On a mission to redefine femme fatale in today’s global fashion industry, Kuwaiti designer Yousef Aljasmi is taking over the scene, one glamorous design at a time. Through his eponymous labels, Yousef Aljasmi Haute Couture and Yousef Aljasmi Bride, the uber-talented couturier who launched his label in 2007, continues to produce elegant and luxurious designs that have been embraced by Hollywood’s biggest stars.
Focusing on the need to appreciate the female form through exquisitely designed pieces rich in texture, cut and details, the designer has built a star-studded clientele made up of top celebrities like Mariah Carey, Kim Kardashian West, Kylie Jenner, Kelly Rowland and Cardi B.

In a 2018 conversation with Vogue Arabia, Yousef revealed the secret to his success saying:
“Honestly, I think the reason stars – local, regional, and global – like to wear my brand is because it makes them outshine others. My dresses steal the show…”
“For my pieces to be selected and favored by people from the other side of the world – despite the presence of many storied international fashion houses – is not something to be undervalued,” he added.
With a collection of couture, bridal and casual ready-to-wear pieces that undoubtably stand out, Yousef definitely has the most glamorous sides of womenswear covered. And through a masterful flair and an eye for the finest details, he continues to add a touch of glitz to the dynamic lifestyles of the women who own the spotlights around the world.

Most recently it was Gwen Stefani who turned to Aljasmi when she needed something to wear for her performance at the Macy’s Thanksgiving parade in New York.
Slightly fabulous, no? We’re loving that fringing and her matching headband. So festive, so fun. Perfect for the stage. (Can’t wait to see you, Gwen, by the way.)
Back to those Kardashians we mentioned – Aljasmi has dressed Kylie Jenner several times over the years, but his most recent turn with them was for Kim Kardashian West at Halloween.
Aljasmi recreated Madonna’s Bob Mackie gown for Kardashian, and wow. It’s safe to say he did it justice. We love Kourtney Kardashian’s MJ look, too.
It’s not all stagewear and fancy dress, though. Aljasmi is also well-known for his super-detailed wedding gowns, which made him the perfect choice for Keyshia Ka’oir when she married rapper Gucci Mane.
Dripping in diamonds is absolutely the aesthetic here. Ka’oir tends to take things to a whole other level, and she looks amazing.
