Saeed Omar briefed Queen Rania during her visit on Wednesday about the
inspiration behind the app, which launched in 2021. He noted that the startup
aims to reduce people’s reliance on fast fashion and allow clients to customize
their orders by proposing designs that are executed by skilled local tailors.
Omar said the
startup has managed to secure job opportunities for 45 women certified by Bayt
Al Khayt academy, an artisanal educational project established in 2010 to
support local artisans by building their skills, and improving their living
standards.
The academy offers diploma
programs in seven different areas, including sewing, designing, crocheting and
embroidery.
