Some moments define elegance, and Tyra Banks delivered one of them at Fashion Trust Arabia wearing a custom-designed couture gown made exclusively for her by Tabja. This look was created to match her exact measurements, sculpted to highlight her strength, poise, and signature presence.

A Dress Designed Just for Her

Tyra’s gown was handcrafted through our Tabja Made-to-Measure service, a process that allows clients to request a fully personalized couture piece tailored to their body.
Designed with a sculpted gold corset, a soft black gown drape, and a dramatic floor-length cape, the look blends bold structure with feminine movement. Every detail was shaped based on Tyra’s exact proportions to ensure the perfect fit on the red carpet.

From Sketch to Final Couture

Every custom creation at Tabja begins with a hand drawn sketch designed to match the client’s style, measurements, and the vision for their event.
For Tyra’s look, our design team created an original sketch that showcased the dramatic cape, sculpted gold corset, and the refined black silhouette that later became the final gown she wore at Fashion Trust Arabia.

This sketch was the foundation of her custom process, shaping every detail from the curve of the corset to the flow of the cape. It reflects the exact design created specifically for Tyra.

Couture Craftsmanship at Its Finest

The gown features a hand-molded gold bodice with a soft curve neckline, paired with a sleek black silhouette that flows into a long train.
The cape was designed to add presence, creating an architectural frame that elevates the entire look.
This combination of precision tailoring and bold design reflects what our couture house stands for artistry, individuality, and unforgettable moments.

Created for Icons

Designing this look for Tyra Banks was a proud moment for our team. The gown was crafted through a fully custom process, including:

• exact body measurements
• personalized design sketches
• custom corsetry shaping
• hand-finished detailing
• final fittings for precision
