Summer in the UAE changes the tempo. Plans move indoors, calendars begin to breathe and attention shifts towards the parts of daily life that are usually rushed through. It becomes a natural point of recalibration, whether that means returning to movement, refining what you wear, reconsidering your surroundings or finding jewellery that earns a permanent place in your rotation. Across the region, these brands are approaching the reset with strong ideas, local perspective and a sense of how people want to live today.
Reset the Body
Curve Club
Following the reception of its Abu Dhabi studio, The Curve Club has arrived in Dubai for a summer residency at DAS Space in Dar Al Wasl Mall. Running until 31 July, the women-led concept offers Reformer Pilates alongside selected experiences from The Curve House and pieces from DAS Collection. More than a temporary workout address, the residency introduces Dubai to the community-minded approach that has shaped the brand from the start.
Reset the Wardrobe
All by Kai
The most useful summer clothes are often the ones that refuse to stay in a single category. Founded in Abu Dhabi by creative director Nujoud AlEisaei, All by Kai builds its collections around that idea, creating streamlined pieces that move from a morning class to the rest of the day. Clean silhouettes, practical fabrics and an unfussy point of view make the label a strong case for dressing with fewer complications.
Reset the Home
Contemporary Spaces
A seasonal reset can begin with the rooms you return to every day. Founded by Emirati siblings Alya, Maitha and Obaid Al Suwaidi, Contemporary Spaces creates locally made furniture informed by regional heritage and contemporary living. Sculptural shapes, tactile materials and considered proportions give each piece a distinct presence without overwhelming its surroundings.
Reset the Jewellery Box
YAZ & Co
At YAZ & Co, diamonds belong in the everyday wardrobe. The Emirati label works with lab-grown stones across pieces that range from barely there to bold and stackable, each made to be worn often and gather meaning along the way.
Majesta Fine Jewellery
Africa’s landscapes and wildlife provide the starting point for Majesta Fine Jewellery. Working in 18k gold, natural diamonds and selected gemstones, the brand translates organic forms into enduring pieces.
Endear by S
The heart sits at the centre of Endear by S, both as a recurring symbol and a wider language of connection. The Omani fine jewellery brand works with 18k gold, natural diamonds and precious gemstones to create pieces with emotional resonance. Personal without becoming overly sentimental, the designs are made to mark relationships, milestones and private meanings.
SWE ME
SWE ME approaches jewellery as a record of what might otherwise be forgotten. Memories, emotions and passing encounters are translated into sculptural forms shaped by movement and light. Designed in Dubai, the pieces carry the intimacy of keepsakes while retaining the strength to stand alone as objects of design.
Baguette Design
For Emirati designer Fatma Al Bannai, jewellery is another form of storytelling. Through Baguette Design, she draws on contemporary femininity and cultural memory to create pieces that feel personal without relying on obvious symbolism. Each design is intended to enter the wearer’s own story, gathering new associations with time.
House of Samra
Dubai’s Flame Tree season becomes an annual ritual through House of Samra’s The First Bloom. Released as a collectible in 18k gold and diamonds, the piece captures a brief natural event that returns to the city each year. It is a poetic way of marking time, grounded in a visual language closely tied to Dubai.
Renu Oberoi
At Renu Oberoi, the gemstone sets the tone. Colour, cut and character shape each design, from bold cocktail rings to evening pieces with real presence. Fine craftsmanship keeps them grounded, while the scale and colour make sure they are remembered.
