With the Holy Month of Ramadan underway, a period of self-reflection, fasting and prayer begins for many. I live in Dubai, and, in a country such as the United Arab Emirates, the month-long journey not only encourages believers, but people of all faiths to practise patience, humility, forgiveness and compassion.

Each day of fasting ends with a feast, or iftar, celebrated among family and friends. Before we all know it, Ramadan will come to an end, Eid will be celebrated and many will begin heading out on their summer vacations.

As a luxury content creator, I have a passion for clothes and, when MR PORTER asked me to choose seven items I would want to receive after Ramadan, I was all too happy to oblige. From potential gift ideas to outfit inspirations, this curated list will have you covered on all fronts when Eid arrives.

The front pleats and buckled waist tabs make these shorts the perfect summer companion. Allowing for a comfortable fit, you can throw on anything from a loose T-shirt to a pastel-coloured linen shirt and live your best version of La Dolce Vita.

A woven belt is a wardrobe staple. Even with recent trends annexing the belt, you will need one when rocking a pair of jeans or if you decide to tuck in that shirt that sits just a little too long. Not only will this suede belt look good on you, it is also the perfect gift come the end of Ramadan. Just make sure it goes to someone worthy.

With temperatures reaching 55°C on some days, you do not want to be stuck in a business meeting fermenting in a wool suit. Invest in a light, unstructured linen suit for those important events that require a preppy you.

When you go with denim, you need to be certain you are doing it right. A little too long or baggy and you will stick out for all the wrong reasons. These Brunello Cucinelli jeans have all the characteristics of a perfect pair of jeans. Throw them on with some suede tan loafers and a cotton-piqué polo and you are set.

Speaking of polo shirts, a cyclical trend has seen many rock this classic item by popping the collar over their suit jacket, giving off that nostalgic 1970s vibe. And there is nothing wrong with that. The polo is a must-have if you have to battle through constant humidity and an endless summer. Style yours with a pair of navy chinos and white sneakers for your next “Casual Thursday” – yes, our weekend in Dubai is Friday and Saturday.

The perfect suede loafers may just be this pair by Edward Green. Handmade using ridiculously soft leather, they deserve the same attention you would give your IWC Schaffhausen watch. They are light and technically already broken-in, so you cannot go wrong if you pair them with short-cut jeans and a linen polo.

Come Eid, many UAE residents plan a week-long vacation and it is often somewhere in Europe. Early June can feel a little chilly once the sun goes down, so why not invest in this impeccable suede bomber jacket by Valstar. Not only will this jacket make you look years younger, it will keep you comfortably warm while you head up the coast of Italy.

Ramadan Kareem!
