THE MIRAGE AWARDS & FASHION SHOW 2025 — WHERE DREAMS MET DESTINY
Dubai, October 25, 2025 | Park Regis Kris Kin
There are nights that shimmer — and then there are nights that shift the skyline of history.
Under chandeliers that burned like constellations, Hayat Events & Arts ignited Dubai with the 2nd Edition of The Mirage Awards & Fashion Show 2025 — an evening where dreams dared the spotlight, art breathed fire, and fashion wrote its own destiny.
This was not an event.
It was a revolution in velvet and vision.
A seamless fusion of power, purpose, and poise — where creativity became currency and the heartbeat of Dubai pulsed through every stride on the runway.
THE VISION — HAYAT EVENTS & ARTS: A MOVEMENT, NOT A MOMENT
Founded by Safa and Sarah Peshimam, Hayat Arts has shattered conventions, redefining what it means to merge art, fashion, and purpose.
In just 18 months, they’ve curated over 21 international exhibitions, fashion galas, and cultural landmarks — crafting not moments of applause, but legacies that echo long after the lights fade.
“We don’t just organize events; we build legacies that outlive us,” declared founder Safa Peshimam — the voice behind a movement that refuses to dim.

THE OPENING — THV COUTURE: WHEN DREAMS WEAR SILK
The night ignited with THV Couture’s 2025 Bridal Collection, a vision drenched in passion, poetry, and power.
Each gown was not worn — it lived.
Every silhouette carried the pulse of legacy and love.
Conceived by Tanzim Vasgare and inspired by her late father Hasan Vasgare, whose words still guide her — “Dream as big as you dare, and I will be the wind beneath your wings.”
From that promise rose a couture house built on heritage, emotion, and the art of becoming timeless.
DUBAI’S NIGHT OF LEGENDS
The ballroom glittered with brilliance — an assembly of minds, leaders, and legends who have each carved their own chapter of excellence.
Among the distinguished guests:
H.H. Yaqoob Al Ali, Sultana Kazim, Ahmed Al Awadhi Rukni, Hanif Shaikh, Bu Abdullah, H.E. Laila Rahal, Dr. Mariam Shaikh, Abdullah Al Jafaly, Sumayra, Nada Al Barazi, Muhammad Yusuf, Captain Houda Sghaier, Peter Gressman, Tessy Koshy, Reema Mahajan, Bouchra Izabel, Dr. Anum Ali, Mohammed Ali, Anjini Prakash Laitu, Max Fardan, Mehreen Sultana, Kiara Kaur, Juhi Yasmeen Khan, Sonaksi Goyal, Lord Lee of Atherfield, Raffah Abdulrazzaq, and Mr. & Mrs. Boeing.
Each name, a constellation in the galaxy of Mirage — together, they illuminated the night with grace, intellect, and grandeur.
THE PANEL TALK — PURPOSE IN MOTION
Before the lights returned to the runway, the stage turned to thought.
Moderated by Rayan Shahid, the discussion “Art, Fashion & Sustainability: Building a Conscious Future” united the voices of Tessy Koshy, Nada Al Barazi, and Peter Gressman.
Their message was sharp, that luxury without awareness is hollow, and that the true couture of the future is consciousness itself.
THE MIRAGE AWARDS — WHERE VISIONARIES ARE CROWNED
And then came the moment when ambition took the stage.
The Mirage Awards 2025 lit up the room with thunderous applause, honoring trailblazers who turned creativity into legacy.
Among the awardees: Ahmed Al Awadhi Rukni, Dr. Mariam Shaikh, Hanif Shaikh, Muhammad Yusuf, Jaimee Reyes, Dr. Anum Ali, Kaitlyn Isabella, Sahar Shabnoor Ansari, Yashi Khatanhar, Fernanda Rampon, Edcel Cabalan, Kamal Al Yammahi, Erum Durrani, Rooma Eejaz, Rolando De Guzman Rico Jr., Qaafilah Studio, Sahil Akbar, and Rosvic Castro.
Every name called was not applause, it was validation.
Every award was not a trophy, it was testament.
WHEN SILENCE BLEEDS — THE POETRY OF COURAGE
In a moment of quiet power, Safa Peshimam unveiled her second poetry collection, “When Silence Bleeds.”
Her words — fierce, raw, and resonant — hung in the air like truth itself.
“It was written in the kind of silence that presses against your chest and demands to be heard,” she said.
For a heartbeat, the ballroom went still. Art had spoken louder than sound.
THE RUNWAY — WHERE EVERY SOUL BECAME A STORY
And then came the roar of applause as the runway transformed into a living dream.
Not walked by professionals, but by believers, artists, friends, visionaries, trained, styled, and empowered under Safa Peshimam’s artistic direction.
Each movement, a heartbeat made visible.
Models who owned the night:
Aisha Shaikh, Althaf Ashraf, Avigyan Bhattacharya, Ehsan Rasheed, Fady Farahat, Jaimee Reyes, Khaleeq Qazi, Marcus Andries, Muhammad Rasheed, Nandana Suresh, Nazmin Rasheed, Nidhi Sreenivas, Rachel Aroujo, Raghib Khan, Rayan Shahid, Yashi Khatanhar, and the founders themselves — Safa & Sarah Peshimam.
They did not walk for fame — they walked for belief.
And belief never looked more beautiful.
THE COLLABORATORS — BEHIND THE BRILLIANCE
Greatness never stands alone.
Behind every light, every lens, every flawless moment — stood a team that built Mirage into magic.
Official partners included:

Together, they turned a vision into visual poetry.
THE GRAND FINALE — A LEGACY IN MOTION
As the music dimmed and applause thundered through the ballroom, one truth burned bright:
Mirage was not a show. It was history in heels and heartbeats.
In the words of Safa Peshimam, closing the night with quiet power:
“We don’t just honor brilliance; we shape histories that continue to shine long after the lights fade.”
The chandeliers swayed, the laughter lingered, and destiny — dressed in silk and sequins — took its final bow.
Dubai did not witness a night. Dubai witnessed a legacy.
