When speaking of “Fashionistas”, her name cannot be skipped. This lady not only has a unique sense of fashion, but also a daring personality that goes with it. Since almost all of her appearances are distinctive, I chose to show you ten of her most bizarre and eccentric looks that created much buzz around her.
Grey Hair
No matter what the trend might be, Maya insists on creating her own trend. Even with grey hair that will make any other woman look old, Maya looks ageless, radiant and beautiful.
Sneak A Peek
You think that showing your undergarment would make you look tacky…well, normally it does, but in this particular case, Maya’s slit shows her sexy stockings in an unexpectedly chic way!
Mirrors
The sparkle of her dress did not steal any of her glam. In a Nicolas Jebran, dress Maya is glowing even brighter than Fergie.
Strange Veil
This woman knows how to create a buzz around her. Wearing a veil (that reminded me of Grace Jones) with a revealing top created much controversy of course. Even with her hair covered almost entirely, she remains attractive and captivating.
Bizarre Sunglasses
Well, some of her sunglasses are!
Others remind me of Sir Elton John’s. In all cases, Maya surely is a daring woman who’s not afraid of criticism!
Horns
…on a dress of course!
Although I found the dress to be much revealing, I cannot deny the fact that it is sexy. Having said that, I surely am not encouraging wearing a similar dress not only because I am strongly opinionated regarding showing too much cleavage, but also because I think that not so many women can pull off this look! Luckily for Maya, she did.
Shaved Head
In her music video, Maya had the guts to appear in a shaved head. In a time where artists do almost anything to look their best, I am compelled to give Maya credit for the courage she had to appear in such a look.
See-Through Dress
Well, that dress created a storm of arguments indeed!
Personally, I hated it. Even with its long sleeves and length, it is far away from being classy because of the much revealing see-through fabric. But I guess it did its function by generating the intended controversy.
Daring Hairdos
This woman has guts alright! Few artists in the Arab world have similar courage. Having said that, I have to salute Maya for her unconventional looks that stretch beyond the line drawn by her fellow performers.
Off-Beat Shoes
Needless to say that these pair of shoes cannot pass by unseen. More like the Lady Gaga’s style, I wonder how someone can even walk in these. I bet that most of you would not want to be in Maya’s shoes this time…but only this time.
Diversity is always good. Having some daring performing artists in the Arab world is nice for a change, just bear in mind that being distinguished requires a smart individual with a fine fashion sense. Maya Diab proved to be as smart as she is gorgeous. Just be careful if you are considering adopting her style not to cross the fine line between daring and awkward![Clara Abou Antoun/fashionguide]
