Rabih Kayrouz 
From the F/W 2014 Collection ‘Barbès- Batroun’
Off white flanel dress and check print dress 
2014

This collection is a story of two cities, Barbès and Batroun, coming together in a mixture of prints and a rich blend of culture. Barbès is a Métro stop servicing a culturally diverse, predominantly North African neighborhood in the northeast corner of Paris; Batroun, one of the oldest cities in the world, is now a popular vacation destination in Lebanon and where Kayrouz spent summer holidays growing up. Lebanese by origin and partly Paris- based, Kayrouz celebrated his hybrid culture in this collection.
