As part of Saudi Arabia's 90th National Day festivities this week, Saudi fashion designer Omaima Kindassa plans to stage a show that will be inspired by tribal traditional costumes worn in different parts of the Kingdom.

The event will kick off here Saturday evening and run for a week, online newspaper Sabq reported.

It also aims at familiarizing the public, mainly the youth; with national costumes to help promote and increase an attachment to the homeland.

The show will also feature outfits from the regions of Najd, Madinah and Al-Qassim.
