5ivepillars: The coolest hoodie

A hoodie will no doubt help you achieve a laid-back look. This one, by UAE-based brand 5ivepillars, is a favourite piece of mine and is versatile enough to go with anything for a casual day out. 5pillars is a modern streetwear brand built on the influence of Middle Eastern art. Most of their pieces are designed using Arabic art and literature. 5ivepillars was created by LA-based designer Farrukh Ershad, Amsterdam-based designer Emad Shaikh and UAE-based designers Ahmad Mekki and Ahmad Shareef, to bridge the gap between western design and eastern culture, while raising the bar for street fashion in the UAE. This particular piece is printed with the Arabic word for ‘love’. Pair your salmon hoodie with a miniskirt. Dh245 from 5ivepillars.ae
