Maverick. Empathetic. Imaginative. Independent. These are the qualities half-Emirati, half-Mexican digital creative Ashley Al Busmait embraces in herself. And as she arrives on set for our Villa 88 cover shoot accompanied by her mother, we\u2019d add that while living her best fashion life, family will always come first. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Born to a Mexican mother and Emirati father, Ashley embraced the cultural fabric of her duality from a very young age. Inspired by her rich heritage, she began to interweave artistic elements of her culture into her personal style. As the years passed, she became increasingly enamored with the way clothing could hold so much power in representing one\u2019s identity. In 2016, Ashley launched The Mirage Edit on Instagram, aimed at documenting her personal journey of self-discovery from an artistic lens. The platform focuses on curating impactful fashion editorials that go far beyond pristine aesthetics and tell deeper meaningful stories. Her visual canvas is a symphony of her muses, her beloved background, her avant-garde spin on modest fashion, and her chameleon-like interpretation of style. She aspires to give life to thought-provoking fashion editorials with an underlying message of celebrating one\u2019s intrinsic individuality. <br><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/preproductiondemo.com\/villa88\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/VILLA88_04_2941-811x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24911\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.net-a-porter.com\/en-ae\/shop\/product\/altuzarra\/clothing\/blazers\/lilium-belted-wool-blend-twill-blazer\/560971903814754\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ALTUZARRA<\/a><\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.net-a-porter.com\/en-ae\/shop\/product\/altuzarra\/clothing\/blazers\/lilium-belted-wool-blend-twill-blazer\/560971903814754\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> Lilium belted wool-blend twill blazer<\/a>, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.net-a-porter.com\/en-ae\/shop\/product\/saint-laurent\/clothing\/blouses\/pussy-bow-ruffled-silk-crepe-de-chine-blouse\/22527730566253840\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">SAINT LAURENT <\/a><\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.net-a-porter.com\/en-ae\/shop\/product\/saint-laurent\/clothing\/blouses\/pussy-bow-ruffled-silk-crepe-de-chine-blouse\/22527730566253840\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Pussy-bow ruffled silk crepe de chine blouse<\/a>, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.net-a-porter.com\/en-ae\/shop\/product\/bottega-veneta\/clothing\/wide-leg\/silk-satin-pants\/16494023980882463\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">BOTTEGA VENETA <\/a><\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.net-a-porter.com\/en-ae\/shop\/product\/bottega-veneta\/clothing\/wide-leg\/silk-satin-pants\/16494023980882463\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Silk-satin pants<\/a>, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.net-a-porter.com\/en-us\/shop\/designer\/by-far\/shoes\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">BY FAR <\/a><\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.net-a-porter.com\/en-us\/shop\/designer\/by-far\/shoes\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Gigi 100mm cut-out sandals<\/a>, all at <strong>NET-A-PORTER<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;I feel that my generation, the millennials, is less unapologetic and more forthright in choosing the direction they want to lead their lives. With all respect, I believe that past generations, specifically here in the Gulf, were guided by the expectations set by society\u2019s norms. This, I think, influenced their decisions when it came to a career path, a timeline for marriage and having children and the way they chose to present themselves in society. I find that there is a massive transition taking place with the mindset of the younger generation. They are placing an emphasis on self-discovery. I see that my peers are focused on seeking peace, alignment, independence, and happiness as opposed to being concerned with complying with societal norms. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I feel as though this current generation is working hard to redefine their identity. In contrast to previous generations, they are navigating a balance between a respect for what past generations stood for and the ever-changing influence of globalization. As we venture into the modern world, we are inevitably challenged with decisions on balancing our traditions with newly developed ideologies. <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/preproductiondemo.com\/villa88\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/sdsdgucci-orange-1-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24931\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.net-a-porter.com\/en-ae\/shop\/product\/gucci\/accessories\/round-frame\/oversized-round-frame-embellished-acetate-and-gold-tone-sunglasses\/6630340696595455\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">GUCCI <\/a><\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.net-a-porter.com\/en-ae\/shop\/product\/gucci\/accessories\/round-frame\/oversized-round-frame-embellished-acetate-and-gold-tone-sunglasses\/6630340696595455\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Oversized round-frame embellished acetate and gold-tone sunglasses<\/a>, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.net-a-porter.com\/en-us\/shop\/product\/gucci\/clothing\/blazers\/plus-ken-scott-jenni-appliqued-floral-print-velvet-blazer\/22527730566220180\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">GUCCI <\/a><\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.net-a-porter.com\/en-us\/shop\/product\/gucci\/clothing\/blazers\/plus-ken-scott-jenni-appliqued-floral-print-velvet-blazer\/22527730566220180\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">+ <\/a><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.net-a-porter.com\/en-us\/shop\/product\/gucci\/clothing\/blazers\/plus-ken-scott-jenni-appliqued-floral-print-velvet-blazer\/22527730566220180\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">KEN SCOTT<\/a><\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.net-a-porter.com\/en-us\/shop\/product\/gucci\/clothing\/blazers\/plus-ken-scott-jenni-appliqued-floral-print-velvet-blazer\/22527730566220180\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> Jenni appliqu\u00e9d floral-print velvet blazer<\/a>, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.net-a-porter.com\/en-ae\/shop\/product\/saint-laurent\/clothing\/blouses\/silk-satin-turtleneck-blouse\/2204324140403687\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">SAINT LAURENT <\/a><\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.net-a-porter.com\/en-ae\/shop\/product\/saint-laurent\/clothing\/blouses\/silk-satin-turtleneck-blouse\/2204324140403687\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Silk-satin turtleneck blouse<\/a>, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.net-a-porter.com\/en-ae\/shop\/product\/max-mara\/clothing\/wide-leg\/kirsch-pleated-wool-twill-wide-leg-pants\/22527730566155043\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">MAX MARA <\/a><\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.net-a-porter.com\/en-ae\/shop\/product\/max-mara\/clothing\/wide-leg\/kirsch-pleated-wool-twill-wide-leg-pants\/22527730566155043\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Kirsch pleated wool-twill wide-leg pants<\/a>, all at <strong>NET-A-PORTER <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I am a firm believer that it is important to harness the beauty that comes with tradition but equally and more importantly, to challenge ourselves to maintain an open mindset and not be afraid to create and live by values that may differ from what is considered the norm. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I definitely consider myself an old soul.

It is a great honor to be able to use my fashion platform The Mirage Edit on Instagram to represent my roots and give women in the West an insight into Emirati heritage. I also connect with my Mexican side through music. I enjoy listening to genres of Mexican music. For example cumbias, which are upbeat and vivacious (they get me on my feet and dancing every single time) and rancheras which pay tribute to the simplicity and beauty of the Mexican culture. My favorite singer is Chavela Vargas. She was a Costa Rican singer who dominated the music scene in Mexico in the \u201950s. Her raspy voice always transports me to Mexico and makes me feel closer to my roots. I love how she was such a unique character and wasn\u2019t afraid to go against the grain, often donning menswear and breaking into a genre of music that was reserved for men at the time. She gives me the strength to be my own person despite society\u2019s concerns about change.   <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/preproductiondemo.com\/villa88\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/VILLA88_05_1261-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24916\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.net-a-porter.com\/en-ae\/shop\/product\/max-mara\/clothing\/blazers\/lamine-double-breasted-camel-hair-and-silk-blend-twill-blazer\/22527730566146787\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">MAX MARA <\/a><\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.net-a-porter.com\/en-ae\/shop\/product\/max-mara\/clothing\/blazers\/lamine-double-breasted-camel-hair-and-silk-blend-twill-blazer\/22527730566146787\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Lamine double-breasted camel hair and silk-blend twill blazer <\/a>and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.net-a-porter.com\/en-ch\/shop\/product\/max-mara\/josef-pleated-camel-hair-and-silk-blend-twill-wide-leg-pants\/1295964\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Josef pleated camel hair and silk-blend twill wide-leg pants<\/a>, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.net-a-porter.com\/en-us\/shop\/product\/saint-laurent\/clothing\/shirts\/cotton-poplin-shirt\/8008779905612742\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">SAINT LAURENT <\/a><\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.net-a-porter.com\/en-us\/shop\/product\/saint-laurent\/clothing\/shirts\/cotton-poplin-shirt\/8008779905612742\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Cotton-poplin shirt<\/a>, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.net-a-porter.com\/en-ae\/shop\/product\/16arlington\/bags\/mini-bags\/ralphie-mini-leather-tote\/8008779905312685\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">16ARLINGTON <\/a><\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.net-a-porter.com\/en-ae\/shop\/product\/16arlington\/bags\/mini-bags\/ralphie-mini-leather-tote\/8008779905312685\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ralphie mini leather tote<\/a>, all at<strong> NET-A-PORTER<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I\u2019ve been heavily influenced by the independent and empowered women in my life \u2013 both from my Emirati and Mexican sides. Their way of modest dress and impeccable elegance has greatly influenced me. I discovered early on that dressing modestly evokes a certain sense of respect. Most people would assume that the modest theme is derived from the Arab world, but it exists in various cultures and civilizations, and it is being adopted widely in today\u2019s world. For it is not merely a way of dress or an extension of faith, but sends a message not only of beauty, but also of power and control. I hope that through my work, I can empower women to celebrate their choices, challenge negative stereotypes, and take on the world one outfit at a time.  <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/preproductiondemo.com\/villa88\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/VILLA88_08_035_21-756x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24917\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.net-a-porter.com\/en-ae\/shop\/product\/alexander-mcqueen\/clothing\/long\/asymmetric-cotton-gabardine-trench-coat\/2204324140487409\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ALEXANDER MCQUEEN <\/a><\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.net-a-porter.com\/en-ae\/shop\/product\/alexander-mcqueen\/clothing\/long\/asymmetric-cotton-gabardine-trench-coat\/2204324140487409\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Asymmetric cotton-gabardine trench coat<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.net-a-porter.com\/en-ae\/shop\/product\/alexander-mcqueen\/clothing\/tapered\/buckled-cotton-twill-tapered-pants\/2204324140482672\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Buckled cotton-twill tapered pants<\/a>, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.net-a-porter.com\/en-ae\/shop\/product\/dodo-bar-or\/lingerie\/bodysuits\/gabi-open-back-ribbed-knit-bodysuit\/11452292646301738\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">DODO BAR OR <\/a><\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.net-a-porter.com\/en-ae\/shop\/product\/dodo-bar-or\/lingerie\/bodysuits\/gabi-open-back-ribbed-knit-bodysuit\/11452292646301738\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Gabi open-back ribbed-knit bodysuit<\/a>, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.net-a-porter.com\/en-ae\/shop\/designer\/giuseppe-zanotti\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">GIUSEPPE ZANOTTI <\/a><\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.net-a-porter.com\/en-ae\/shop\/designer\/giuseppe-zanotti\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Metallic stretch-leather sock boots<\/a>, all at <strong>NET-A-PORTER<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I believe that the biggest misconception about Emirati women is that they are oppressed. Like many women from past generations around the world, Emirati women were homemakers and contributed to society through their skill in producing artisanal crafts. Through the years, there has been extensive support and encouragement in education for Emirati women. This has catapulted them to reach the height of the career path they choose to pursue and thus, contribute greatly to society.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I want the world to know that Emirati women are a force to be reckoned with, in the best sense of this phrase. They are empowered, independent, innovative, entrepreneurial, and carry themselves with elegance and grace. Throughout the course of my life, my parents have instilled in me an appreciation for both my cultures as well as the cultures of others. When I paint the mural of my heritage, I see two worlds unified \u2014 I am overcome with a sense of gratitude to have been nurtured to see the world through a clear glass window, untainted, with arms wide open. My Emirati father and my Mexican mother bestowed the gift of cultural understanding and to see that goodness has no sides. <\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/preproductiondemo.com\/villa88\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/VILLA88_10_041_21-756x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-24918\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.net-a-porter.com\/en-ae\/shop\/product\/alexander-mcqueen\/clothing\/midi-dresses\/asymmetric-ruffled-cotton-and-silk-blend-crepon-dress\/2204324140487378\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ALEXANDER MCQUEEN<\/a><\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.net-a-porter.com\/en-ae\/shop\/product\/alexander-mcqueen\/clothing\/midi-dresses\/asymmetric-ruffled-cotton-and-silk-blend-crepon-dress\/2204324140487378\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> Asymmetric ruffled cotton and silk-blend crepon dress<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.net-a-porter.com\/en-gb\/shop\/product\/alexander-mcqueen\/leather-waist-belt\/1265227\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Leather waist belt<\/a>, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.net-a-porter.com\/en-us\/shop\/designer\/giuseppe-zanotti\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">GIUSEPPE ZANOTTI<\/a><\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.net-a-porter.com\/en-us\/shop\/designer\/giuseppe-zanotti\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> Musa suede sandals<\/a>, all at <strong>NET-A-PORTER <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I ultimately find that the key to navigating cultures is not about adopting every aspect but more about respecting differences and maintaining an open mind.
