Life Style: Part-Saudi model Shanina Shaik returns to runway
DUBAI: Model Shanina Shaik on Thursday returned to the runway presenting a fashion show in Melbourne for Australian e-tailer David Jones.
The 31-year-old fashion star, who is of Saudi, Pakistani, Lithuanian, and Australian descent, wore three designs from the store’s winter 2022 offerings during the opening show of Melbourne Fashion Festival, running until March 12.
Her first look featured a satin green ankle-length dress with colorful patterns by Australian designer Bianca Spender, while the second gown was a cutout blazer dress in white.
Her final gown was a voluminous black zip-up dress with a plunging neckline by Melbourne designer Toni Maticevski.
Shaik took to Instagram to share a series of images from the event with her 2.7 million followers. Teasing that the new collection was currently available online and in store, she said: “Retuning to David Jones runway last night in my hometown Melbourne.”
Guests at the event included Australian model Jessica Gomes, television host Melissa Leong, model Victoria Lee – who also walked the runway – and TV personality Brooke Blurton.
Shaik’s last audience-packed runway was in 2019 during New York Fashion Week.
In 2020, she took part in the audience-free David Koma showcase during London Fashion Week.
