Silk Thread Martyrs was conceptually inspired by the history and contemporary realities of the designer's homeland, Palestine. The collection features 22 individual garments, each unique in construction and design and made with the minimum use of machinery: embroidery, fabric, colouring and dyeing is carried out by hand, using natural materials such as indigo and tea.
