This season they have masterfully combined the spectacle of a runway show with a contemporary art installation to celebrate freedom of expression, alongside Middle Eastern craft.
Presented in collaboration with Palestinian multi-media artists, Basel & Luanne, Qasimi have reimagined traditional garments, techniques and patterns of the Middle East and North Africa in a new and ambitious context.
Club wear inspired colours dominated the runway; lime green, grape purple and vibrant red starkly juxtaposed with neutral monochromatic hues made a bold and energetic statement.
The traditional ‘black tie’ look appears throughout the collection in surprising ways, set in deliberate contrast to the colour and verve of 1990s British rave culture.
