Ahlam faces criticism with a frank message: Simplicity is the secret of beauty

In a tweet on her official account on the X platform, Emirati artist Ahlam explained the reason for repeatedly wearing the same dresses, stressing that she buys them with her own money and does not borrow them from fashion houses.

Ahlam: I return my dresses because I buy them with my own money Ahlam wrote: “I return my dresses because I buy them with my own money, not as a gift or to wear them once and then return them to the boutique. Really, a message to everyone: Don’t pressure your families with expenses. Even my sons and daughters are used to this. I show them: Look, I wore this dress and wore it again, and I love my things very much. I love you.”

With these words, Ahlam sent a message urging personal appreciation for things, away from ostentation, stressing that she prefers simplicity and loves to preserve her possessions.

Call for young men and women to avoid extravagance In another tweet, Ahlam criticized the culture of extravagance prevalent among some, especially among young men and women who refuse to repeat clothes or accessories, saying: “Yes, I see girls cutting off their families, and the dress is not repeated, and the bag is not repeated, and the abayas are not repeated. Why?! Praise be to God, we are in good health and blessings, but blessings are fleeting, and a person should thank God and be grateful to Him and preserve this blessing.”

Ahlam's message came to highlight the importance of being grateful for blessings instead of extravagance, pointing out the need to change the culture of consumption and reduce the financial pressure on families.

Wide audience interaction Ahlam's tweets received a lot of interaction on social media platforms, as many of her followers expressed their admiration for her modesty and realistic advice. Some considered that Ahlam presented a role model in how to deal with fashion away from exaggerations.

Ahlam's message is not just a commentary on criticism, but an open invitation to rethink the pattern of excessive consumption and appreciate the blessings that may not last if they are not respected.
