Iconic Blog

 “Just like every kid, I had dreams,
but I guess my dreams were more like goals.
Goals I dreamed of scoring
to make my family proud,
to make my country cheer
and to make myself the best player I could be.

I am iconic because I am proud to represent my nation doing the thing I do best.
I am iconic because when I look in the mirror,
I see a man dressed to win and styled for victory.
I am iconic because while everyone else is watching a game,
I’m watching my dream come true.

I am fashion. I am ICONIC.”

-          Abdul Aziz Al Dossary.

Abdul Aziz Al Dossary, the son of the soil, is one of the premier sportsmen of KSA. Still in his early 20s, this young lad has already made a name for himself. Fuelled by passion and rigorous determination, he made his dreams his goals and then chased them like the only thing that mattered. He dreamt not just for himself, but also for his team, his family, his country. And every step of the way, he knew that he was no longer pursuing his dream but the dream of thousands others. It is this aggressive spirit and charismatic demeanour that makes him Iconic.

Which brings us to the question, what is it that truly makes one Iconic?

Not the latest fall collection. Not the latest runway trend. Not the colour of the season. It is you and every little thing that makes you, you.

If your dreams don’t scare you, they are not big enough. Dare to dream. Work towards fulfilling them. And always, believe. It might not be easy. It might not even seem possible. But true icons never give up. You work and you struggle and you hope.

Abdul Aziz al Dossary’s goal was to score one goal after another. And that’s just what he did. It wasn’t easy, it wasn’t simple but he strived hard to fulfill his ambition.

That’s what makes one Iconic;
The courage to dream,
The strength to believe,
And the conviction to succeed!
