Early this month, as Paris Fashion Week was winding down, Cynthia Merhej transformed her apartment into a showroom and put as brave a face as possible on a situation that already was challenging and only has gotten worse since. “When things are bad, it’s good to have something to throw yourself into,” said the Beirut-based designer. “We’re very grateful to have distraction from the reality of things, and fashion is a great distraction.
By the same token, fashion has always been a formidable vehicle for resistance. A year ago, as war broke out in Gaza in the wake of Hamas’s attack on Israel, Merhej said she sought to counter anxiety and depression by designing clothes that would be light and liberating. Parachute material, sourced from an Italian mill specializing in technical fabrics, offered timely inspiration. As she manipulated it, the designer realized that the material could resemble flowers, poppies in particular.
For spring, the twin ideas of poppies and parachutes resulted in some charming pieces that somehow managed to blend military references and nostalgia-tinged romance. A pointillist camouflage, for example, here appears as an asymmetrical cascade of a denim skirt or as an ample top with an origami-like flower detail. A new iteration of a house signature, a fitted dark green jacket with barrel sleeves, and a couple of shirred off-the-shoulder tops looked simple yet special.
