Dubai’s own Buffi Jashanmal shot to global fame for her appearance on Emmy-winning reality fashion show Project Runway as a contestant where she weathered a tough time from celebrity judges such as supermodel Heidi Klum and designer Michael Kors but gained fans everywhere for her unique and idiosyncratic style.
