The Palestinian designer, Ihab Jiryis, presented for the first time his couture collection on the official calendar of the Arab Fashion Week. The collection is inspired by the extreme amount of difficulty and commitment when a job requires both reality and imagination. It requires to combine the two complete opposites to create something new and self-manufactured. A job that includes this requirement is Fashion Designing. When reality is based on what you can see and touch, and imagination is something from the mind and its creativity, something spectacular can be made.

Everyone desires that imagination becomes reality, and in some ways, parts of it really do. With the world alternating persistently, we all try to escape the reality we find ourselves in and find ourselves in the world of imagination. However, this pushes us into a state where we find ourselves slowly disconnecting from reality and allowing imagination to be what you believe in.

In his couture collection, Ihab manifested his ideology visually by drawing sketches and designs that will collate these two worlds, these two worlds can’t exist without the other, but they complete each other, and they cannot be identical.

The collection features harmonically contradicting elements such as the exposed and the covered, colors that are completely different, fabrics that is plain and others that are embroidered. Ihab has used various kinds of fabrics, silk chiffon. designs that are loose to cover body shape and others that is tight to boost body figure. “I sincerely believe in the power of the dress and the styles that express ideas and emotion that mirror reflect what we have in our hearts and brains.” Said Ihab Jiryis.
