"Authorities have decided to ban the organisation of fashion shows in the kingdom unless they meet all conditions and are approved by the competent authorities," the Arabic language newspaper said without giving reason for the move.

It said the decision has been sent to chambers of commerce and industry in the largest Arab economy, asking them to convey it to all fashion organisers.
