Damasse

This designer came to prominence last Ramadan with her capsule collection which captivated the fashion world with shimmery silhouettes, combining ornate woven lame and rich damasse fabrics.

It nods to Middle Eastern design elements while keeping the French-inspired DNA of the luxury fashion house intact with the use of rich lame and damasse textures, and feminine embellishments.
