Sultanate to mark Earth Hour, says Environmental Society of Oman
Shangri-La Barr Al Jissah Resort and Spa
Muscat - Arab Today
On Saturday, from 8:30pm till 9:30pm, Oman will observe Earth Hour, according to the Environmental Society of Oman (ESO).
As part of Earth Hour, ESO has organised a variety of programmes at Shangri-La Barr Al Jissah Resort and Spa between 6pm and 10pm.
“The lights will be off for 60 minutes from 8:30pm on March 25,” the ESO said.
This is the seventh year that ESO has celebrated the campaign.
Earth Hour occurs once a year, and people are encouraged to turn their lights off for 60 minutes in the evening.
The idea is to show your commitment to the future of our planet – and it started as a lights-off event in Sydney, Australia, in 2007.
Since then the event, led by the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF), has grown to include more than 7,000 towns and cities worldwide

Paris - Al Maghrib Today
Two months after legendary designer Azzedine Alaia's sudden death plunged the fashion world into mourning, an exhibition in homage to the "King of Cling" opened Monday in his studios in Paris.

The diminutive maverick, who ignored fashion week convention by showing when and where he wanted, in July produced his first couture collection in six years to rapturous reviews. Now some of his most iconic dresses are going on display in the glass-roofed gallery next to his studio and home in the Marais district where he used to show his creations. It includes the dress worn by supermodel Naomi Campbell, his longtime friend and muse, when she led hisGMT 09:22 2018 Monday ,22 January
