Two Moroccan designers showcased their latest collections during Milan Fashion Week, with one of them putting on an exclusive show highlighting the traditional Moroccan caftan. Fatima-Zahra Al-Filali Al-Idrisi presented her “Fatim” collection at the historic Palazzo Barossi, featuring 15 exquisite caftans with modern touches and fancy bridal jewelry, including tiaras and other headpieces.
Her collection embodied the essence of traditional Moroccan caftans infused with modern designs.
Zineb Hazim, another Moroccan-born designer, also made a mark during the fashion week. She presented her line of modest clothing, including abayas and pantsuits, which feature odd fabric combinations like denim, tweed, and embellishments.
Her latest collection drew inspiration from the Amazigh culture, incorporating embezzled straps commonly used to dress up brides from the Zayan tribes and dancers.
Representing Morocco on the runway, Dutch model Imaan Hammam walked for several high-end brands, including Etro, Moschino, Maxmara, and Tods. She sported different styles and outfits, such as a punk spikey hairstyle and a leather two-piece outfit with staple diamond pieces for Moschino, a long flowy green dress paired with black shoes, black gloves, and a simple bun for Max Mara, and a dress with a big scarf alongside knee-high boots for Etro. Her presence highlighted the Moroccan influence in Milan’s fashion scene.
