At Noon by Noor, designed by Shaikha Noor Al Khalifa and Shaikha Haya Al Khalifa, the first look — a black-and-white floral varsity jacket — stated the theme clearly: sporty meets dressy. Highlights included a black drop-waist maxidress and an embellished navy apron dress, while cool floral-print shorts, a midi dress and a T-shirt jumpsuit gave the collection its springy vibe.

On a more evening-oriented note, the gowns felt a bit dated and not in sync with the effortless attitude of the daywear. Case in point: a copper foil print strapless gown and a black embellished drop-waist version.
