Dubai Fashion and Interior Design subject guide: News and other media

News resources

For Fashion news, do look at the resources shown on the Fashion: Markets and Companies page. Those shown here relate to more general news and newspapers. You will also find details of some specific media sources. 

Newspaper databases

Journals and Magazines

Most of the content of these journals can also be discovered when using Library Search, or other journal article databases. However if you are interested in the specific content of any of these titles you may find it easier to search within them directly. 

Why use newspapers?

Newspapers are often discounted as sources of information as they are not 'academic'. However they can be very useful as they provide:

  • Information about local events
  • First-hand accounts of events
  • Current information

Reading quality newspapers is a great way to develop your commercial awareness. In assignments you will often be writing about business models and theories and information from newspapers can illustrate how these models and frameworks are put into practice.
