Jobs and Careers at Maison Alaïa in Dubai ,United Arab Emirates, Riyad,Saudi Arabia
Since 1964, Alaïa is a legendary Parisian Couture Maison, which, beyond fashion, reveals the power of femininity and the timelessness of beauty in the spirit of its namesake creator.
Open to inspiration from all cultures and artistic fields, the free and uncompromising mind of Azzedine Alaia still imbues the Maison’s invention in all things.
At its heart, the ateliers perpetuate Alaïa's pioneering approach to the body as sculpture; crafting through fabric, cut, and silhouettes, limitless interpretations of a woman's beauty.
Mythical creations that move from day to evening are sculpted in innovative materials and in its legendary knit. They reflect both allure and comfort, structure and fluidity, as an ode to a universal femininity.
Azzedine Alaïa, a legendary master of cut, changed the look of fashion in the 80’s with his sculptural silhouettes. Today, the Belgian Creative Director Pieter Mulier, perpetuates his quest of perfection and modernity, sharing the same technical skills and passion for arts. Shape driven creations and iconic knits are sculpted on the body, crafting unique interpretations of the free beauty of women
