Building on the legacy of Saudi Arabia’s Manal AlDowayan and Egypt’s Ghada Amer, Rashed becomes the latest Arab artist to collaborate with the brand.
Rashed, a visual artist who explores themes of identity and the natural environment, often reimagines the female form and identity through vibrant compositions, a vision she channeled into reinterpreting Dior’s most recognizable handbag.
For her first design, she was inspired by a washed-up seashell she had found on the shore of Failaka Island, off the coast of Kuwait. Her second design was inspired by the humaith flower, found in Kuwait during spring.
