ArabianDate would like to highlight the accomplishments of two Arab
women that have decided to change the game when it comes to online luxury
shopping in the Middle East. Arab women
share common interests with the rest of the world, but sometimes have limited
access to truly explore their passions.
In
these cases, especially talented and ambitious women have risen to the
challenge of becoming successful and carved their own paths. For example, Ruba Abdulhadi and Badea
Jaber have created an e-commerce website for Arab women to access high
fashion runway items and other high-end apparel in a place it is rarely
found—Palestine.
Before
Ruba made the decision to live abroad and pursue an education in Fashion
Marketing and Psychology, she was living in Palestine and noticed that some
people would do the impossible just to acquire luxury fashion items—from which
she drew her inspiration.
"Being Palestinian and
growing up in Ramallah, fashion was just a fantasy or just beautiful models on
a magazine for me" - Ruba Abdulhadi
Her
business partner, Badea began with a different career interest and studied
Political Science at Duke University, but ultimately crossed paths with Ruba
through her cousin. She had been jumping
from industry to industry before finally landing her concentration on
journalism, and began writing about fashion.
When
they met, they hit it off instantly and knew they would become a great team.
The
website, Elmuda.com offers interviews with designers, along with glimpses of
Arab celebrity fashion and how to capture their style.
There
are all types of interesting ladies on ArabianDate ready to discuss their careers
and lives with you. Why not start a
conversation and see where it leads?
