن والتطور الذي نواكبه كان من الرائع أن ندمج التصاميم بهذا التطور فكانت فكرة تصميم العباية الكترونيا حيث تستطيع كل سيدة أينما كانت داخل أم خارج الإمارات باقتناء العباية التي تحوز على إعجابها وهي في منزلها بمجرد ضغطه زر فما عليها سوى اختيار العباية وإدخال المقاسات الخاصة بها مع مرونة التغيير في الألوان و القصات وزيادة الشغل اليدوي أو تقليله في العباية لتتواصل معها المصممة لتصل وإياها إلى العباية المريحة والراقية في أن واحد.
في 2011 كانت بداية الموقع الالكتروني لارت أوف ابايا وبفضل الله حازت التصاميم على رضا الجميع داخل وخارج الإمارات لان أرت يوفر التصاميم الراقية و القصات البسيطة والمحتشمة بكل فن لتواكب الموضة بشرط أن لا تخرج العباية من المفهوم التي لبست من اجله
عالم العبايات أصبح مزحوما بمصممات رائعات ولكل واحدة خطها وطريقتها ولكن خط أمل السعيد هو مواكبة الموضة مع المحافظة على البساطة وعدم التكلف فيها بالإضافة إلى مراعاة الوقت والزمن فالبساطة فن لا يبدعه الكثير
بالنسبة للعملاء فأكثرهم من الإمارات العربية، البحرين، الكويت، قطر، عمان، اليمن، المملكة المتحدة و الولايات المتحدة الأمريكية واليمن ومصر .
كما ويقوم أرت بعمل تصاميم خاصة و حصرية لكثير من العملاء فما عليها سوى إعطائنا الفكرة أو المادة التي تفضل أن نستخدمها في العباية وتترك الباقي للمصممة أمل لتكون لها الفكرة كاملة وتنفذ لتحوز على إعجابها وتلبي مطالب كل امرأة مع توفير خدمة التوصيل لجميع أنحاء العالم
بالنسبة للمواد المستخدمة في العباية متنوعة مثل الكريستال فكثير من النساء يفضلونه ، الخيوط والتطريز، العمل اليدوي والذي يركز على الإكسسوارات كما يمكنا إضافة أنواع مختلفة من القماش في نفس العباية وبالتأكيد اللؤلو فهو المفضل لدى المصممة.
بخصوص الكولكشن الأول باسم البداية وان شاء الله ستستمر التصاميم بمختلف الأفكار لنرضي جميع الأذواق.
