A Garden of Symphony

March 30, 2011

An event which marries art, philanthropy and fashion

  • Text by Holly Williams

March 20 marked the first day of spring so it was apt that luxury concept store Symphony chose this date to launch their new Spring/Summer 2011 season with a fashionable in-store soiree. An artistic collaboration with Moaza Matar was revealed for the first time; two windows featuring a deconstructed interpretation of the stores SS11 creative campaign. Ready-to-wear from British designer Richard Nicoll and Milanese Luisa Beccaria are encircled by 3D butterflies, canvas, flowers and 2D monochromic elements. The event also helped raise money for World Downs Syndrome Day; donating a total of 15,000dhs to The UAE Downs Syndrome Association.

The installation entitled "The Garden of Symphony" will on display until July 2011.
