MCM CHAMPIONS LOCAL TALENT, UNVEILING A COLLABORATION WITH HANAN KAMAL

In line with supporting local talent and empowering women, luxury lifestyle brand MCM unveils a regional collaboration with Saudi Artist and Singer, Hanan Kamal.

Reimagining traditions from the Middle East, Hanan combines cultural codes along with her take on modern graffiti, presenting a limited-edition collection of 5 artistically decorated bags that will be exclusively available on Ounass.ae.

The collection features unexpected yet spectacular pairings of motifs in vibrant bursts of color that inject fun into every piece.

It celebrates freedom and diversity, and shares stories inspired by everyday life and culture in the Middle East, while still capturing the bold, aspirational and adventurous energy of the MCM brand.

The use of rich hues of pink, green, blue and yellow, intermingled with neutral shades of black and white adds to the versatility of the collection, designed keeping the new generation in mind.

The collection highlights Hanan’s vision of bold expression, while still paying homage to her roots, represented through culturally relevant symbols such as the crescent moon; marking the beginning of the month of Ramadan, and the falcon; representing courage, determination and heritage.

Each bag tells a story, illustrated on MCM’s iconic visetos print in black and the brand’s classic colorway, cognac.

“Art and music are both elements that move me, making this an effortless collaboration with a brand that speaks the same language. This collection celebrates diversity and culture, while empowering the new generation to escalate their creative freedom to their highest potential; there are no rules here, and there is no dress code.” – Hanan

"One of the intentions behind our new initiative is of course to collaborate on product with an upcycling idea. But this project is also a dialogue – about the power of creativity, about the important topic of sustainability and how the current crisis has influenced us and our creative process. Hanan Kamal is the first creative talent in the Middle East region joining our Global Creative Platform sharing her energy and immense creativity with us. I love this interaction between creatives around the world and the brand." - Dirk Schönberger, Global Creative Officer, MCM

The MCM collection by Hanan Kamal is a regional collaboration that is part of the brand’s Global Creative Platform. The collection is now available exclusively on Ounass.ae.
