“I don’t know if it’s a fantasy orchestrated by my imagination or an echo of an old childhood memory, but it always comes back to me as strong, as real, as vivid and very nostalgic.” Rami Al Ali recounts. “An evening in Damascus, for me, is a fresh breeze wafting with the sweet aroma of jasmine. Soothing whispers behind the rosewood moucharabiehs, mixed with the gurgling of the courtyard fountain and the shadows created by the full moon, like a serene sanctuary – deeply inspiring and so peaceful.”
The collection features a refined palette of warm beige, champagne, and powdery tones interspersed with lunar blacks. Rami Al Ali tactfully manipulates the silhouettes by skillfully casting shadows on the body through solid opaque fabrics – cut to highlight the architectural lines. Glittering sequins, crystal beads and liquid satin fabrics bring the collection to life, reflecting light with every movement.
Rami Al Ali Haute Couture Spring/Summer 2021 Fashion Show
The collection features voluminous formal gowns, elegant maxi dresses and surprisingly couture jumpsuits. Other pieces play with exaggerated architectural shapes, such as ruffles, hoods and abstract bows. Classic haute couture fabrics, such as satin and silk, have been carefully selected while the extravagant volumes and dimensions remain ever characteristic of Rami Al Ali’s recent collections.
