The Zay Initiative X DIDI Dubai, Alternative Fashion Histories: Yemen

Through studying historical clothing and the origins and evolution of fashion, we can better understand a changing society. Conventional fashion history is predominantly focused on Western theories and context. Through a collaboration with the Zay Initiative, students at DIDI have the opportunity to explore new and lesser known fashion histories, rooted in the MENA region. This research into the past will be used for predicting future fashion trends as well as providing inspiration for innovative new designs.
