The record breaking Dubai Dress

The “Dubai Dress” is not a single garment but a breathtaking four-part ensemble consisting of a golden crown (398 grams), necklace (8,810.6 grams), earrings (134.1 grams), and a waist ornament (738.5 grams). Every detail reflects months of meticulous artistry and the fusion of heritage with modernity. The creation highlights Al Romaizan’s history of innovation, following earlier showstoppers such as a gold-plated bicycle unveiled in a previous edition.

A global showcase of brilliance

The five-day exhibition, held at Expo Centre Sharjah, has drawn over 500 exhibitors and more than 1,800 designers, manufacturers, and jewellers from across the globe. This year, 68% of participants hail from outside the UAE, with exhibitors coming from Italy, India, Türkiye, the US, Russia, the UK, Japan, China, Singapore, Hong Kong, and Malaysia. First-time participants from Australia, Myanmar, and Pakistan add new diversity, while regional players from Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Bahrain, Kuwait, and Lebanon strengthen the event’s standing as the Middle East’s premier jewellery hub.

Distinguished guests and key highlights

The opening ceremony was presided over by H.E. Abdallah Sultan Al Owais, Chairman of the Sharjah Chamber of Commerce and Industry, alongside H.E. Saif Mohammed Al Midfa, CEO of Expo Centre Sharjah. Officials and industry leaders toured the 30,000-square-metre exhibition, stopping at Al Romaizan’s showcase and Salem Al Shueibi Jewellery, which served as diamond and platinum sponsors respectively. The Emirati Goldsmiths Platform has also gained attention, spotlighting homegrown artisans merging cultural heritage with contemporary designs.
