One model wears a black vegan leather tank top with a pair of shorts by an idyllic-looking pool. In another, a group of models exits the pool in skirts and crop tops, while others walk together through the desert.

The mesmerising silhouettes are set against the backdrop of The Next Era, a gallery of paintings signed Mariella Bettineschi and composed of large female portraits borrowed from the history of painting from the 16th to the 19th century.

The Palestinian Fashion Collectives was another presentation for Hamza Qassim in 2021: The production of the clothing itself embodies the anguish of border separation. “In many cases, we have not even been able to meet many of the producers we work with in person,” Mjalli explains. And yet, the collective works alongside “an intimate creative network of Palestinians—from fabric vendors in Nablus, to embroiderers in Gaza, to tailors in Ramallah.” Meera Albaba, founder of the Meera Adnan label, makes intimate contemporary wear encompassing the geography and art of Palestine. She consistently seeks to amplify the voices of marginalized Palestinian people, and her garments seek to reclaim the Palestinian narrative. The silhouettes are romantic yet modern; her structured blazers and modest, straight-cut maxi-dresses, are made in a color palette reminiscent of the Palestinian landscape.
