Arab Beauty, Fashion and Infographics. Long List Information Is Beautiful Award 2023.
Stereotypes happen for a reason. A quick look at data from Statista confirms how Western media often label Arab women as shallow with outrageous taste in beauty standards. But there are cultural reasons behind these stereotypes. Female beauty and fashion routines have been part of the Arab culture for centuries and have come with expectations of women’s looks. This collection of scarves, sarongs, and t-shirts and their tags display quantitative and qualitative data from Statista on the beauty market in Western Asia. They also act as a testimony of the power and role of the Arab woman in her region and on a global level.
