Shedding Layer: The Despair Dress

$250.00

MADE IN LEBANON

This dress is made from twenty-one layers of grey poplin, sewn tightly together at the midsection with heavy, constricted stitching. Hand-dyed in black, the center of the garment aches with the held-in pain of emotional baggage.

This look is part of Iftikhar Kanawati's CHRONIC GRIEF, where torn fabrics and layered textures embody grief, rebellion, and resilience, pushing fashion into raw and emotional territories.

A native of Tripoli, Lebanon, Iftikhar, Class of 2025, explores avant-garde fashion, constantly challenging conventional design boundaries.
