REEMAMI Turns Memories Into an Immersive Fashion Exhibition

Palestinian designer Reema Al Banna unveiled REEMAMI’s latest collection, As I Remember It, through an immersive exhibition at The JamJar that blurred the lines between fashion presentation, art installation, and performance. Instead of a traditional runway, guests stepped into a dreamlike world where friends of the brand wore the collection while moving freely through grassy landscapes, artworks, personal archives, and interactive installations. Drawing on childhood memories, Palestinian heritage, family photographs, and the label’s own visual archive dating back to 2015, the collection reimagines past REEMAMI prints alongside new designs through playful fabric combinations, sculptural details inspired by the traditional agal, and bold print-on-print compositions. The experience was further brought to life with a communal tablescape by The Art Supper’s Farah Tajeddin and a Palestinian-inspired menu by Zinn Bistro’s Dalia Dogmoch, reinforcing REEMAMI’s ongoing commitment to merging fashion, art, storytelling, and cultural memory into a single immersive experience.
