Charlotte Buchen has produced a video for The New York Times that was shot in Qatar's Souq Waqif.  

Fahad Al Obaidly, a fashion designer featured in the video, explains how to wear traditional garments and then add a modern twist.

The video explores how the younger Qatari generation has embraced their roots and turned it around with some modern accesories here and there. This is becoming a trend in Qatar.

Here is the video:

Absolutely ridiculous people, feeling their time with unnecessary and shallow aspirations. Is this why you were created to do?...need a serious reality check, and serious Islamic studies!!!!!

to the girls who look like the pink girl if you want to be good looking thats not the way, its a personal thing but to be honest I think its better to look like the last girl or like the first girl, to us men you look very funny and scary at the same time and the reason you might get some men to talk to you or get your number is because: 1.you look like you have no respect for yourself even tho you might 2.your looks say that you are needy 3.you look unconfident 4.you actually look uglier(most men go for the uglier in the group because they are scared of rejection), and those men will break up with you in less than a month because they slowly find out you are not the one they want and they cant stand it.
