Pretty Little Things: Dolls & Textiles Edition at AlSadu House



We are in AlSadu House - the home of textiles - for our third installment and for that reason we have created a way to include an element of our beautiful venue in the theme of the show. We've called it the "Dolls & Textiles Edition" because we have commissioned a group of regional designers to dress fabric dolls in their signature creations. These fabulous creations will be sold to benefit our cause: building a second Pretty Little Things house in the orphanage. Come see our progress on the first house, celebrate our successes, and contribute to our next one. We will of course have our outdoor seating area, serve pots of complimentary tea, and have delicious burgers, grilled pizzas, crepe and frozen yogurt from Munch and Milk.
