Dubai Luxury Fashion & Jewellery: Alaïa, DTOPAZ, Aya Muse & KHAITE

THE TBM WEEKLY EDIT

Directional flats, better denim, jewellery with intention, the quiet knit and one knockout red accessory

Hello Beauties,

This week is less about adding more and more about choosing well. Alaïa gives us two wardrobe foundations with real point of view, DTOPAZ brings meaning and individuality into jewellery, Aya Muse makes a case for knitwear with quiet presence, while KHAITE delivers the kind of red accessory that can change an entire look in seconds.


01 — Alaïa Ballet Flats

Alaïa’s ballet flats have that rare ability to make even the simplest outfit look considered. The mesh construction keeps the silhouette light, while the buckle fastening adds just enough structure. With relaxed denim, sharp tailoring or a long fluid skirt, they bring something directional without making the rest of the look work too hard.

The Everyday Upgrade
A flat with enough personality to lead the look — and enough ease to wear on repeat.

02 — Alaïa Denim

Good denim should make getting dressed easier. Alaïa’s relaxed silhouette has enough structure to create presence without losing that effortless quality we want from a jean. A fitted knit, crisp white shirt or tailored blazer is really all it needs.

The Wardrobe Anchor
Keep everything else clean and let the proportion of the denim set the tone.

03 — DTOPAZ: Jewellery With Intention

DTOPAZ — contemporary jewellery with meaning and intention


Jewellery becomes more interesting when it carries something beyond decoration. Founded by Diana Topaz, DTOPAZ is built around exactly that idea, placing gemstones — and the personal meaning we attach to them — at the centre of the brand.

Each piece starts with the possibility that jewellery can act as a personal symbol: of confidence, love, abundance, strength, success or an intention entirely its wearer’s own. The result feels expressive without losing refinement — vivid gemstones, intricate forms and pieces designed to feel individual rather than anonymous.

Why It Made The Edit
Because the jewellery we remember is rarely only about how it looks. DTOPAZ gives colour and craftsmanship a more personal reason to be worn.


With Emirati Women’s Day approaching on 28 August, the timing feels particularly relevant. Founded in the UAE by Diana Topaz, DTOPAZ reflects the confidence, creativity and ambition of women building distinctive brands in the region — while remaining rooted in something deeply personal: choosing what you want to carry with you.

A Note For TBM Readers
DTOPAZ is offering TBM readers 20% off from 24 August to 24 September 2026. Use code #TBMagazine at checkout.

04 — Aya Muse Asha Cardigan

The best knitwear rarely needs to announce itself. Aya Muse’s Asha cardigan gets its impact from proportion instead: a soft neutral tone, high neckline and rounded sleeves give it shape while keeping the overall effect understated. It works just as well on its own as it does layered over a simple base.

In Dubai, it also solves a very real wardrobe problem — moving between summer heat, aggressively air-conditioned interiors and cooler evenings without sacrificing the look.

The Quiet Hero
Soft, refined and useful — exactly the kind of piece that earns repeat wear.

05 — KHAITE Blake Clutch

Sometimes the smartest styling decision is simply adding one exceptional accessory. KHAITE’s Blake clutch keeps the silhouette pared back and lets saturated red leather do the talking, with restrained gold-tone hardware providing just enough polish. Against black, cream, denim or tailoring, the effect is immediate.

This is not the bag that needs to match the outfit. It is the bag that makes the outfit.

The Finishing Move
Use it as the only hit of colour and stop there.

The Edit At A Glance


The TBM Take

The common thread this week is simple: every piece has to earn its place. That might mean sharpening what is already in the wardrobe, introducing colour without overcomplicating the look or choosing jewellery that carries something more personal than decoration alone. Luxury feels most relevant when it adds something distinct — not simply something new.

Happy shopping — see you next week.
