My Story – Effa Al Dabbagh

Since I can remember, I’ve had an appreciation for beauty and refined craftsmanship.  I grew up in a family of stylish and strong-willed women where my mother was an inspiration as was my Saudi heritage. My first real project was designing the brides maid dresses for my older sister’s wedding when I was  just 11 years old. Even then as a young girl, if faced with the choice, I would chose one beautifully made designer piece over having several less interesting pieces.
