DUBAI: Global athletic label New Balance has signed American-Kuwaiti fashion influencer Ascia Al-Faraj as the brand’s newest regional ambassador. Al-Faraj is the first female representative from the region to sign for the brand, according to a released statement, and would debut as the face of the New Balance NB collective campaign titled “Energise a Generation” that is set to launch on Thursday across the Middle East. Caption The collection is made up of two signature styles with contrasting colors. The hero shoes, which the entrepreneur championed for the campaign, feature a bold, vibrant mix of pink, purple, teal and yellow – aptly matching her colorful persona.
