The Art Alphabet Collection

When Art Meets Fashion 

The idea

Words have a special kind of beauty and a deep impact on our ears when we hear them. When we see their formation, we feel the beauty of an artistic scene that is unique in its charm. At every moment of inspiration, the beauty of Arabic letters and language is still captivating us. Between the curves of each letter, there is a world of hidden beauty that only he who has mastered the love of these letters can enter this world. The Art Alphabet collection is here to express that the beauty of the Arabic language is far beyond what we see, it is a feeling that touches our soul to bring back every beautiful memory about our past and our heritage. In this collection, Moonlight Concept Fashion House was able to transform masterpieces into wearable art. 

 

Creating a New Form of Art 

The fashion designer Muna Al Kaabi and the artist Ali Hassan,

 

A prominent figure in Qatar's art world, Ali Hassan is an exceptional artist. He developed a more free-flowing form of calligraphy, as he finds ‘worldly beauty’ in each letter. Ali Hassan explored his passion for the Arabic letter “noon” for over three decades, producing enormous collections of artwork. 

At the same time, Mrs. Muna Al Kaabi, the creative director and founder of Moonlight Concept Fashion House, has mastered the love of these letters, the love of language, and the love of the heritage, which she works hard to transfer to the present with a special symbolism to be a passage between the multiple worlds of art, beauty and elegance. She was inspired by Ali Hassan artworks and created designs that incorporated elements of these pieces of art, so a wonderful artistic mixture was formed.

 From the letters, a world of beauty, art and magic flows.  That is reflected in the collection designs issued by Moonlight Fashion House under the name "The Art Alphabet".

Inspiration: 

The Art Alphabet collection is a true expression of how the artistic vision is unlimited and never fails to captivate us with a new form of beauty. Muna Al Kaabi is still true to her vision, which is “Art is a mission that can never be underestimated, and heritage is the roots that express our authenticity and ancient history.”  In the artworks of the artist Ali Hassan, she saw a source of inspiration for her upcoming designs. As she considers the Arabic letters in their curves and lines hold within them a different world of inspiration. For her, as art is an expression of our utmost spirituality, so is fashion, and both are created for all humanity to add a touch of charm. The art Alphabet collection 2022 is not only about garments, it is about a new form of art. In every piece produced, you can see a form of art within folds. 

Additionally, she was inspired by nature's colours and the letters' shapes. Where we see orange, yellow and blue and the pastel colours. On the other hand, the cuts are well-defined and tend toward a flowing pattern. Furthermore, we see in The Art Alphabet collection a new form of suits in different colours. 

The fabrics used include crêpe, cotton blend combined with pure silk. The designs are ornamented with diversified motifs and hand embroidery highlights, with multi-toned embroidery highlights.
