new york (us)

Couture Fashion Week features in New York during February with some shows having a second stage at Florida's Palm Beach.

Another development in this year's Couture Week, which takes place on February 9th, 10th and 11th, is the debut of a Kuwaiti fashion designer.

Prominent in her own country where she is famous for bridal and evening gowns, Haya al Houti will be presenting her collections for the first time in New York.

Andres Aquino, who produces Couture Week, said: "We are delighted to be able to present the first Kuwaiti couture designer to show in New York City.

"Ms al Houti's exquisite designs are sure to be a hit with our audience as they look for unique and fresh fashions in an ever more competitive market."

Other international designers to be present at the event include Jamil Khansa - the Lebanese winner of 2005's International Fashion Designer of the Year award and Croatian designer Gordana Radic.
